Sven Golly Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Hanny, make sure you're selecting a Forum in the list on the left; it sounds as though you're leaving that selection box on the 'Choose a forum...' option, which of course won't find anything.

Calumet Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Apparently nothing has changed here. Can someone give me a tip on how to search for posts about the Korg R3? Quote My band Thousand Houses: www.thousandhouses.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Golly Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Okay, I've officially given up on the search engine on this forum. Here's the Google method: Go to Google.com Enter your search terms, in this case Korg R3. Before you click on 'SEARCH', add the following: site:forums.musicplayer.com So, your search should read: Korg R3 site:forums.musicplayer.com Enjoy.

Tom S. Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Help! For instructions of Roland RD-500/600/700 hammer repair/replacement I was referred to musicplayer.com: "go to musicplayer.com, keyboard forum, do a search on rd700, you might find a very good post with several photos on how-to" But the search function 4-month limit makes this almost impossible. Suggestions for how to find this (apparently excellent) post? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Loving Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have been doing research on pc3, cp300, nord stage ex and nord electro 3 because I am going to spend some money this year on one of those. Alas, the "SEARCH" function does not work for me. How do I find out stuff on this forum? I hate those what kind of gear threads and refuse to start one, but the "SEARCH" does not work at all for me. Please advise. Quote "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yannis D Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hi I've posted this to the regular threads, but i thought somebody might help me out here, so here it is... I'm searching for an older video in KM. All i remember is that there was this young guy, playing in an afro beat band in the USA. He was using Apple Mainstage and two keyboard controllers and he was basically talking about his mainstage/controllers set up on stage and some cool tricks about using this combi. I can't find the video in the Keyboard Magazine "videos" site . Does anybody know how/where to find it? thanx Quote Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBDNoob Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Steve Fortner made an excellent post in the Forum Policies thread about using the search function to help find what you need on this forum...but it's a bit hidden in that thread... Given the amount of new people who come here searching for info and unknowingly ask questions that have been asked and answered many times before, I thought that it'd be a good idea to give this post it's own thread: Originally posted by Steve Fortner: For people who may not be aware of it, I'd like to call attention to the search function built into this bulletin board software. From any screen on the Keyboard Corner, click "search" in the small, horizontal menu that reads "my profile | directory | search | faq | forum home." A page will come up with a number of variables and search fields, which are all pretty self-explanatory. This is an ideal place to begin if you're arriving here with any questions like: dB I am totally baffled by this search function. First, I don't see the menu that you have described, but perhaps the layout has changed since you wrote the post. So I just selected search and punched in what I was searching for, which is info on the Kurzweil PC3 Le7, and I used several different types of search terms, from just entering only the brand name (with no model) and every time, it told me there were no search results; that's strange b/c I've already read threads on that on this forum when I reached them before I signed up to the forum by searching in Google. I'm interested in comparisons between it and other models and other basic info about the programmability, or not, of sounds in it. Any help would be much appreciated.

teddyc1 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 There's a better way to search. Go to google.com Enter this into the search field without quotes: "site: www.whateverwebsite.com x y z" where x y and z are the search terms separated by a space. So if I wanted to search the Keyboard Corner for anything related to the CP4 I would enter this into google: "site: https://forums.musicplayer.com/ubbthreads.php/forums/18 cp4" without the quotes of course. That's an example of a search with only one term. If I wanted to include CP40 then it would return posts which include mentions of both CP4 and CP40, like this: "site: https://forums.musicplayer.com/ubbthreads.php/forums/18 cp4 cp40" Let's say there's a wacky Kawasaki keyboard that's called the CP4000000 and we want to exclude posts which mention that. Those posts would otherwise be included because CP4000000 begins with CP40. Use the minus key "-" before that term, like this: "site: https://forums.musicplayer.com/ubbthreads.php/forums/18 cp4 cp40 -kawasaki" or "site: https://forums.musicplayer.com/ubbthreads.php/forums/18 cp4 cp40 -CP400000" would also work. Remember to leave off the quote marks in all the examples above. Hope this helps somebody. Quote Korg SV-1. I distribute and upgrade 10-string harps.

kelp Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Can search preferences be saved? For instance, I always find myself switching from the default of "1 week, newer" to "1 day, older" to begin looking back in time. Takes eight-ish mouse-clicks / keystrokes to do that.

lawman Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I don't understand the Search function at all. I logged in, clicked on the magnifying glass on the blue bar, entered my search term in the white box, then clicked again on the second magnifying glass, in the search box. I found NO returns that mentioned my search term, but 100 totally unrelated returns. When I changed my search terms, I got the same non-responsive returns. I've also tried entering the search request in the Advanced Search window, with no better results. I thought I'd try it one last time today to see if my luck had changed. It hadn't. FYI, I was looking for posts that dealt with the API 3124MV (a preamp/mixer). First, I searched for API 3124MV. Then I tried various permutations including API 3124, 3124 and API alone. I got no responsive results, and the same unresponsive and frustratingly unrelated returns. What am I doing wrong, and how can I search this Forum meaningfully? You have a boatload of posts, but I cannot for the life of me find what I'm looking for. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
