In Reply to: Keys not working on my QS8 - easy to fix or not? posted by Jason on December 15, 2001 at 18:29:04:
: Hi
: The bottom 3 keys on my QS8 have decided not to sound ever since my mate sleepwalked his way into my room and peed on my beloved synth :-0
: Also, F4 usually no longer sounds, except when it does, it sounds at MAX velocity. Very annoying.
: Anyway, does anyone out there know whether this is something that I can try to sort myself - the unit is no longer under warranty, so if it's a simple thing about removing a few screws and cleaning a few contacts, I'd like to save myself a bit of cash and do it myself, rather than pay a fortune for the damned thing to be collected, repaired and returned to me.
: Anyone with any ideas about this, your time will be truly appreciated.
: Many thanks in advance

Jason,
Have a look at this thread:

Once your in, maybe you can eyeball it and figure what to do next. The keys section is a pretty complicated assembly, but if you're technically competent...well, you decide.
Good luck,
Chris
