[sdiy] rx5 circuit board repair

[gregory zifcak]

hi.
i fell on my rx5 and cracked the circuit board. it still works, except for 
the 0 and 2 buttons. unfortunately, almost all of its menus start with 0, so 
i can't do much. looking at the circuit board, i can see exactly where the 
crack goes across the applicable traces. they are covered with a light 
plastic covering. my question is: how should i go about closing bridging the 
crack? should i just cut the plastic and just try to apply a thin line of 
solder? or is it more complicated than that?

also, i am using this machine to trigger drum modules, so the pad names 
don't apply. i'd like to add labels to the keys that correspond to the 
module voice numbers. does anyone have any ideas for labels that won't leave 
residue?

thanks for any advice,

greg
