Hi Everyone,
I received an email via friend the other day, I was wondering if anyone would have an idea what could be causing this problem.

I got him to check his modulation wheel setting, his tuning, and his scaling, but they weren't the cause.

any footswitches connected?

Thanks Alec,
I'll ask him.

Hi Rikki
I had exactly that problem on my old KN920 - and the reason was that I had knocked/dropped the keyboard whilst playing out somewhere and it had loosened the modulation wheel fixing in its cradle - if your friend wiggles the modulation wheel from side to side it temporarily corrects the half tone drop - the long term solution is to get it properly fixed, of course.

I had this problem with a KN2000 and found the only solution was to set foot switch #2 to Variation - anything but glide. Try this and see if it works.

Thanks Guys,
I'll forward these suggestions on to him and hopefully one of them will help solve his problem.

--------------------------------------------
Rikki. It was the footswitch! - I set #2 to a value other than 'glide' as
suggested and the problem has disappeared. Presumably there is a patch
from Technics to correct this bug - do you have any idea how to obtain and
apply software upgrades?

Thank you so much for your kindness - it's good to know that in today's
world there are still people who are prepared to go out of their way to help
others.

It's very much appreciated

Kind regards
Bob
