hm well i dunno where to get them replaced but if u do tell us =D i live in syd too and im about to buy the mpc this week hopefully

i'm pretty sure the electric factory in melbourne have become the official
(and thus the only) importer for 'genuine akai parts'.

that was what i last heard anyway, about a year ago. i had a little trouble
dealing with em, just cos they are exclusive stockers/repairers for a few
other big brands (and all sub-brands that fall under those umbrellas) which
means that they are TOTALLY inundated with work and take ages to get
their shyt together.

course you could always try...

the custom pads? i'd like to hear some testimonials, f'real.
