Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my pitch wheel. I first noticed it when using a layer with 2 leads, one has the standard whole step bend, and the other has 2 octaves of bend. When I move the wheel they both reach the note they're supposed to but when I release the wheel they dont always go all the way back...and they are both out of tune. This had already happened to me about 2 years ago and it turned out to be that the spring that holds the wheel in place was loose and wasnt taking it back correctly, but that was a 10 year old keyboard so I can understand why something would be loose, but I bought this one new about a year ago and I dont understand how it could wear out so fast. I used to open the old one up a lot because I knew it well and knew that if I messed anything up I could get it fixed here in the city (that was an alesis Qs8) and I was able to replace the spring myself but this is a kurz pc2x and I live in mexico and there aren't any kurz maintenance shops, dealerships or anything down here to take it to safely to make shure its the spring. I had to bring it down from usa.
Has this ever happened to anyone else? I would be very thankfull for any suggetions.
