Steps to fix a button.
1.Open the MPC 60 by unscrewing the small screws under the side panels.
2.Unscrew the green computer board thingy thats on the right side of part of the 60 that flips up.
3.Once that is done push the button out from the back using the clips that are holding the brokenbutton into the green computer thingy. The button should come out pretty easy if you gently push the clips upward.
4. Apply crazy glue in between the 2 broken parts of the button. Let it sit for about 30-45 minutes.
5. Next Apply a new coat of crazy glue around the 2 parts so it will seal the two parts together. wait the about 30 minutes then do this step again.
6. Let everything set for at least an hour to make sure it finishes drying.
7. Put the button back into its slot on the board. Gentle force will be need they don't just slide in.
8. Screw the board back onto the mpc and put the screws back that came from under the side panels.

I know you might think the button is on backwards or something but it isn't. It was just printed on wrong. :D

You know it's not printed backward?
Who ever tried to repair it previously used a forward button to replace a backward button, that's why the arrow faces the wrong way.
Previous owner must have been really heavy handed.

Yeah but where did they get a loose forward button? kind of odd huh? since they all come in a strip.

Grimey, maybe ask the previous owner what happened, just out of curiosity, tell him you fiuxed it but you wanted to know the story or whatever, and tell him you love it so he doesn;t think you might be askin for a refund.
