mpcstuff.com

highly recommended.

"individual pads" - You do know it'll be a matter of time before they die again.
Anyway, if you're in the UK try:
http://www.cimplespares.com/section.php/25/0

oh yeah i forgot about cimple. they took 9 weeks to replace a pad bank button.... lookin fwd to using them again hahah! (crazy hair pulling voice! : )

are any UK retailers selling the MPC1000 with the pad fix already installed? DV247/SoundControl?...might go to my local sound control and ask a few questions....

Cheers

vstservice.com

yo, thanks, i got 4 spares from cimple, coming.......ordered online...
not cheap tho' £6+vat ea.

i guess its been 3years before any major probs.....i can still clean them up and get the dodgy ones to work almost as good as new, ive done it 4 times now, but it doesnt last,

anyways just wanted to say cheers for the link.

Can you buy new pads (pad upgrade kit) from Europe.
I'm not too excited in paying 180$ for pads, plus shipping, plus import costs.

dunno about an upgrade kit as such, i just ordered individual pads there.

anyone else know?

just recieved this..

Dirk-Jan,



We just got the pad sensors in and I can ship yours out as soon as we receive payment. Regarding extra taxes etc, we ship through USPS and we can claim it as a gift to avoid high customs fees, but once it leaves our shop we can’t control what extra charges are applied. Please send your credit card info (including exp date, cvv code, and billing address) to pay the total of $209, or you can pay a total of $215.27 to [email protected] through Paypal.

Thanks,

Best Regards

Nicholas Lejeune
