XP-10 lost sound on some keys

My Roland XP-10 lost sound on some keys midi notes C6 - Ab6. I've tried cleaning the key strips and the board contacts and have also replaced the two flat cables that connects to the mainboard. I still cannot get a sound from these keys.

How do i cannect my roland -09 to my PC then use FL studio or audacity with midi cables?

Do you mean the Roland E-09 or another Roland product? You need a MIDI to USB In/Out converter. Make sure that the converter is supported by the manufacturer with your OS version. One example is https://www.amazon.com/Converter-LiDiVi-Professional-Keyboard-Adapter/dp/B071KLC884 . This is a USB 2.0 device that works with Windows XP through Windows 10 and Mac OS X. A few others are reviewed here: https://www.musicrepo.com/best-selling-midi-interfaces-the-ultimate-top-10/ . You may need to be connected to the internet and allow your computer to obtain drivers for other devices. Connect the cable appropriately. Turn on the Roland device and make sure that your OS sees the USB device before launching your software. Note: Audacity can only import a MIDI file as a Note Track, https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Midi . You'll need additional software to capture the MIDI from the device. Some options are listed at the bottom of the Wiki page above. You may need to try several options to find a program that you like.

The Roland E-09 manual is available here: https://www.roland.com/us/support/by_product/e-09/owners_manuals/ . Other Roland support is available here: https://www.roland.com/us/support/ .

I hope this helps. I'm not familiar with FL Studio's menu. I haven't used Audacity's MIDI features. I use the software to digitize audio from Line In and microphone.

Midi sound does't stop

I don't have any of that gear, but check that an option like "note on/off" is turned on in the MIDI setup menu on the Juno-D. Also check in Logic that it's midi is setup right. Logic could also be receiving sustain pedal MIDI info from the Juno. Anyway, that's all I got.

Roland f-50 First 7 right hand whites keys appear to have lost volume and sound off / flat.

One of the lines in the keyboard scanner has opened up. I have an idea what it might be and it is a nasty problem involving circuit traces that are silver conductive paint on a plastic insulating base that separate from a jumper at each end of the strip that the key contacts are made by conductive rubber pills pressed down by the keys. The contact of the flexible circuit under the keys to the jumper cable can be broken by vibration. I have an EPS7 with the problem and other than replacing the whole contact strip under the keys it really has no easy solution.You should probably have a Roland shop look at this problem. If your unit has this same arrangement it is repairable only by replacing the whole key contact strip.

Roland Piano 600 HP 600, out of 76 keys, Keys# 4, 9, 10,11,12,13,14,15, 23, 38, 74 will not play( no sound). Any ideas? Everything else works. Have taken no actions to fix yet.

There is a rubber "bubble contact" strip under the keys, and pressing on a key pushes the bubble down, which makes contact with the circuit board underneath. Any foreign matter that gets in the way of this contact will render that note unplayable, and that is likely what has happened. You can remove the keybed, remove these strips, and clean the board with rubbing alcohol. Don't use alcohol on the bubble strips, as it is not good for the rubber.

Sometimes, you can simply tape a small piece of cardboard, like from a cereal box, onto the bottom of the key where it pushed on the bubble, and this can fix the problem.

The bottom line is that you will have to remove the keybed, and that may be a daunting procedure unless you're used to that kind of work. So you may want to just take it to a service center. You can get parts at www.syntaur.com. Good luck!

The "G" note below Middle

The key contact has gotten contaminated. They are a black conductive rubber pill pressed against circuit traces on a board bellow the keys. Remove that key and maybe others to get at the contacts in silicone strips. Clean ONLY with 99% isoprophyl alcohol and Q tips. Clean both the pills (two per note) and the circuit traces they touch. You have to release the spring at the back of each key to remove the key.

It's a Roland HP-7e digital piano about three years old.

You may need to clean the contacts which are usually conductive rubber. I explained stuff for another Roland problem with two keys that were intermittent. I have an EP-7 that I had to do the cleaning of the key contacts. Use 91 or 99 % Isoprophyl alcohol to clean BOTH the conductive "pill" (Black under silicone rubber domes) AND the traces on the board where they press. Clean gently as the traces have a hard black coating.

I have a Technics digital piano with 1 dead key. The piano is about 10 years old and in great shape. The key stopped working after my toddler started banging on the keyboard. Is this fixable?

If your piano is the same as mine, there is a rubber membrane with contacts imbedded in it that sits on top of a circuit board. The key pushes the contact in the membrane onto the contact causing a note on. What happens is the cylindrical part of the membrane that holds the contact can get torn and the contact will no longer travel in a straight line to trigger the note. The entire membrane strip has to be replaced. The strip on my piano was discontinued and I had to manufacture one from an extra Roland membrane that had some bad contacts in it. You will have to contact Technicsat www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/PNAEndecaSearchCmd for support. If you don't feel comfortable tackling the repair yourself consult a good piano tuner/repair place in your area for advice.
