Koffelbourg Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Hello everyone, Today as I turned my keyboard on and started to play a few notes, I noticed that some notes were heavily distorted, while some more discretely. This is the first time that it happened in about 4 years of playing. I tried different tones, with and whithout headset, turning if off and on a few times, checking the settings, but nothing worked. I recorded myself to show you what it sounds like, at 1min it's very noticeable ( I know I play this piece too fast...). If anyone knows how to fix this I'd be very grateful!

Joe Muscara Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 It sounds like pitch bend to me, but you're nowhere near the bend wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I will agree with Joe. Sounds like the pitch wheel is malfunctioning. Try moving the wheel up and down a few times and see if it bends smoothly. The pot may need cleaning. Moving the wheel a few times the full throw might self clean it. Worth a try. If that does not help the keyboard will need servicing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
