Subject: Re: [AN1x] key stopped working

If you have a Screwdriver and a camera you should be able to fix it yourself. Remember to dump your sysex info prior to doing anything.

Remove all the screws from the bottom and then take pictures of the inside of the board. You'll have to remove a few things to get access to the keybed. Just be careful not to pole the circutry with your screwdriver or pull any wires and you should be fine.

There is a long circuit board screwed to the keybed that has sensors and a rubber strip that hits it when the keys are pressed. Most likely the rubber is dusty or the sensors are dirty. They just need to be cleaned with a damp lint-free cloth.

I got my AN1x real cheap because I bought it this way.

I have one note that doesn't sound. How hard is this to fix--I have no technical savvy, but I know people who do.

Thanks
