Is the transformer hum repairable or do I junk it?

Everything about Nord keyboards in general; which one to choose, the sound manager, sample editor, and general discussion about the sample and piano libraries.

Is the transformer hum repairable or do I junk it?

Post by Whythedamnhum »

Hi folks. So my 2 year old Stage2 ex now makes the famous and longstanding Nord transformer hum that makes my keyboard unusable to me as I’m studio bound these days....

I’ve read all the posts here on the topic but haven’t come across any repair protocol that either has succeeded or that I can follow. Or what parts can be replaced, if any.

The US distributor implies there is no fix and something the repair shop can’t rectify, but his communique was a lot of nonsequitor....

Thank you for any info about whether to fix it or use it as a new red small boat anchor.

For the record, I otherwise love this keyboard....But technology is too advanced for this problem to have not been cured years ago....

Finally, I apologize if I’ve broken any rules of this forum. I’m a newb to this neighborhood.....

Cheers,

I would contact Pablo Mastodon on this board. He could give you practical advice, either way.
I think I have gear issues ....
