Tony:
I think most of the Audya's problems are are related to the Operating System and a very few related to Hardware problems.
I think Ketron's integration of real audio in their OS is probably a fairly sophisticated technology and they just HAVEN'T perfected the OS yet.
What is confusing is that some of us have very similar problems and some of us don't.
I have NEVER experienced a freeze up, I have never had a INT PHASE ERROR.
All the functions of the keyboard that I use work fine. My only problem I've had really is the audio out and once in a great while the style playing will skip or jump time. However, that has not happened since all my ROM Check Sum are now showing OK.
Yesterday after unplugging and re-plugging in EVERY Connection in the keyboard, it played flawlessly.
I turned on and off the keyboard at least 20 times trying to get the Left Channel NOT to work. I tapped and bumped the keyboard and played a gig last night...NO PROBLEMS! In fact the machine sounded better than it ever has!
I use two studio monitors on stands controlled by a separate Mackie mixer. Both Right and Left speakers are 2 feet from me at ear level. I can hear perfectly just the keyboards mix, every little nuance, every sound that pans left to right, after touch sounds, DSP's, etc.
Last night I had NO cutting in and out, NO flutter, nothing, the audio was perfect!
What a pleasant change. It would appear my problem was caused by a poor connection.
I've worked with and enjoyed quality audio components most of my life. Most of us know how delicate patch cables and connectors at the connection point can be. Dirt, dust, humidity, smokey environment can all play havoc with electronics and metal to metal connections. Just the slightest spec of oxidation or corrosion on a contact point will cause problems.
I'm hoping my audio out problem is now GONE! Time will tell.
I will continue to post updates. I'm playing a gig again tonight and every night this week except this Wednesday.
I will be thrilled to report if the week is GLITCH FREE!
Jim

Taking out and replugging all connectors to/from the SOUND board should fix this.
Thanks,
AJ So customers should get ready to open a brand new keyboard to disconnect and reconnect different cables inside as well as pray that this is the medicine to solve problems who should not be there at all? Where is Ketrons Quality Control during the production when ship keyboards that need this sort of treatment, and what about warranties etc when customers open up and start "mess around" inside? To me, it sure looks like it's a missmatch between price and quality ... and to be honest, I'm a kind of happy that I have'nt bougt any Audya so far. Cheers GJ

The KB should go back right now, but I know it won't I am still not at all convinced this is plugs or cables.I still think it is software. I have never moved my Audya and it INT PHASE ERRORED and locked up. Tony. Thanks for the reply. Are you saying it should be sent back because Ketron are aware of whats causing this problem?? If thats the case then why is there not a FIX available if its a software problem. And why will no one say for sure that its a fault and give us some indication of whats wrong. The way i look at it is this. I have spent 2 months programing this module ready for the road and live gigs. If I send it back what is going to happen? Are they going to switch it on a nd off and say--well theres no problem here---it works !! OR, are they aware of this fault--is it a hard drive fault? is it a software fault? And more importantly what will happen to my 2 months of hard work getting this exactly as I want it to sound--will that be lost? There are just too many implications here to comprehend and its just a little scary for me I know you are right when you say send it back--but how can i take that chance ? Rusty
