Hi there, I'd like to know what u guys use for this aswell. Are you talking about externally or internally.

On all my other synth gear (externally)i use baby wipes they were recommended to me a few years back as they non abrasive cleaners

Use some rubbing alcohol, but make sure you don't touch the painted stuff as it might rub off the text. Alcohol will dissolve most of the crap that your fingers left.

Thats why baby wipes are so good they clean and have no harmful ingredients. Mopped my mpc up last nite for the first time came ot a treat.

Internally get an air can and posibly some contact solution if needed (go easy on it though)

I agree, sometimes if you go too crazy, H2O might build up and you can get ur electronics wet, and that's a plain wrong thing to do :)
