I would first try Yamaha as it's entirely likely their service dept.
would offer replacement parts http://www.yamaha.com/synth.htm
My experience with YCA has been positive :-)

And if that doesn't pan out I'd try EPR Electronics out of New York
http://www.eprelectronics.com/ I know of many Ensoniq users
who have been ordering replacement parts (knobs & buttons)
from EPR Electronics. They replied to my inquiries via their
website in about 24 hours.

regards - and Happy New Year.
