Think my Buttons are Dying

Whats up everyone, I've been noticing lately while I'm making beats that when I press on the A , B , C , or D bank buttons that I'll have to sometimes like actually press and hold the button down for it to light up. The same thing is happening with my "Mode" button and my "DOWN ARROW" button as well. Just an example, Usually you just press the "MODE" Button and it begins blinking but what I have to do sometimes is I have to press it and hold it then it begins to blink. I'm wondering if this is a sign that my buttons are going to die soon, has anyone else had this problem? Thanks for the help.

It happens. You can buy the buttons and switches from MPCstuff.

first try contact spray but not the corrosive one, often thatwas enought for contacts to work again .

Yeah, unfortunately it seems to happen to all electronic instruments. I've had several of mine replaced. Down arrow was one for me too. It's really not that difficult to do, from waht I'm told, as long as you are comfortable with a soldering iron. If not, I know a place that will replace whatever buttons you want pretty cheaply. The only problem is you'll have to pay for shipping. I had to have a few buttons done on my Fantom too. Just PM me if I can help...

Dude, MPCStuff will keep your MPC running to the end of time ... it is worth it to just buy the piece you need rather then get creative solutions that are just going to hold you off temperately
