Excellent, EXCELLENT video and very informative—and you're a brave man than I! I have one of these machines and luckily, is in pretty good working order (fingers crossed). You mention this self-diagnostic feature in the synth and was wondering how you access that? Thanks again!
I have a dead key on my 2 year old Fantom X. I'll be opening her up tomorrow to find what the issue is.
The pitch bend is also a little wobbley (in sound, not physically) . And for some strange reason I'm no longer getting any aftertouch response from any of the keys. Any thoughts?
SUPER helpful video, didnt have any issues with the keybed but i had an issue with jumping fader values and dead cursors. just ran to frys and got some contact cleaner!
I had a similar problem with my Korg Triton LE. There is a spring attacted the to end of the key inside. Make sure it is still connected, or just wiggle it around and make sure its doing what its suppose to do.
Nice tutorial,I had to refurbish my JD800 and most of the keybed,although its not a massive job,The spares are becoming hard to get hold of,Roland no longer have many of the Parts availible,and you have to be carfeul when replacing the Keybed parts as Roland changed the circuits under the keys and the Board that connects the ribbon for the AT part way through its production run,so you need make sure you get the correct parts if replacing any of them.
my juno-d did go wrong 3 keys sticking at max volocity,,apparently it was a fault with the first units shipped,,took it back to my roland dealer,,a straight swap for a brand new one
good job

I'm still working on my jd800. It has suffered the "Red Epoxy of Death" where the red goo oozes everywhere... should be fun.

I have my own music made with the classic JD-800. Cut and paste these titles into the Youtube bar and kindly watch and rate:
CHIPTUNE: COMMODORE 64, HAMMOND B4, ROLAND JD-800; "COOTY"
COMMODORE 64 AND ROLAND JD-800 - "VOLVA"
Thanks.

Now, why would you want to SPAM every JD800 video with links to your own JD800 pages? Stop the childish advertising........

Going after my JD-800. Did the contact cleaner fix your jumpy sliders?

I used contact cleaner and compressed air and it helped a lot.

Thanks for this. There aren't very many who take such effort.

Heh, good video, I hope my Juno-D doesn't go wrong.. Looks like it takes a fair amount of time to fix a good keyboard that's old
