Hi All

I was looking to replace my browse jog wheel. Do I just need to remove the front panel to access? Anyone know if there are any pics of MPC X disassembly? Cheers

Nahh you gotta take the X Fully apart from the Bottom to get that Jog Wheel off. I did it a couple of times. Lot of Ribbon cables on the Bottom/Back Panel...so take ya time and be gentle

If you've done it, would you mind sharing the replacement part (type and numbers) which you have used for replacement? I find it awfully hard to source the correct replacement parts her in Germany and it took me hours to even find a suitable XLR combo jack replacement a while ago by comparing PCB charts :Sigh:

Doesn't the plastic jog wheel just pull off, like on all the other MPC's and Force??? :hmmm: Or are you guys talking about the actual potentiometer?

Nope I believe there's a Bracket holding it in

Just bought a replacement pot and dial from mpcstuff. Waiting for it to arrive.
