Korg is completely embracing randomization as a creative tool too. Not only that, but many of those parameters can be randomized to create pads that evolve organically without any immediately obvious pattern. The Wavestate picks up the same capability, including the ability to blend between four different complex wave sequences, and give each one unique characteristics and lengths. That allowed it to produce rich cinematic sounds (though with a distinct '90s vibe) with just a single key press. Part of what made the Wavestation so unique was its wave sequencing, in which several samples could be crossfaded together to create evolving timbres.

(btw, whilst you have it open, if you want to take a quick snap of the battery location, it would be very useful to the thread.This content is not available due to your privacy preferences. Other than that, It would need to be looked at by a qualified tech. HOLD KEYPADS ‘0′ AND ‘3′ WHILE TURNING ON POWER If you don't mind loosing your sounds (if they havent gone already), you could try a factory reset: It can be different on various boards, (quite often a warning notice is shown on the lcd itself) Dud battery symtoms are normaly all presets gone and sometimes a droning sound. Theres no harm trying a new battery but I think in this case it is something else. Best option is to let it thoroughly dry out. From what you say, it sounds more likely to have caused a short somewhere. The QS6 isn't 'that' old so I would be surprised if the battery needed changing now. Anyway, thanks in advance for any help you can provide.Sorry to hear about your accident.

I suspect I've damaged some of the chips and that a new battery won't improve the situation.

Is there any point replacing the battery? It shows the same when the power cable is plugged in. When I opened it up the wine had got onto the circuit board including around the battery. However, the main reason I'm posting is - what are the symptoms that a battery needs replacing? I spilt a glass of wine in my keyboard and the led display started showing nonsense characters. It has legs that require soldering to the board (I have read this is so heat from soldering does not damage the battery).

For the purposes of fitting into this thread, I have an Alesis QS6 and it requires a BR2325 battery.
