Thanks Paul, I'm basically coming up on a year, but the voiding of warranty's not an issue, cause I don't even think it's serviceable in Canada (since I bought it in the US) - just wondering if anyone has actually tried to do it themselves at all.

How can one replace/fix the valve?

I bought my Korg shipped from the US (I'm Canadian) and I'm worried that the warranty won't be honoured in Canada. My sound crackles or cuts out when the amp modelling is on (but is otherwise fine when the modeling is off) - all signs point to a bad valve. Any experience on how to change or fix the ...

I have this Gatorcase, and I love it - good padding, hard corenered frame (but soft and light) - I still treat it with care, since it's not a fully hardbodied case. http://www.gatorcases.com/Default.aspx? ... ogID=13191

I have a similar problem - been Googling for a while about it, but not too many people seem to have this issue, I guess? Mine is mainly cut out, but sometimes I can tap it and get it back...

SV1 tube cutting out problem

Hey all, I'm noticing when I play my SV1 with the amp models turned on, more often than not the sound will cut out (particularly when I'm 'digging in'). Upon shutting the amp modeling off, the sound returns, and turning it back on again seems to reset the sound....does this sound like I have a bad ...

I'm grabbing this Gator Case for my 88-key SV1 (not fully sure if it'll fit yet) but it seems like the best of both worlds in terms of a tough case, without having to spend the 300+ for a fully hard one.

Thanks, lads. Much appreciated--I do actually have a M-audio Firewire 1814 interface, but as I just moved I was hoping to take the easy way out and use my laptop (which doesn't have a firewire slot) and not have to dig out the desktop computer yet hehe. Can't win 'em all. Thanks again!

Inability to record what I'm playing through USB?

Just got my SV188 (love it), but can't seem to simply plug in through USB and have my music software record what I'm playing. It seems to send MIDI signals ok (I can control software instruments no problem), but the computer won't recognize the SV1 as an actual instrument to record on its own. I can ...

I heard them in person.. They sounded really good to me when I was considering buying them for my sv-1. I instead bought some Alesis M1 Active 520 USB because of the usb interface. thanks for the info--and the low end of the sounds is ok, even on a 5" monitors? I was considering the groovetubes ...

Perhaps I should clarify, it's the Samson Resolv a5--I can't find many detailed reviews, particularly as it related to use with keyboards.

Sv1 and the Samson a5 monitor deal?

Hello all, I'm new to the Korg community, and hope to get even more involved because I'm on the brink of obtaining an 88-key SV-1. Korg Canada is currently offering a holiday deal where they throw in a pair of Samson a5 monitors (around a 250$ value, from what I've seen)--anyone have any opinions on ...
