Damn, something like 2 minutes ago I broke my Alesis QS 6.1 pitch wheel...it's the first time, I feel so bad :cry: :cry: :cry:
I've opened my baby something like 5 times to fix power faults (had to change the fuse) so I know the build of this machine...but I don't know what components I'm supposed to look for to fix a broken pitch wheel spring (the wheel doesn't get back to the center...
Any help or experience is appreciated, thanks guys.

Had this exact problem on my old QS 8.

Now, for me the spring behind the wheel had just popped out of place. It was easy to re-allign it. If the spring is actually broken, it will need to be replaced.

i broke mine twice, last time it was 2 weeks ago practicing take the time , (The solo part), the first time i've had a spring just like the one that broke so iv'e replace it , this time i used rubber bands as an experiment (it drops back to center faster) but the rubber softened so looking for a new spring , Hope it Helps.
