Thank you for the video. I have a GEM WK1 in a the sound board and the power boards are well but all the key note buttons do not work. Kindly help me out.
I want to get those faders so they will send fader controls when attached either via midi or USB. It would be so awsome of those buttons could be assignable as daw control buttons so that you could toggle between internal and control mode for th access to internal keyboard functions or for use as a controller like modern USB midi keyboards
That was very informative thank you. On another point, would you know where i can get a replacement loom for the led display. when you opened yours up, it was the blue ended one. mine is damaged there is no contacts visible.
Unfortunately no, in this situations I try to find a repair manual from the manufacturer in order to search for a part number and look something up by that or find an use/broken one to steal the part I need. Hope this help
ciao, ho sostituito l'HD della mia tastiera GEM WK4 con una schedina-lettore SD. Fino a che ho la tastiera accesa la SD la vede senza problemi per cui procedo a salvare i miei dati, ma se spengo la tastiera e poi la riaccendo mi dice "Disk access error / operation aborted". Tuttavia i dati rimangono nella scheda SD ma la tastiera non li vede più almeno che formatto nuovamente e devo rifare tutto nuovamente. Dove sbaglio? grazie
Hi I have a WK2 GEM my problem is display screen when pressing power on all good but screen light is good it used to say wait then start but this week it just shows a yellow lit up screen but nothing else as I have no contact for p.aying music have good day
Hi, thank you! I don't think that you can add sounds. If I remember correctly the only "port" for uploading stuff is the floppy disk one. It should be used for instrumental midi tracks
Wäre i become nee Batterien?I have found Dome Mode Errors found in the Gem wk8 Like this...Troubleshooting Boards,death Drive Transistors For Display,solder contacts,CPU Motherboard contacts,defekt Midi Boards under the Keys,defekt Panel switched and Data wheels,defekt Pitch Bending wheels and Note other Things.Good performing Video.regards Matthias😯👈
May i please ask why it’s important to change the capacitor? My apologies, i have an equinox on my side that just had it’s battery removed and there’s no sound playing
Good to know the cause of the problems 😃 The capacitor in my keyboard was swollen and it could be leaking electrolytic liquid that is corrosive and could ruin the board. That's why, this kind of capacitors are called electrolytic. It's always good to replace them if you suspect they're going bad
Unfortunately I can't help you since I've bought the battery in a local store more than a year ago (and I don't have any trace for it) and the keyboard was returned to the owner and I don't have access to it anymore.
I purchased 4 x 1.2v lithium ION 600mah AA batteries and a Battery box with the positive/negative wires attached (about 10€ in total for both batteries and battery holder) I removed the "tampon" battery and soldered the wires to the new battery box to the original "legs" that were soldered to the original battery and the wire were long enough to place the battery box in the right hand speaker compartment. It has charged and worked perfectly for over 18 months now.
@@Vangelismusic1 yes, that's perfect! I took advice on the mah from the Facebook page. That page saved me, I almost threw the keyboard away when the backlighting cathode tube for the display died, such an easy fix even for me and that's saying something
Honestly I've found it in an electronic store near me but, depending on where you are, in pretty sure you can find them in an online on physical shop, look for NiCd cell batteries with the legs that fits your board
I know the Errors😯I have 2 Wk8,many Others Problems i self repaired,Displays Changes...Gebootet..Key Goes good,brilliant Sound Source.

Hello Where can I find a screen for Gem wk8I have a screen that does not work
Honestly I don't know but are you sure it's broken? Maybe the connector is broken or oxidised and may be fixed
Can you please give the exact specs on the battery? Is it 4.8v 280mah ?
Unfortunately I can't help you since I've bought the battery in a local store more than a year ago (and I don't have any trace for it) and the keyboard was returned to the owner and I don't have access to it anymore.

Thanks! for the input I finally bought 4 triple AA's in a plastic wrap that was 4.8v at 600mah I guess that will do.@@anthonywilson508

@@Keepthingsalive Ok, thanks for the info!
hi, i should replace the battery, could you tell me where to buy it?
I've found it at a local electronic shop, I've showed them the old battery and they had a replacement but i think you can find it on ebay.

Hey there, I can try but that wasn't my keyboard and I only had it for the repair you saw in the video. I don't know if I can be of any help.
