Hello, I’’m encountering an issue with my Super Gemini. While creating a patch and using the HOLD option, the device suddenly stopped producing sound out of the blue. I’m running the latest firmware. When I press the INITIATE button, I can hear a faint noise in the background, but nothing else happens. Could you please help me troubleshoot this issue? Best regards, Ludovic ---

I experienced a sudden loss of audio on day one night one, turns out I accidentally turned off LOCAL. I’m new, wish I could suggest other options, but I thought I’d share just in case others have the same issue ---

Does the problem persist if you turn the synth off, waiting a few seconds, and turning it on? ---

I’m still a few days in, but I also had another similar experience with very faint sound. I am using a patch bay, some external powered monitors along with another piece of gear going to those monitors via the patch bay. If that other keyboard is turned off, I will get close to no sound even through the headphone jack(that’s a new one for me). Google search suggests it’s maybe an impedance mismatch, which sounded right. All I have to do the fix is keep the other keyboard on, or I could get a mixer. interesting problem. -PS for me at least, this forum can create powerful doubts, I had non responsive upper hold behavior on my sustain pedal FS-6 and thought oh no here we go…turns out it was bad cable. ---

I had to do a hard reset to get it working again. It was a major bug. ---

Just had this start as well. Add it to the laundry list of problems with this synth. I’ve restarted it 3 times in a row and it keeps coming back. One of the times all the buttons started flashing randomly… ---

What I did was resetting my super Gemini but I had to redo all of my patches I’ve created. And didn’t saved him.
