| I dont' mean to hijack this thread, but... I have a question for Jim.
A few modules in my console (Alps 728M/743M types) have "scratchy" faders. That is the actual travel of the fader feels scratchy, but they don't sound scratchy. I am thinking of dissasembling one, but it seems that they might not assemble back after the procedure. Is this possible to do? It looks like the whole thing is pressed together. Also, is it ok to use regular contact cleaner on the resistive surface? Does it need to be lubricated afterwards (lithium grease or something)? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated. |
