Korg I3 Volume Problem?....pls help

Post by theholyweed »

Hi all,

Iv got a Korg i3 that was suffering from a scratchy master volume slider pot... When moving the slider it produces a scratching noise when moved and then the output from the keyboard totally cuts out 2/3rds from the faders travel..I ordered a replacement and fitted it the other day and im having exactly the same problem..A similar thing happened to an allen & heath dj mixer I had and it turns out it was a bad ground... Could anyone help me with this or point me in the right direction? bad coupling cap maybe?

I should add that this is happening on the line out & the headphone out (which is very weak)

I had a similar problem on my korg I-3 and it turned out that both the headphone and line out sockets need re soldering
