Roland D-5 Issues

2013-06-13 by phammer123

Hi,

I recently bought a Roland D-5 for $80. It has issues. I have to hold down the patch buttons, for a few seconds, for the patch to kick in. Also one button just caved in on me. I have a brother in law who is an electronics tech. Can we open this thing up and replace the patch buttons? Can we rig them?

Pham.
