PROVEN WAY TO FIX MPC1000 Pads FREEE

This reminds me of similar wisdom imparted on me years ago, by a seemingly deranged professor of graduate-level anatomy classes...

It was a short bit of time before a couple of us students got a few cases of beers, and rounded up as many (CRUSTY, STAINED, DISGUSTING, & WORSE) computer keyboards as we could procure. After a few initial cocktails (and actual fun[!]), we put all the keyboards in the dishwasher racks, threw a jet-dry tab in there for good measure, and just forgot about it. Stranglely enough, a couple of days later someone remembered the ****' retarded experiment... Believe it or not, the majority of those (previously horrific) keyboards came out clean, and working near-as, if not as good-as, new.

Go figure.


AS FOR DEEP-CLEANING YOUR MPC-

Let me know how it turns out Champ!!!(?)

actually, keyboards are not damaged by water, unless they are on top of computers (i.e. laptop)

Dammit! I don't have a bath tub, what should i do? I have JJ OS 3.08 btw Cheers!

i would advise to use a sink but if you live in the woods and do not have running water..... a stream would do just fine aswell

I am currently in my 4th year studying electronic engineering (HND) and i would seriously advise that nobody use this method for fixing your mpc pads, yes the post earlier in the forum stating that NASA have been using 'flash freeze' methods for years is true to certain extent, but they used nitrogen gas, i can assure you they never went dipping components in bathtubs, even the nitrogen gas method is outdated.

Its not so much the frozen water will damage your mpc, but the thawing out method, some materials within the mpc like the electrical ribbons and celluloid plastics can be irreparably damaged if subjected to dramatic changes in temperature in short periods of time.

WE MUST BITE THE BULLET, AKAI HAVE LUMPED US ALL WITH THE BAD PADS, I SUJJEST THAT U BUY NEW PADS AND REPLACE THEM THE CORRECT WAY,

too bad bout the price though, i hate having my bal*s bust too.

This topic was meant to be a joke. It doesn't take a rocket scientist or even an electrical engineer to figure that out.

well... i'm just looking out for the people who aren't rocket scientists or electrical engineers.

amen. i feel bad for the kid who wrecked his mpc!!
kylefort32 should be banned, and this thread deleted
what a **** joke

you said it bro, i know the topic was meant as a joke but new people who join the forum may see it and not know whats happening, your rite he should be banned, hopefully these posts will keep us newbies from wrecking our precious mpcs!

r.i.p. and respect to tha D-I-L-L-A

^^^ you guys are a little new to be recommending who should get banned... maybe you should get banned for bitchin while being in the 30 post trial period Seriously tho, joke or not if you submerge any of your audio equipment in water don’t blame the person who told you to do it. Blame yourself for being a jackass and following everything they read on the internet.

Oh and I found out that antifreeze works dope on computers. If it keeps freezing up on you just get 5 gallons of antifreeze and leave the tower submerged over night. I guarantee your comp will never freeze again...

who's bitchin? as hard as it may be to believe for you, not all of us graduated at the top of our class pounda..god damn..maybe you should be banned for being such a smug ****..it was a wreckless and needless joke..i don't need any exp with an mpc much less an online forum to recognize stupidity..........nuff said dun

for the record, as someone who lived through the desperation of busted pads, i thought it was funny.

that doesn't mean it wasn't in poor taste, but it just goes to show that poor taste can be good...

hah. don't ya know it

why you takin this thing so serious ha ha. You aint dip ya MP in water too did you?

Either way..... that ish was dumb funny. At one point i wondered if the original post real. But i figured no one could be that dumb....guess you got dee dee dee's everywhere....and for the record amateur the whole bitchin thing was a joke read it again....

haha, nah. i don't even own one yet. but see, even you second guessed the legitimacy of the original post..which is exactly the point i was making..just seems like a dick move on "kylefort32's" part..ya feel me? why even post this shit.
