backlight i purchased for this project was from
WWW.GLOWSAFE.COM
it fits perfect for the KORG 01 Workstation.
This is a guide for people wishing to increase the backlight strength because the KORG 01 may have dimmed over time.
Tutorial By Gavin McCloy.
Make sure you have A4 sheets of paper to lay screws onto and write or sketch which PCB you took the screws from, this way you will be "organized" (excuse the pun)
okay, well make sure also you have a decent screwgun as there are LOADS of screws, (AND I MEAN LOADS!)
you`ll spend most of your time "unscrewing"
But, i know what you would all rather be doing..... :)
Make sure when you lay your KORG down flat on it`s face you put a SPONGE or something soft and SPONGY/FOAM to be gentle with the Pitchbend or you may damage the joystick on it when you turn the 01/W on its front, either that if you have a keyboard stand use this to position the synth taking care not to jam it onto any keys, again, use a sponge to protect vulnerable areas.
*****WARNING***** UNPLUG YOUR KORG 1ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ZAPPITY ZAP!!!
DO NOT OPEN WHILE YOU HAVE THE POWER PLUGGED IN UNLESS YOU ARE ELECTRICAL SAFETY AWARE AND A QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL ENGINEER/TECHNICIAN.
