I know it's a PITA, and detracts from the playing enjoyment, but with the Audya in its' fragile state, Ketron probably need as much intelligent informed feedback as is humanly possible, to better help them squash these bugs. All it might take is ONE user to report a reliable sequence of events that causes a lockup (including the speed at which you make OS requests), and they MIGHT be able to squash the bug once and for all.
Having accepted the responsibility of being a 'beta tester' whether you knew it or not by buying the damn thing, given how good it sounds, knuckling down and making a strong effort to remember EVERY button push and OS call (even more than what chord you play or melody you play) will probably in the end result in you starting to have some real confidence in the product as Ketron fix the issues.
I went through the same process with Roland (although no bugs were able to freeze it), and a community of users determined to assist Ketron find and squash the bugs WILL make the instrument better. It just takes patience, determination and concentration (especially while you 'noodle'). I helped run the G70 Bug Forum, and can assure you that it CAN be done. It's not enjoyable at the time, but after the bugs are fixed, you can enjoy playing in the knowledge that, in whatever small way you got involved, YOU were a part of that enjoyment...Diki,
You are heading right back to the cooler, calm down, not even you with all you years of experience would be able to know what button you pressed to get the Audya to lock up, the chap who played it yesterday has been playing Kb for the last 35 years professionally. It is simple Diki the bloody thing should not lock up and that’s the end of it, it is still not fit for propose, don’t look any deeper into it, it needs fixing. Now about not loading the OS3 on properly, how do you need to hold your mouth when you are doing it. You know this site is a bit like the justice in the UK for Murder you will get 100 hours community service or a leg tag, I expected Diki to be away for light years, I am glad he is back, but Diki put the guns away. Don’t shoot me I am only the poor messenger .
Regards
Tony
