<p>This last week, I picked up a 'slightly used' Yamah RM1X. In this case, slightly used seems to have meant drenched in pot smoke and beer while being operated with a hammer instead of fingers. I picked it up very cheaply.</p>
<p>Anyway, I spent part of last night cleaning it up. It is actually in pretty good shape, considering. I was able to get all the residue out and the buttons are now all unstuck, though a little sluggish (I heard this is a common complaint). </p>
<p>Unfortunately, there is one button that doesn't work, and that would be the PLAY button. It works if you really press and hold HARD or if you use a footswitch to activate it. Unfotunately, that doesn't work for step or grid record modes. </p>
<p>I know the yamaha sequencers have some fans on the bar. Does anyone know a resource for parts or a sevice manual? I found some button replacement kits for it on ebay, but I would like to get third party confirmtion that the kit will work before I fork over cash.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
