[KL] Midiboard faders replacement - parts?

[[e-mail] [KurzList]]

Hi all,


I want to replace the faders of my Midiboard because the metal sticks connected to the sliders are getting loose. I also miss two of its caps. Hard to find the exact partnumber in the schematics and also on the pcb. I found this https://www.instrumentalparts.com/d51002001.html#tab-4 site but maybe someone has another tip to buy some new old stock?


Thanks in advance!


Regards,

JP

Hi,
i have sadly no MidiBoard but the Slider of my Prophet VS has a Slider button that looks
similar. Maybe have a look for those on Ebay there are often some available.

I was once told the site Mouser (electronic parts) may have some that could be used as replacements when the original sliders are past saving. I made a mental note of it since my Midiboard is missing 2 sliders, but I haven't gotten around to identifying which part could actually work yet (I want to see if I can successfully deal with some problem areas of rust on the internal metal framework of my Midiboard first- seems a previous owner may have spilled a cup of water on it some time ago. When I have dealt with that I can refocus on sliders so am curious what all comes up in this discussion). Also I think there was one person who once managed to replace Midiboard sliders with new LED sliders, though the only documentation I can find at the moment regarding that particular quest is a forum page that seems to be discussing the potential of such: http://www.electro-music.com/forum/post-289623.html http://www.electro-music.com/forum/post-289623.html

Thanks for the info soir_noirneko. I prefer the original look but nice idea to use led-faders.

I may have found replacement faders at Alibaba https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/60mm-travel-length-with-shaft-L15C_60241555968.html?spm=a2700.8443308.0.0.426c2364d50lGM. Not sure yet if they will fit exactly but it looks very close.


But still prefer some new old stock and hope to find them here at this forum ;-)
