Re: [xl7] Re: data wheel malfunction

Yeah, vaguely remember it, but I wouldn't recommend it though.  Probably 
will help things for a bit, but I can't imagine grease is going to help in 
the long run, might make things worse.  The only other option I can 
suggest, is contact Emu tech suport and see how much it would cost to get 
a new encoder installed.

Search thru the archive......like many moons ago someone said they
used heavy bicycle-grade grease loaded down into encoder mechanism -
they swore that it "fixed" the problem

remember - I am not saying to do this - I am saying that I think I 
remmber someone saying that...

rEalm? Any memories of this?
