Hi.

I've broken the button on my "go right" or ">" key...

I tried swapping the grey plastic button with another button, but it still doesn't work, it seems the clicker underneath is broken...

anyone had any experience fixing this or a similar small button? Looked on mpc stuff, they sell the grey buttons, but i can't see the clickers anywhere..

gutted, only had the mpc 2 weeks, was just getting into it, can't do much with a broken ">" button though :( :( :(

please someone help me.

This happened to me with the Shift Button, Didn't work at all.

If you happen to have a Broken Xbox controller laying around. Open it up. the start and select clicker buttons are the same as the mpc small clicker buttons, or tact switches whatever they call them.

You will need a soldering iron and desoldering braid

I swaped the button from the xbox s-controller to the mpc button and it worked great.

Check any broken electronic items you dont care to mess up, somthing might have a clicker switch thats exactly the same or similar as the ones in the mpc.
