I will be much happier if this is a dumb user (me) error rather then a hardware problem.
I rarely use the mod wheel.

EVERYBODY does that at least once!

I agree Don. Especially if you really don't use the mod wheel. When I lived in Mesa AZ I had a buddy who played (Suzuki's) top home keyboard for the time, it had a mod wheel--which he never used. He called me up at 11pm and said he spent the last 3 hours trying to figure out what was wrong, and almost packed the thing up to return it. Turns out it he bumped the mod wheel, and since it wasn't a feature he used, didn't think to check it. That's another reason I like the joystick better.

I actually taped down the Modulation wheel on my PSR-2000 since I never used it, and it was annoying to hear modulation whenever I would move the wheel by accident.

I'm sure I'm not the first to notice this, but Yamaha changed the mod wheel functionality on the PSR-3000; I do not tape it down on my PSR-3000. The difference is that on the PSR-3000, the mod wheel has no effect on sound until it is moved from where it was at power-on. Try it and see for yourself.

Starkeeper,

What's the verdict with the 3000? Was it the Modulation wheel, or was the keyboard defective?

Inquiring minds would like to know!

Good Luck,

Gary

Gary,
It must have been the modulation wheel.
Now that it sounds right, he can't tear himself away from making music ...

Probably hasn't slept yet either

Hahahaha. I've been playing up a storm. I was on vacation for a week, so didn't see these posts.
IT WAS THE MOD WHEEL.
I am a happy camper. Thanks ED, Ian, Squeak, Semi-live.
I love the Zone. and my PSR3000

Paint a little white dot on the wheel (if it is black) or black if vice versa, and it becomes very easy at a glance to see the wheel's position.......

sorry wrong post on wrong subject
