Hi!

The data entry knob on my 3000 is starting to act funny..its sort of loose but still works. My guess is that its gonna break any day now. Do i need a new knob or can this be fixed any other way. I live in Sweden and i dont know any place to send it to for repair. Does anybody have experiance with this? Is it hard do replace the knob yourself?

Thanx!

Very easy to do. I found the #'s jumped and skipped when turning the knob. I just ordered a new knob and a new responder(this is the actual piece if you pull the knob off the MPC) from VST Service. I did the soldering myself. Very easy. Works as if it were brand new.

I fixed myself, i pulled out the knob and inside it was loose, i just tighten it up again. Good for me!!
