Done as part of the 'Weird Covers' group as a challenge in memory of Yopparai Kyabetsu who sadly passed last week. He was a founder member of the weird covers group that inspired so much fun and weirdness. This is for you, Yopp.

Fitting a power LED to the Yamaha PSS-140

The Yamaha PSS-140 has no indication to tell the user that the unit is on. If you are running on batteries, this can end in disappointment the next time you use it. So here I show you how to fit a power LED to the unit. Original article at coolcatukes.com/a_230212_yamahaPSS140.shtml

If you wanted to know what is the king of biscuits, then this video will tell you. 30 brave contributors at the Grand Northern Ukulele Festival in 2022 helped us discover the top biscuit.

Missing cover (original by Everything But The Girl)
Here in the US it's called Acousticplus? Is there a new one called Transacoustic or maybe how it's marketed in the UK?
Thanks for the sheet!
One improvement could be suggested (found it in my keyboard on disassembly) - the rubber pad is pressed by a narrow stud of the pedal, so the pressure is applied mainly to the center of the contact pad. A square piece of thin paperboard or plastic (e.g. 0.5-0.8 mm thick) placed between the stud and the rubber pad would destribute pressure of the stud to the whole width of the pad and thus make the contact more reliable.
So what was the cause of the problem? Deteriorated rubber washers (changing geometry of the lever pivot point) or dirt on the circuit board? I disassabmled a similar keaboard (Electone's HS-5) having the same problem with one of the keys and all the contarcts on the circuit board look nicely clean as well as the rubber pads. I am affraid to use any liquids (like IPA) on the contacts - they look like coated with something darker than metal traces on the board. What foam cleaner did you use?
It was the washers that had failed. This is the foam cleaner I use. amzn.to/3XM2pTw
@@phooto Thanks for the link! I changed the washers too and it works fine now. But I used washers from roof screws - had to tear off the rubber part from the metal washer. It fits tighter on the pedal bolt (6 mm inner diameter, 16 mm outer). I used IPA to clean the contacts, but they turned out not dirty at all.

Awesome 😂🤩i will definitely buy it 😃
That IS a cool cat!
Rad!
I have a PSS-A50, JD-Xi, black CT-S1 and an original Go:Keys. I will probably get the new Go:Keys 5, maybe a Casio CT-S500, and later an RD-08 and Yamaha CK61, which is essentially a full size 61 key Reface series keyboard in one and a lot more.
I have a 80's Yamaha organ which is huge fun and now a Roland Fantom-06 as my main studio and stage keyboard.
No suenan los sostenidos de los pedales
Thank you for the review and the cheat sheet!!
Ellie you gorgeous soul - I still revisit this at least once a month. Absolute banger!
Im very curious, How did you get the audio outputs on your Reface to be connected to your Logic inputs 1-2? Did you have to download an external routing program like Patch Bay or something?
An amazing artist
Hello what is that nice red keyboard, if I may know?
Giocatoli inutili
hello in England fun fact we drive on the left side of the road
BEST Demo-Video we have seen Today!!!!!!.......03-07-2024.
Hello, I have one like yours and I don't know how to put it so that it sounds like an organ and I don't understand the rhythms, can you help me?
I used to learn on one of these since i got one as a half-serious birthday present, just to try it out. It doesn't sound very good, of course, but you can actually learn to play on it. I spent half a year learning and bought myself a proper, electroacoustic tenor uke
This dang cool. Now I need an organ.
All you needed to do was flip the Electone on its back and access the pedal washers from there. Much faster.
I recently got one to practice fingering and chords, I'm a complete novice and want to get a full size digi piano, I figured this would be a greay way to test my commitment to learning as well as offer a way to practice on the go as I have to travel regularly and fitting a full size piano isnt exactly easy. Great video and love the cards you printed, something I'd like to say for others who are interested in this, is that you can also tune the keys as well as turn off control output from the keyboard, so if you have this hooked up to a pc as a controller the sound can come through your pc output but not the keyboard speaker using just usb, I use this as a controller for some software so I found this to be useful.
Brilliant!
Oooh that's so cool! I didn't think it played for real😂
It's not a bad tone. :)
Hi Simon, I'm looking for a rotary foot control for ages. Any information how to come by such a genial pedal? Best wishes from Germany
A uke embryo 😄
I have a smaller one now - czcams.com/video/KxXzV0sszhs/video.html ;)
I got one 2 days ago. I'm a beginner, practicing piano on my own ... it took me an hour of fiddling around to be able to make a track with one drum, one guitar and one synth. It's so much fun.
What does it mean the whole pedals not working at all but all keys are perfectly fine
Cool. Thank you for the cheat sheets!
I've just tried to connect another bluetooth speaker (a jbl Tronsmart T6 Plus Upgraded) to a uke. It did connect but the sound was hardly audible, it couldn't amplify the uke. I assume the problem was not with the bluetooth speaker but maybe the electronics of the uke was too basic. What electonics do you need on your uke to be able to amplify it with a jbl go?
What I am trying to Figure out is how to get the YC to effectively interact with the auxiliary input on a Behringer Model D. The thing I'm having a challenge with is the YC MIDI Out appears to have to be plugged directly into the Behringer Model D MIDI In to get the two to function together as far as the triggering is concerned and being able to run the two units plus other sounds on MIDI Channel 1 through a controller keyboard. One thing I'm trying to do is use the Behringer Model D Auxiliary Input to function mainly with the YC Farfisa combo organ sound to add additional filtering and envelope controls.
*HELL YEA, SIMON! SPOOKY COOL!!!!!!! WICKED JAM, BROTHER! YOU NAILED THE CRYPTIC CHORDS LIKE FEW CAN ACCOMPLISH! I LOVE THIS!*
Where to buy the rubber washers?
They are just tap washers from a DIY store.
What a nice video! Thanks so much. Enjoying this keyboard. And your cat is lovely. Thanks. :From Portugal .
Is this real?
Nice ❤
Piano sound not bad?
It's very good, especially for that price.
@@phootoI agree. For the price, very decent. Don't expect top tier quality, but years ago, much more expensive keyboards were the same. So for the price and portability and that you can use this as a controller keyboard for a DAW is awesome, too. You just need a micro USB to whatever USB cable to what is equipped on your other device.
Excellent

Fabulous. Thank you. Pity I can't remove the pedalboard; the screws are too tight. But at least I now know that's what I need to do.
Real
Thanks ❤John 3,16 ❤
Are these still available (2023) I am not finding the website and I need these strap buttons for a Lava uke
They are flight strap buttons, so maybe try Flight ukes?
Can you please show the chords for this in tabs please? For the uku
