After a few months of owning my desktop OB6, I'm starting to have two jumpy encoders (not the encoders problem again DSI ?). >:(
The Clock Value selector, and the LFO Shape encoders are getting increasingly jumpy. I'm afraid that eventually I won't be able to select the value that I want... For now, turning them rapidly several times reduces/eliminates the jumpiness temporarily. But it returns in the following days. My OB6 isn't being used that much. So I don't think that it's a wear problem. Probably more an oxidation of the contacts problem. Or perhaps the silicone lubrication on the shaft that is leaking onto the contacts ?
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else has noticed that on their OB6 ?

Thanks Robot Heart. If it ever get to the point of not being able to select the value I need, I'll be sure to do that.
