Kawai SX-210 Tape or recording of tape
Hey everybody, attempting to restore a Kawai SX-210 and so am in need of the original factory preset dump. Curious if anyone has the original tape or recording of that tape. Thanks!
Re: Kawai SX-210 Tape or recording of tape
Kawai/Teisco SX210 Owners/User Manual: https://mega.nz/#!SZcFFKSb!O3bYF5Z9I86t ... DNtBYTBQaQ
Check out page 45 in the instruction manual (first link). It has all the factory preset patch data, although it has to be keyed in by hand. Plus, it's good for verifying that the factory tape dump is intact.
The SX-240 cassette is out there (https://mega.nz/#!PINBASJR!cSuo7QmDYDh1 ... YiSr5Fl6kE) incidentally, but it won't work with the SX-210.
But here's the treasure you're looking for... Kawai SX-210 factory preset cassette tape in WAV format. This is the only place it can be found on the open Internet.
Version 1:
https://mega.nz/#!LNFXVAqI!F3ES49rGiwa7 ... 5VfGmGOHI8
Version 2:
https://mega.nz/#!TAURzCBZ!Q9BqsP1Ecd2X ... pzYK956xX8
And for good measure, here's the Kawai/Teisco SX210 Service Manual:
https://mega.nz/#!6QMXTYaK!X1LtsdH-BvGz ... 96IpVSrxio
This isn't the watermarked version that's usually floating around. It's nice quality with readable schematics included.
Oh, and two versions of the SX-210 OS firmware ROMs should be here in this wonderful synth EPROM archive:

Re: Kawai SX-210 Tape or recording of tape
Hi, how are you?
Could you solve the problem? I have a kawai sx 210 too, to which a button change was made and now does not respond well, would it be enough to record the eeprom again? Do you know something about it? in the post above Rasputin, leave the files, would be enough to load some?
I will record a video demonstrating the problem. Greetings, thank you!
