Jidis Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Alright I think I've seen it all now. :-[Just grabbed a service PDF for a Technics keyboard from here:http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/16615/Technics_SX-P50.htmlto find pictures of a naked lady behind all the diagrams and text. Not a complaint so to speak, but jeez man, who would've seen that crap coming?Attention! This manual is multipart.err... anything else you'd like to tell us about it?? Edit: Put NSFW in the topic just in case. Sorry for intruding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goblinz Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Ahh dammit i can't get the pdf to extract :( ;DLooks like it's a spanned archive, if you want to see the manual porn you'll have to download all parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Yes I know... I even tried to find the other parts, but after two searches I decided that I Couldn't be bothered ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goblinz Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Yes I know... I even tried to find the other parts, but after two searches I decided that I Couldn't be bothered ;D You got as far as that? Oh dear. Couldn't you just photoshop some naked ladies onto a printed version of the MB-SID V2 manual... might stop so many questions being asked that already covered in the documentation :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Well it was done out of curiousity about the manual, not the naked ladies in it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stryd_one Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Seriously, was I the only one who wondered what the context of the naked ladies was? Just the concept of it cracks me up! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therezin Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Seriously, was I the only one who wondered what the context of the naked ladies was? Just the concept of it cracks me up! :DMe too, like are we talking full on x-rated watermark images here :o :o or just line-drawings ?I actually downloaded this purely to see what the context was I hasten to add, and... there is no context to it whatsoever. The background on each page has been replaced with a rather attractive brunette who leaves nothing to the imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goblinz Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Umnnn... that's shocking. i thought the odd funny line-drawn cartoon or something.. Not full on porn! Maybe an idea to mark it as not safe for work. The Image has obviously been added by the uploader though, no way that the manuafacturer could get away with that.

Jidis Posted April 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 let me know if that bothers you and we'll talk about changing it back :)Not in the slightest. I probably wouldn't have cared if it even stayed on here, I just thought the concept was pretty f*'n weird and had to share it with others who might be equally confused by it. ;D I mean, if a young hacker type wanted to "surprise" or shock people with porn in an inappropriate place, why a service manual? Doesn't seem most techs are going to give two turds about some nasty pictures. For those who couldn't download it, it's about like Therezin pointed out, and pretty much standard "gas station calendar" porn. I thought it was more than one picture, but it looks like the same one on each page. The line drawings thing would have been good. Maybe there's a comment/suggestions link on the site. FWIW, it looks like the real service manual (68 pages). I've found that site a few times before for PDFs. I'm wondering now if there's a bunch like that. Getting the rars off there was sort of weird, but I've dealt with worse. Some of them gave me a download dialog when I clicked them in Opera, but some didn't. In that case, you'll see some small text for "click to download" or something below the archive list that you can use. Of course you'll also need an up to date version of WinRAR or something that handles multi-part RARs.Take Care,George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jidis Posted April 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 BTW, I went ahead and grabbed that keyboard. The thing is beautiful. Way nicer than anything a drummer should own. ;DI gave the guy a little more than he was asking, as I really don't think it has anything "wrong" with it, at least not what he thought. He said it wasn't producing sound when played, but the demos play OK and I took a MIDIBox (MIDIMon) with me to check the MIDI output, which is fine. I have a feeling he may have switched off local mode or something.Enough rambling. 8)I heard it play via headphones and it seems fine, however, there are three keys (non-consecutive) which produce no sound. I didn't check whether they were outputting MIDI, but have a feeling it's a common contact issue. Different velocities make no difference.I'm going to check out the service/porno manual tonight to see how difficult it is to dissect, but if anyone's got any tips, warnings, or things to check, I'd appreciate it. It's a Technics SX-P50 (88-weighted keys).Thanks!George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jidis Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Damn thing came back at the end of the night tonight. >:(When I hauled the keyboard out there, one of the three dead keys had mysteriously "fixed" itself, then the other two showed up when I powered it up a few hours later. Don't you hate those type of failures??George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I love it when they fix themselves, makes my life much easier ;)Seriously though I hate that... Always leaves me asking "what happened?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you hate those type of failures??GeorgeDamn, that's even worse than having to fix it yourself - there's absolutely nothing to say that the problem won't come back, typically at the worst possible moment.

Jidis Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 You guys think it seems "digital" (having fixed itself 100%) rather than contacts or something? (not looking forward to either one)It was the same keys giving trouble though. George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jidis Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Well, still going strong on night two with all keys active. :( :( :(Maybe some dust or something was lodged under them, which broke free during the ride in the car. (...assuming there's something in there for dust to get lodged under ;D).Maybe tomorrow I'll swing it around the room like the Who and see if I can shake them back into the "dead" state so I can fix it properly.there's absolutely nothing to say that the problem won't come back, typically at the worst possible moment.That's one thing I have going in my favor. It shouldn't matter any time soon for me, though it could be a PITA inconvenience if I don't keep a regular keyboard nearby. The guy I got it from on the other hand, played at ritzy formal events and clubs, where he'd probably be up the creek if it went out.Take Care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
