PA800 - Strange Problem
Posted: Fri May 20, 2022 10:25 pm
Hey - I hope someone can help me before I start investing in an upgrade.
My PA800 freezes after spinning the tempo control or press any buttons. I have a video at the bottom so you can see 2min.
Here is what I've done so far:
1. Factory reset
2. Install default sets
3. Some Styles do not play after loading
4. Find the one that does and hit start/stop
5. When I spin the tempo/value the RT/ACC control shows up on the screen and instead of tempo it moves that instead (check out the video at 1:20 mark)
6. Then becomes unresponsive - sometimes shots down on its own
After that either boots or it does not boot, stays at Korg Pa 800 screen, few times turning on/off and it boots but no sounds comes, but sometimes it does but same issue happens.
Now, question
1. is this HDD problem or memory problem (I was planning to upgrade to 256mb - buying a full kit)
2. Is this board problem or something else more serious
3. Is this mechanical issue (dust or something else)?
Did anyone had this issue before or seen this before?
Any help would be appreciated
