Browse knob works maybe 50% of the time
Posted on: 07.04.2013 by Merlyn Birchfield
My browse knob (as far as turning it left or right) works maybe half of the time. Sometimes I'll turn it 3 or 4 revolutions and nothing will happen. Sometimes it works fine. Sometimes it will skip a couple "clicks" and then work.

Very frustrating. Anyone else run into this?

I've had the unit since it came out so I'm sure I have no kind of warranty. I don't imagine this thing is too user-serviceable? I also have a stuck FX button.

A decent hardware mixer is a good step up from controllers, especially the S4
