This may be a terrible bodge, but I've found that drawing on them with a soft pencil seems to do the trick in my Nord Lead 2. It's worth a go. Still seems fine 12 months later.

Best Whooshes,

Hi everybody,

I know this is not about a vintage synth but it could be useful.

I'm trying to fix a old Roland HP-5000SL digital piano that a velocity problem on one note even after the rubber key contacts have been replaced and the contact strips have been cleaned.
I think the contact strip (board) is worn.
Those boards aren't available from Roland anymore.

Is there any way to refurbish the carbon contacts on those boards?

Thank you!

Nicolas
