Hello folks,

I'm trying to salvage a used virus ti keyboard. inside the TI, on the keys circuit board, there are 3 10 pin connectors, and there are 3 ribbons (1 from dsp board, 1 from I/O board, and 1 from Pitch/mod wheels) going into these 3 connectors. However I do not know which ribbon goes into which port. So if anyone have any idea where to fit these cables please let me know thanks...

the connectors don't use 10-pin ribbons, they use usb on the ti. :)

did someone not post pictures of one a while back, check the search, it was something to do with broken keys? I'll also see if I can find them, but I'm crap at searching

I remember that post, but it must be at least a year old, maybe the pictures are still there?
Also, I'm pretty sure it was an Indigo. Could be wrong. They are probably the same though.

thank you so much Guzzy! and yes i did dig up that old post Guzzy posted, but i was not able to tell the ribbon assignment from his old pics.

if any1 is interested i can post inside pics of the TI keyboard. (which is pretty much identical to Guzzy's TI Polar)
