I cannot let my machinedrum mk1 die

at this point owning a machinedrum for me at least has been like owning and driving a sixites vw beetle - latest issue is a replacment screen gone dark after it bricked itself during reset before which it was fading in and out on the screen - sounded great tho but now dead or stroked out

Open it up and reseat the cables when you’re less medicated. Carefully.

Might not help but worth a try.

tried it and nothing - will take it back to the guy who put the blue screen in and see if he can sort it…

Surely Elektron offers paid repair if it stops working again(?) and you can’t revive it yourself.
