Please help - Trinity V3

Post by jaykris »

I recently bought a Trinity 88key version. I also own a 61key version. The person that I bought it from says the sequencer was working fine. However, when I switch to sequencer mode, start/stop won't lit up when pressed and won't play the songs that I loaded from the other trinity. I believe it could be because of dust. Any tips to troubleshoot it? Thanks a lot

As you say, it could just be the internal contacts of the switch (button).

You could dismantle it and either try to clean the contacts (where possible) or probably better still replace the switch.

If the LED does not indicate play/stop on the key, then it might be a somewhat more serious problem, but probably fixable (although some fine soldering skills might be required).

Me too, I'd suggest you to have a look inside, check also for water or other liquid damage - sometimes residues of spilled soft drinks might eat up the traces on the PCB.

Most likely - the replacement buttons! I changed all 37 buttons...
