blinking lights NS3

Post by sirhenri »

Hello,

My Nord stage 3 compact has blinking lights that don't stop. HELP!!
Evrything works though. I saw a simular post for the NS2 but not the NS3.

Does anyone have an idea to solve this.

Thanx for any reply,

Henri

Hi,

maybe you should post a video (as it was done in the post you linked) or indicate exactly "what" (which light/led) is blinking, for anyone to be able to give you a meaningful answer.

I am afraid some component has failed here... Is it just the LEDs randomly lighting up or is their function briefly enable when they light? For example, if the Organ engine's LED gets briefly light up, do the sound come out as well?

I would suspect that it's just the LEDs, but still it would indicate some hardware malfunction... I am afraid you have to send it for service...

Thanks for Your replay.
Everything works normale. It is only the blinking lights.

Hello

Maybe wait for two days? (end of Christmas)
;)


(Don't get me wrong, I'm not laughing at you and feel sorry for your trouble)

Best regards

Well, the "fortunate part amidst the misfortune", as we say in Italian, is that it's "only" the LEDs. Probably something wrong with the LED circuitry and nothing else.

I know the idea of sending it back is depressing, but I personally wouldn't open it up even if I had the knowledge to fix it myself. If it's a Stage 3 it must be relatively new: when did you get it and from whom? Is it still under warranty?

...And also not the best time in the year to ship anything in general... I guess waiting some days more, until January, would be best to avoid cosmic delays in shipping.
