Hi, This is a continuation of an Off-topic talk about the MCX8000s tendency to have broken buttons in this Thread: Let us tinker with it! - #12 by DjChachi
Symtom: Sunken in Play/Cue/Sync button
Cause: Broken Button “matt”. AKA the Button has broken of his connection to the other Buttons.
Problem: The Button isnt usable on one side andmight (over time) cause follow up damage to the pcb/switch.
Solutions:
- Buy replacement Button matt
- Cant find supplier in Europe
- Glue
- Doesn’t hold up well
- Alignment of parts is hard
- Helps only once
- 3D-Print brace
- Stiffens up the button
- Not tested
- Might need to be glued too (see 2.)
- 3D print replacement
- Would need MSLA,DLP or SLA Printer (FDM printed will look out of place)
- Not tested
- Would replace all buttons in that cluster
- Labels would have to be made
- Wouldnt look original
All Methods require a near full disassembly of the Deck in order to get to the buttons (from behind).
So my conclusion is: Please find me a place in the EU where i can buy replacement parts for Denon DJ devices.
DjChachi is willing to investigate 3d Printing.
I have also access to FDM 3d printers and laser cutters and might come up with something.
