How to Initialize (reset), and preload on the Korg X2/X3/X3R
Initialization: Hold Page Down and 0 while turning it on
Preload: Disk Load (XSD00P)
ROM Check: Hold Enter and 7 while turning it on.
If banks names are lost, you need to replace the little round coin-pill from inside, which memorize settings while the instrument is off and disconnected from the power.

    Ok that pill, is that the backup battery? It doesnt store anything - just electric power. Its a side effect that power maintains flash memory. It requires pulse of power to refresh every so often. With no battery it gets lost.

It could be that you have a keyboard 'split' turned on but haven't allocated a voice / sound to one half of the keyboard.
See chapter 1 page 11 and chapter 3 page 27 of the manual available at the link below for a more detailed explanation

I have a korg n1 and when I turn it on the display screen comes on but no words show up on it I was wondering how to fix it

It sounds like your ROM battery, which the ROM contains and stores the patches for the keyboard, has gone completely dead and your keyboard is dead in the water. However, if you can get a MIDI to USB converter and get the battery changed, then you can reload the patches back onto the keyboard.

I have worked on a Korg M1 Workstation and have had to replace the battery(CR2032) and then had to run a program called "MIDI-OX" which also gave me access to the patches needed in order to restore the keyboard to factory patch settings.

http://www.midiox.com/

Take a look at this AFTER you have gotten the battery replaced. I will tell you that replacing most batteries is a very intricate job as, the bottom of the keyboard has to be removed, as well as a lot of the internal boards. I had to draw a diagram and mark certain pieces so I would know where they went and in what order they have to be re-attached. My advice is take it to someone who works on electronics unless you want to DIY (not recommended) to get the battery replaced.

Hope this helps.

Why is gm voice not playing?

Hello, You may want to reset your machine, all data and pre loaded programs, for this you must turn on your M50 press the global mode button, click on the top arrow next to (basic) select option 2, load pre-preloaded demo data, you then choose all (PCG and demo songs). press OK. Your Korg will re install all factory samples, data and settings. Once completed It will then instruct you to turn off your machine. give it a minute or so to self upgrade before turning it back on, once you turn it back on you should see updating panel notifications right and left, you should be able to use all of the sounds and combi's available for M50. that's a factory reset. I hope this helps, Have a great day.

Korg M50 keeps freezing up how to fix took it to repair and it still does it

Well looks like you have a capacitors problem. I had this problem too and a friend soldered two new capacitors in place. You can find information on the korg forum but most important is to know where the capacitors are located
