Monomachines gets stuck

Hi,

had the problem few months ago. Changed the battery and cleaned contacts and it went a while for a week or so. I had my tech change the battery clean the contacts but the problem persists.
According to test mode everything is ok and and hardware reset didn’t help.
What should I do next?

In what sense gets stuck?

Next step would be to replace the internal PSU if you’re tests are coming out ok

Yes, MnM mki or mkii? mkii did have a more reliable PSU at least.

After hardware reset it gets stuck at the Elekron logo.
How to change the PSU?

Mk2

You can attempt replacing with a PSU-2b.

Not guaranteed to resolve your issue of course, but it’s cheap and not invasive and if you still need to fix the components, you have an extra psu :slight_smile:

Or also if you have an OT or MD mkii, you can borrow one from them.

I would not buy any generic PSU from Amazon or the like, it’s never saving enough money to make it worthwhile.

MONOMACHINE MKII, MACHINEDRUM MKII, OCTATRACK MKI

Current Elektron power supply: PSU-2b. These devices were originally shipped with PSU-2. The PSU-2b power supply handles voltages of 100-240 VAC, 50/60Hz.

The power supply you want to use must meet the following specifications:

Voltage: 6 VDC

Minimum Current Rating: 3 A

Barrel Connector Size: 5.5 mm outer diameter, 2.5 mm inner diameter, 6 mm length

Polarity: Positive center
