SOURCE: roland juno-d, keys are either too loud or too

Normally you have to clean the conductive rubber "pills" AND the circuit board traces they get pressed down on.

USE ONLY 99% isoprophyl alcohol on Q-Tips to do the cleaning and be gentle.

Use of other product like deoxit and other contact cleaners will wreck the contact material.

Read pages starting with 49 in your user's manual.

You MUST format the USB flash in the GW-8 before it can be used. Formating in a computer MAY b e inadequate as sometimes the formats have special quirks.

Also pay attention to the MAXIMUM file name length... It is 16 characters MAX !!!!

OK... It is literally impossible for the unit to "go out of tune" as it is crytal controlled... HOWEVER what is probablly happening is the PITCH BENDER is getting into the mix somehow.
If the centering on the pitch bend control is sticking or is loose, this would likely be the problem.
Do some tests with the pitch bender to see if you can detect either a mechanical or offset condition of the control.

My casio px555r has eight consecutive notes which are twice as loud as all the other keys and not touch sensitive. It is the same for all the sounds. When I turn the sensitivity control to off, the...

Hi, There are two contacts for each key. one makes contact before the other, the time between the two determines the time the key takes to be depressed, hence the touch.
Usually the contacts need cleaning, but in this case as itis 8 notes it may be the common keyboard scanning matrix. The matrix is 8 x ..up to whatever so check the line/column connection, or the associated diode.
Usually this is an easy fix, just time consuming taking the instrument to bits.
Good Luck, Chris the Fader

One key sounds louder than the others

Hi, This is very likely to be a dirty key contact.
If the loud key is not touch sensitive or by turning the touch off, if all the keys are the same volume then this points to a dirty key contact.
All the best, Chris the Fader.

Yamaha psr 295

Hi, This is probably due to worn rubber contacts. The sound is switched by pressing a key which in turns press a carbon contact on the PCB under the key. In time these wear out and need to be replaced.

Firstly open up the keyboard and locate the rubber contacts, check to see if each one is seated squarely, if they are not seat straight then this can create the problem you mention.

If all are OK then you will need to replace the strip which is causing a problem.

Spares are available from many sources including :

Roland EP50 F sharp does'nt work.All other keys are fine

EP-50's are notorious for problems with either the 4.65 voltage feed to the velocity sensitive keys or failure of the small zenner diaodes. Each key has a pair fo split circles on the circuit board under it. When you hit the key you connect each side of the circles and the harder you hit the keys the quicker the circuits close the louder the sound. Problem is if the voltage to either circle fails, due to bad solder, scratch on circuit board, failed diaode then the sound disappears. The fix is simple if you are knowledgeable on solder on circuit boards, can use a multimeter and can dissassemble and reassemble the keyboard. If you have to take it to a repair shop it is probably not worth fixing as this is not one of the better Roland products

I have a Yamaha PSR-S700. Recently, the touch sensitivity in one of the keys stopped working. Very little pressure applied would cause the note to sound as if the touch sensitivity was off completely. Now...

You MAY be confusing touch sensitivity with VELOCITY sensing. Touch sensitivity is PRESSURE put on AFTER the note sounds that causes modulation. VELOCITY is what is used for example to control the loudness of pianoo notes depending how fast they are struck. VELOCITY sensing is done by using TWO contacts at every key... one closes first. IF one of these gets dirty, FULL velocity will be sensed and it will be LOUD. The contacts can be cleaned using ONLY 99% isoprophyl alcohol and Qtips after MUCH disassembly of the keyboard. The contacts are conductive rubber pills in silicone rubber domes. Clean boththe contacts and the circuit traces they pres down onto.
