"MAIN"-Button stuck. How to Open the Case?

Hi peeps. Today my long-awaited MPC 1000, which i got from ebizzle for about 600 Euros arrived. Anything's cool with it so far. It's in good shape and there's even some month warranty on it.
But: the essential "MAIN" Button is somehow stuck on the left side of the case or whatever. Anyway, it has got this lil angle now, hanging down on the left and this does not feel well, nahmean?!
So is there anybody out there who can give me a quick guide which screws to loosen, so i can lift the top panel of the mpc, to check out whats goin on there? I'm technically handsome, so don't worry bout it

Thank you & peace,

Stan.

PS: And oh yeah... i had a lil beat done in about an hour. really intuitive design... sounds good as well. I'll hit u with with some if I'm fully into it.

Oh I'm sorry, I just found the tutorial how to open it on the site... SOOOORRRY again... peace

Okay, got it opend, and then i found out that the plastic button was broken at the left ankel.. damn.. its easy to get teh button out of its out of there, but does anybody know where to get repalcement parts??

Thanks, stan

Try VST.... they have advertisements on this site. Oh wait a minute... I see you are in Germany... not sure if VST is the best bet for you.... the international shipping might make that 1 expensive button!

good luck

you could do a temporary replacement till you can buy that button. Use the "numeric" button till you get that new button. The "main" button is one of the most used buttons and the "numeric" button you can do without, until you get it replaced

whoa, good idea. i never use the numeric button, so i'll remember that if i ever have a button break on me.
