KORG PA800 distorted samples

Here is the weird thing, had the latest 2.01 version on my KORG PA800 and recently a alot of samples not all sound distorted? I don't think that would be a RAM chip or else all would be distorted, Factory are good, and a USB protected are also distorted, anyone have this experience? maybe bad MOBO? should I re-install OS? before anything else? also I cannot afford to send this keyboard anywhere, is the RAM chip under the keyboard assembly?

Well, I figured out what was the problem, since some samples were corrupted, I thought let me try not loading the USB protected key and presto! my user sample worked just fine, which means that at fault is the USB key. I bought the Korg's PAUSB01TURK, so now I have to see if I can get a replacement.

Hello Vangelismusic !
I had the same problem last year. All the styles and sounds from THE factory data worked fine just sounds in pcm users was distorted
I replaced the pcm RAM and everything work fine

My problem is not the RAM chip in the PA800, but the USB locked key, I wrote to the company and I am waiting for a reply.

Is there a version of these USBs that only contains sounds? I'm not interested in their styles, but if they're selling a "Sound" only package, that would be nice.

I bought the KORG Turk USB tha contains styles and sounds, although I use only about 30 percent of what is on there, it comes in handy for me.

are you able to pick and choose only what you like and save them in user slots, or that's not possible?
