[sdiy] Roland keyboard problem - one note keeps playing at full volume..

[Chris Manders]

I had a similar problem once with a Roland Alpha Juno
2 (I own two of these beasts). They have velocity
sensitive keyboards (and possibly aftertouch too).

The key that was problematic was middle C; It had had
the most use I guess. Strangely, fluffing up the
spongey/fluffy material under the offending key seemed
to fix the problem (this material was pressed pretty
flat through use). Taking the keyboard off and
stripping it apart was easy, although time consuming -
Each key had to be fed out, and then fed back from one
end.

Anyone else fixed, or had issues with Roland Alpha
Juno keyboards?
