Hey, yeah I lifted them off and had loads of separation. Moved the wires off the boards...moved the midi wires from any where near the analog board or wires...checked the ground as much a I could and can't see anything un usual. Its all still exactly the same. The ground hum comes an goes with the key bed being lied in and out but even when its a bit quieter there is still the crazy circus frequencies whistling away as you play...only when filter is rolled off so you can hear them. Wide open its so fuzzy and loud that it drowns them out.

You’re still talking about unsoldering at least 32 wires and resoldering the black and white ones back to their correct location, then trying to explain to someone else exactly how to reconnect 32 wires on their keyboard. Sounds like it would need careful documentation if you want to try a different midi kit and sell that one to someone else. How about getting those two circuit boards and associated wiring lifted up away from the KLM boards? Any progress there?

Hey, don't knock it... that interface is still useful and you can bet others would be willing to go for it on Ebay, as long as you document (photograph) it's installation and carefully remove, put in an antistatic bag (chuck that foam!) - it's a very simple device really that most anybody can figure out... just state it's an older/working interface that you don't need anymore. ; )
