Re: [AN1x] New AN1X owner!

2011-10-10 by Reyes Perez

I tried out the electibe knobs and they fit great but the feel too small in the fingers to use haha.  Oh well, it's not a big deal what IS a big deal is Assign 4's pot seems to be busted.  I have to lean it to the left then turn it if I want it to register value, and once I let go it resets to 0.
I may just have to email Yamaha about a direct replacement pot.  If no luck there, I'll just try opening it up and see if the wiper is bent or something.
