Dead Keys on Roland/rhodes

Dead Keys on Roland/rhodes

2001-12-25 by Peter Blackett

Dear regan_2002 
a lot of the Roland [ and other manufacturers ]keyboards  use rubber
contact strips under the actual keys .
after some use these can wear and cause problems such as notes not
playing [or playing too loud ].
you should be able to get replacement contact strips from Roland ,
and it might well be worth getting a copy of the service notes as these
should help you disassemble the unit .
the contacts might just need cleaning , but I've found it better to
change the contact strips .
regards for Boxing day and the new year ,
