WOODSYNTH Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I have owned an XW-P1 for a few years now and just recently it has developed a stuck note problem. When I turn on the synth and it is in solo synth mode the first note I press stays stuck until I turn the synth off. When I turn it back on and push a note in solo synth the same thing happens. Rarely the note that is stuck will stay on and the power button is unresponsive so I have to unplug the unit to get it to stop. This does not happen in any other mode-just solo synth mode. I have done a reset sequence on the keyboard and the problem still exists. Any suggestions anyone? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Is anything connected other than the power supply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOODSYNTH Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Dear BradMZ, The only other connections are the two line out which I have plugged into a mixer. Thanks WOODSYNTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Does it matter which key you press when it gets stuck? Does it matter which solo synth tone you use? Does it get stuck with all of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOODSYNTH Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 It doesn't matter which key it is it will get stuck. I have not used any solo synth tones beside the one that comes up as the default setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Check out the other solo synth tones and let us know what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOODSYNTH Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Hi BradMZ, The problem seems to have worked itself out. Turned the unit off and on a couple of times and played on different solo synth settings while on. The last time I turned it on it was in the default setting so I tried it out and no stuck notes. This keyboard sat idle for about 6 months while I did other things musically so maybe it just needed to be "exercised" again to work the bug out. If I have any future problems I will certainly let you know. Also, I haven't downloaded the upgraded firmware yet either(still running on version1.0). I have been told by someone at Casio the easiest way to do this is after I've downloaded the upgraded firmware to put it on a data card and upload it to the keyboard via the data card. Do you agree with this? Thanks, WOODSYNTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
