Circuit Overview:
     64 voice keyboard version of X5DR w/ 8MB pcm samples. X5 less common. Lush sounds from mid 90's AI^2 technology.


Service Tips:
     I've found most of these units to be fairly rock solid circuitry wise. Abused units sometimes have solder problems. I've fixed the few I've had in by just going over suspected areas of the circuit boards that were affected by stress. When Jack for power supply breaks I use std. 2.1mm barrel and sell the weird pin-in-center korg PS. Neg. center standard 12V 800mA adequate.



















Parts: I have some parts that are the same so feel free to ask what the current stock is on a given thing. Some of the less common parts are getting quite hard to find though. THings pop up on ebay now and then.. Contact
