Re: [elektron] MD OS 1.30b and Scrolling bug

2006-03-20 by Corey Appleby

Try using it regularly for awhile.  Mine started doing the exact same  
thing when I didn't use the MD for a couple months (shame on me!) but  
after using the selection knob a good bit it cleared up.  I think  
maybe some gunk had just built-up inside and using it a bit worked it  
loose.
