hello
i have a korg x-3 with some buttons that have become inoperative
any suggestions on repairing/replacing them would be appreciated
can I fix them myself or will I have to take it to a korg technician?
I bought his synth new in the middle 90's and just recently over the past yr, some of the buttons stopped working
thanks

It needs new Tact switches. If you can solder it is an easy job but you have to strip the keyboard right down to get to the circuit board

Same story here, so I found an X3R.......... loaded my sounds and used my Triton LE as the controller. Doesn't get much use now that I have my M50.
