Ah Thanks Roger. I thought Mr Greenhill had passed away. But I'll try for a response.

Try going in and change your touch sensitive up and down and then to what you normally keep it. As you do this, see how the change sounds when playing a note. See if it just needed refreshing.

Awhile back, going out of my KN7000 the volume dropped on the left side. It would be OK for a minute and then drop in volume almost completely. All I had to do was work up and down a few times, the main volume and no more problem.

Hi Mark. Thanks. I did change the Touch Sensitivity in case it was that and then put it back.
When you talk about the Main Volume, you mean the normal Slider switch I presume. I saw on this Forum something about dust sometimes getting into the Sequencer Volume Slider, and fiddled with that a bit, but to no avail. I might try the Main Slider too.

I've just noticed that the casing at one end of the keyboard is damaged. My husband propped it up on the floor on its end and I noticed that top & bottom were pulling away from each other!

The reason he took it off the stand & propped it up was - wait for it !

- I've JUST GOT HOLD OF A KN7000 !!!!!!!!!


But I fully intend to try and get my beloved kn6500 sorted, still !

Welcome to the new world of KN7000 - you'll love it...

Thank you Roger! Very excited!

I bought it from the grandson of

BOB SPRULES

who was playing his kn7000 into his nineties and judging by his collection of books etc was very dedicated. HE MUST have been a member of this Forum I'd have thought!

Does anyone remember him?

Hi Katrina,
I don't have a solution for your 6500, but I assure you that after a while with the KN7 you will not worry too much about it.
Technics reign!!!

PS All your 6500 floppies will still play in the KN7. (in case you did not know).

Thanks Ray!

Yes indeed. I nearly bought a used Tyros 4, but am really glad this kn7000 came up because I wanted a superior Sequencer AND to be able to still use the Sequences I've already done. (I've noted that a few people on this Forum have tried the Tyros and then come back to kn7000 too!)

However, I don't like just throwing things away and will still look into trying to repair the kn6500 - may give it to my daughter!

Hi, sorry to say but i also have the same problem on my kn 6500
i can be playing on a piano sound and then suddenly the sound is very low and dull and lost its brightness when i press the
same memory button again it plays ok again. Don't know the cause my keyboard is getting older. Ony noticed it on the piano at the moment.

Oh no!

If I get mine diagnosed/fixed I'll let you know in case it's the same ! (Can you do the same if you get your's sorted?) May have to wait until August as very busy at the moment.

Make sure the Modulation wheel is OFF
Found today that when our KN7000 is on a certain organ drawbar setting the volumn dropped way down--- other sounds were OK

Just a thought from Dave L.
