Re: Pro One Pot Cleaning and Keyboard Scaling

I did the clean and lube when I had the motherboard out for the CPU upgrade. Glad I did it that way as I was able to wipe up any extra cleaner and overspray with paper towels. So yes, all the knobs were off. I used Deoxit Gold on the pots and switches. It's what had on hand. I'll see if I have a man...

Re: Pro One Pot Cleaning and Keyboard Scaling

I installed the MTG Pro One midi kit http://www.musictechnologiesgroup.com/ last fall and I sprayed all the pots and switches with DeOxit and it feels like new.

Re: D550 LCD Nightmare

Get the smallest Vice Grips you can find and try that. Clamp it on the screw head and gently unscrew it. It may take a few tries to get the tension right to get a good grip on the screw head.

If the doesn't do it, try an "Easy Out" type screw extractor.

Re: #Selfie Synth

Im not like most, I was spoiled with the instant gratification gaming of the early 90's. It was not until I was getting to be around 19/20 I got curious about the things I never had access to. Then In a way I learned the stuff in a reverse-engineering sort of way. I love it though. Its gratifying i...
