I've had this same exact problem. For a while I could get it going by
jiggling the part of the mouse that plugs into the sampler, just winding
the end of the cord and pushing it in a circular motion into the socket,
but eventually no go. I had to have it serviced.
Ironically they brought it back and said "it's fixed!" even though it
was in exactly the same condition. I took it back to the same store,
plugged it in and showed the guy they didn't do a thing. They did take
it back and fix it for free. If possible, ALWAYS check out the fix
while you're at the store.
Nice to see some list activity. What are you using your sampler for?

Subject: [sgroup] S770 Mice
I just recently purchased my Roland S770 Sampler and LOVE it. However
I
have been searching for a mouse ever since. I read
that the Roland
S770
uses an MSX compatible mouse. After alot of searching
I found a NEOS
MS-
10
MSX mouse on ebay and purchased it. When I plug it in and activate
the
mouse the cursor just darts to the bottom right and I
can't do
anything
with
the mouse. The right button will scroll through the jump menu though.
I
looked further in the S770 manual and noticed the it
says it is
compatible
with the S550 mice, but nothing else.
Is my problem an incompatible mouse or a BAD mouse port on my sampler?
Thanks
Michael
