Re: Maintenance

Steph:
Thanks for the advice. Believe me, I've already learned about cable-
labeling. With two modules and 15 triggers, I've developed a color-
coded system that helps me set up the kit in short order.

Feezesus:
Yes, I'm replacing EVERY cable and EVERY head whether it needs it or 
not. It's better to be safe than sorry. I'd rather do it all now than 
in the middle of gig. The cables and heads that are still serviceable 
will go into the emergency repair kit that I hope I never have to use.


As far as other maintenance items go, I know that guitar players 
often 'clean thier pots' on amps and guitars. Should the same be done 
for pads and modules? What does this involve? Maybe Q-tips and 
alcohol?
