really weird problems with display

Post by jewelsf »

I am having some really weird issues with the display screen on my x50. There is a weird staticky line in the middle of the display. Everything on the left of the staticky line displays normally, and everything on the right of the line displays backwards. Also when I change the sound sets rather than switching the display to the new sound set, it is almost like it is opening a new tab, so I can see a little of the original sound, and a little of the new sound. i will take a picture and post it. I hope someone might be able to suggest a solution!

Sorry I can't suggest any solution at the moment but just to let you know I have exactly the same problem as you described. Is this a huge coincidence or wonder if anybody else has had this issue? I am going to open it up soon to see if there are any clues and will let you know if I find anything.

EDIT (6-3-2014) - After a few "Gigs", the display is working normally again. I think it could have been a loose wire or bad solder joint inside. At least it is not a faulty component this time.

i guess its korg x50s major problem.. weak LCD...


I use my x50 for almost 6 months,
sometimes Im getting the same problem... unreadble.. sometimes no display at all (but generating sound)

and sometimes, it works fine again.... I dont understand...

I already tried openning the keyboard and refreshed the LCD (by just touching, detaching and attaching it again)
-- note that everytime Im doin this, it will work fine again......


I guess the problem is a cause of carrying problem..when you take it to a gig, maybe the vibrations are causing this....
- to prove that this is wrong, I hope some user will comment that they are also having problem at home, without carrying it to other place....
