thanks
thx

i've had the same problem, maybe we got to do a tutorial for this tip, because i've read other users that broke their buttons trying to clean it up. i've tried to fix the pad but is very difficult you need the new mechanichal part (spring) that was broken. to change the part i've sended my machine to the technical assistance.

buy a new button and take the old one out and replace it.

or take it to a tech with the new button s u just get charged for labor

wow thats a strange mechanism. I never see something like this. Is the long pin a contact AND the spring that hold the button up or are there any other parts?

I might have a few bottoms. How many do you need? All sources for this part are gone.

www.eprelectronics.com used to stock the pads but they aren't in stock.  You can try contacting them straight and asking where they source them.

How much is a pad? You can also buy a Sequential Circuit Tom Drum or Drumtraks, the have the same pads PLUS the small buttons of the SPs:
