Roland micro cube
How to get into the box? the bigger ones are easy in comparison.
Such a litle thing putting up such a fight. I've removed the speaker to have a look inside and all I can assume is that it is just very strong metal/wood glue locking the top panel part into the woodwork. The rear section is loose of this L section panel but locked in place by the top section. Where and how to break this bond ? or something I've missed altogether ? -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |

Roland micro cube
Its that double sided glued foam stuff, large areas of it around the 3 sides
of the top section.. Eventually gained enough confidence to push a blade into the 3 to prize apart. -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |

Some of the glues dissolve the foam stuff. Bob Hofmann |

Roland micro cube
post mortem on the Jalco socket
No obvious problem but for minimal metal and plastic content and makes a nasty scratchy/clicky noise on turning a jack plug in there, probably because the tip contact is along the axis of the plug rather than across. I suspect it was failure to positively disengage the grounding contact as only something like paper thickness separation with the plug in place. I could not induce the problem as found and had to take word of owner that he had to bend the plug one way to make a contact. -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |

I had one at a gig a few weeks ago which wouldn`t go into the socket on a BSS d.i. box even tho it was perfectly round, just too large a diameter. Ron |
