But I pulled it out of the attic when I was rearranging my studio, to remind myself to finally work on it (like 9 months ago)
And today, the journey finally paid off! Opened it up, swapped the encoders, replaced a couple electrolytic caps that looked sketchy, repaired the lifted pad I fucked up while taking out the old encoders (😅😅😅), and bob’s your uncle.
Fully working and ready to be integrated into the set up.
