Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

On a totally different piece of music gear (My Yamaha A5000) the rotary encoded
knobs go haywire after a while too.  Oxidation of the component over time.
Either that or your live set involves swinging it about by the data wheel .. ;)

Subject: [xl7] Problem: Weird wheel!


I have problems with the data wheel. I sent back my last XL-7 because
the data wheel was buggy. When I turned it sometimes it did strange
things. When trying to change pattern or anything, it would
suddenly "jump" to a completley different value (And I know I didn't
turn the wheel that fast).

I got a new XL-7 and had no problem with it. The data wheel was
acting nice 'n smooth, no unexpected "jumps". Until now. A while ago
I noticed the data wheel on the new XL-7 started to act a little bit
weird. And now it's quite bad again, like the last XL-7.

Must be quite low quality components or something? This never
happends to my other synthesizers.

I just want to know how the data wheel is for the others of you?
