Just a word of warning, http://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/showthread.php?t=58035 be very careful spraying Servisol 10 around any plastic parts. WT

I didnt replace any encoder in the end,- just replaced the Schmitt-Trigger chips and cleaned the original rotarys w/ Servisol Super 10 ! The replacements are still in the box,- o.k. ? Even the 2

Well, I didnt say I wont recap at all,- but not yet. I never had a failing OSC chip since I buyed it new,- and I have a replacement chip here. One of the 3372 failed over a decade ago and I replaced,-

if you said the replacments your purchased were just as loud and as "clicky" as the originals, then I'm telling you they are not the same. The ones from Syntaur are smoother, quieter, but still have

Maybe ... Id use em too when Id have to. My originals work and I didnt buy any NOS encoders,- its the 1st set except 2 which are also originals and replaced 2 of the 1st when originals were available

If you don't recap, caps could fail and in turn destroy CEM chips like filters and oscillators. I had to replace a *CEM 3374* "*Dual VCO chip* "due to a capacitor had failed, very expensive component

Id go for that kit too when in need to replace,- just because its complete w/ the rubber rings and debounce caps. But I think the encoders are the same we ordered from Mouser. Unfortunately my tech

the new encoders from Syntaur are MUCH better than the originals and are high quality. I don't see any reason why they wouldnt last as long or longer than the NOS encoders.

Thanks I will look into getting the Syntaur solution... it isn't so expensive really...

I agree, cleaning is a temporary solution IMO and I've had similar experiences as you. you need the debounce capacitors. And the kit I used was the same kit from Syntaur. High quality encoders and

I originally cleaned my encoders with Deoxit that I was given by DSI to clean my PolyEvolver (which degraded after only a year). I only did 2 drops in each encoder and everything worked perfectly...

good to know as an option. Ive used cleaning solutions on some of my other gear, like my System-100m. However usually it does not change the physical "feel" of the pot/fader movement. So if it feels

rock-n-roll! glad you got it :)

Brilliant! That was it!

We replaced the Schmitt-Trigger chips in my Xpander and cleaned the rotarys w/ Servisol Super 10 switch cleaner even we had buyed replacements alread and were about replacing the old ones. My Xpander

Lets make sure you are doing the right thing. When I say "cap", I am referring to the small little cap on the very top of the plastic encoder. Not the entire encoder itself. It looks like its one

Many thanks! I will give it a try... I tried with a penknife but I honestly felt like I would break the unit if I applied anymore pressure.

I recently replaced the encoders on my Xpander and it was not that difficult to get the caps off the encoders. they should come up with a slight amount of pressure. The tricky part is that they are

Thinking of replacing the encoders at some point as one of them is out and another is intermittent. I have the excellent Xplorer software but functions like pan position aren't possible from it. But I
