Tried a few searches and couldnt find an exact match for the problem I’m having. I’m not talking about the common problem where some buttons are misaligned and snag/stick on the nearby surfaces, causing the buttons to remain depressed. My problem is that the surface of my digitakt and digitone buttons has accrued a thin film of stickiness. It’s minor, but a little annoying. I’d like to clean them using something like Goo-Gone but am worried I may damage things.
Has anyone encountered this problem, and how’d you fix it?
My Arturia minibrute had an even worse version of this problem where every knob, which has a soft-touch coating, became extremely sticky after several years. Many other owners reported the same problem and said the best fix was simply to replace all the knobs. I did that and a few years later, those replacement knobs have also gotten sticky.
The Elektron problem isnt nearly as bad but i would like to get the buttons feeling the way they used to, nice and clean and smooth.
Thanks!
