Hey everyone, i'm still relatively new to the mpc 1000 and after using a purchased used one, my jog wheel has gone wonkey.
It wobbles when I turn and skips digits. Also, if I leave it alone on a digit sometimes it will switch on its own because it's so sensitive. Because of this, it obviously needs to be replaced. What part do I get to replace it?

would it be this?

Seems pretty cheap in price to fix such a huge problem.


Thanks for your help

"This is the jog wheel post encoder for the Akai MPC 1000 If you are having problems with your jog wheel this is a very likely cause.

This part is for the Akai MPC 1000"

Just wantd to be 100% sure


thanks

^^ Try akai directly if the part is on back order. You could also order the entire pcb board seeing as how it isnt much more than the encoder. plus you would have extra buttons etc. for spare parts from your old pcb board.
