Re: SP-505 unresponsive pads

hi, after hours of research i tried a technique for cleaning old synth keyboard contacts, I rubbed Acetone on the black bit under the pads and on the main PCB, its a little better, ill give it another clean tomorrow, and let everyone know.

it seems its a bad contact between the pads and main board ...

SP-505 unresponsive pads

hi i am so glad this place exists, just got a 505, and it works ok, its just the pads. You rely have to pushhh to get them to trigger, i tried cleaning them, it made it a little better, but i mean trying to record drums is impossible, you never know when the sound will trigger or not.

any help ...
