Doepfer

Hello Les!

First of all: The cynthia stuff is cool!
Now about the ribbon: A good friend of mine recently bought the
ribbon strip seperately 
without the case etc. (it is possible at doepfer).
He built his own controller from this and a USB gamecontroller for
use with the 
supercollider dsp environment. He was complaining about the same
thing.
So I'm sorry to say but it seems to be a feature of the ribbon
itself...
I hope you'll find a solution!
