Sticky/melting buttons; like the actual texture is sticky

They did release them, you just have pay extra for a non defective product, and install them yourself.

That’s great news. Thanks for the link.

£97 to replace 2 sets of defective buttons (plus I’ve already paid £50 previously for another set of buttons that will also eventually rot)!

I’d like to replace them so I can use them again but paying that much out of pocket because of a terrible design/manufacture decision in the first place really takes the cake.

buy the UV coated ones - they will not become sticky as the rubber ones that come by default.

Just as an alternative, you could actually print replacement buttons yourself quite inexpensively, or buy pre-printed ones online. Some people also simply rub off the coating carefully; there are guides available for that here if you’d like to try.

Can Elektron please make knob replacements as well as smooth button caps for Tonverk available. Users of MK1s, AR and AK4 seemed no longer serviced.

Current line-up.
