Korg Trident filter adjustment part 1

YouTube via MusicMiK
"Today, i'm calibrating the filters of a Korg Trident Mk1. It was a bit difficult to find out what the pots are for and to thing about a useful procedure of the calibration, but finally, the unit is well-tuned again.

All this took about 3 hours for the calibration and 1 hour to find out the purpose of the pots by measurements and trial-and-error.

I hope you can use it as some orientation if you want to do this joy also.

This is a 2-part video, make sure you see both parts."
