So far so good. I've given Roland the official 'good to go' notice and Boomer said he's start referring people. Korg doesn't really support older instruments much so I'll let everyone know here that any problem with a membrane contact like ps6 and other panasonic built keyboards use..and many fatars, rolands etc. OR any button problem where it's a silicon/carbon type contact is now easily resolved. Check out the new vid I put on youtube at

It gives some good instructions on how to do them. It takes an hour or two depending how good you are maybe but once it's done there is rarely a problem and if there is it can be that the keyboard just has tolerence variations like the poly61 I did there. ALl other ones I've done have just worked save a couple contacts that got bent or something and I just stuck a new one on after peeling the bad one off and it works perfect every time. Also my siel DK80 now has awesome button response again! -Bob
