GAD DAMNIT

Have any of you guy try cleaning you switch. I have used Deoxit on other product with your simulkar complaint. I replaced my pad myself but for regular swithes this stuff is great. You would be surpise the amout of dirt you can collect under a tact switch.

oh man when I took mine apart to paint it - the down button stopped working

I felt like punching my self in the face - but I didnt

I took it apart

said a prayer

played with the button and it started working again

I put it back together

presto

but my #3 pad is losing responsiveness

wtf is with that shit

my #2 and #6 pads lost their sensitivity a long time ago. $16 per pad isn't that bad of a price. if any of the people who have done a pad replacement themselves could post up some info or tips it would be greatly appreciated.

i don't trust myself too much when i'm poking around blindy inside equipment.
especially equipment i can't afford to replace.

PAD 1 - Very weak.

PAD 2 - Weak.

PAD 3 - Starting to become weak.

DATA WHEEL - Simply f'd up! (Values in highlighted fields change on their own. Also, If I turn the wheel clockwise, sometimes, the values in the highlighted field change as if I were turning the wheel counter-clockwise).

I agree...this shit cost so much but they are poorly made. The velocitys on pad 1 is gone, everytime i use pad 1 i need to use FULL LEVEL on it. haha. And my jog wheel gets stuck or sometimes it's just too loose and it just spins without making any changes.
