Polarity

Just a word of warning....happened to me the other night.Just a little quick & dirty heads up, in case it happens to someone else.
It was "panick city" in the middle of one particular song, but I made it throught the night.

btw.....Merry Christmas everyone.....or whatever you may or may not celebrate.
See you in 2006.

What Happened?????

Oops...forgot to get to the ugly details.....
"Hey...it's an age thing..."

I inadvertently switched the polarity within my T3, and when I went to use my sustain/damper pedal...the darn thing stayed on.
Makes for some pretty "ugly" keyboard solos.
Spent the first break trying to isolate the problem. Managed to diagnose it correctly and was back underway for the second set, but it was certainly embarassing for a while there.

I favor the North Pol, this time of year.


I think I did that on the PSR3000 and had to keep the pedal pressed to the floor to get it to stop sustaining

Age got nothin' to do with it Shboom.
Last year I took my Motif ES8 on stage and instead of taking one of the "+" polarity pedals I grabbed one of the pedals that I was using with my Korg KBs. Plugged it in and then discovered that the polarity on my pedal was a "-". Right in the middle of the song too! Since the MO can't switch PD polarity I unplugged the pedal before the next song started and of coarse the sound stayed on. I had to kil the power in the middle of another song and thankfully the sustain got reset. usually it has to reset when you just unplug the pedal but I guess "luck" was on my side that day....
