key contact issue??

2008-03-02 by dsx707

Hello, 

I been an owner of the Andromeda for six years and as of a week ago
noticed that the middle C key plays louder when played at lower
velocities. This would suggest to me that dirt or something is in
between the key contacts, which mean that a simple cleaning would fix
the problem. That said I could all ways take it to the local music
instrument repair shop however I don't think spending the $80.00 per
hour rate, would be worth it for this job. 

I have seen the posts on how to take apart the synth which looks
pretty easy as I have done similar work on keyboards in the past, ex.
my old D-50. 

The question is how easy would this be to clean the contacts and what
steps would one take?
