Whenever I turn the knob on the MPC3000, it skips numbers and sometimes goes in reverse. I need help replacing the knob and rotary board on my MPC3000. Anyone here familiar with this. I don't want to mess it up. Thanks

Do a search through the yahoogroups MPC3000 forum where you're a member.

There you will find the part number.

As an example:

Although an old post the info present should at least help you when dealing with VST/AKAI/FORAT to obtain the replacment part.

The actual process of replacing an MPC3000 data encoder is not too difficult.

Change over can be performed easily.

Thanks Rohan. I ordered the parts from VST yesterday. The tech said it was pretty easy to do. Just wanted alittle reassurance on how to go about doing it. Thanks again.
