Just currious. THe delete button on my MR-8HD is off and on, usually off. This makes naming my tracks interesting to say the least.
 
Not mine... but I name them default song01, song02 etc, so its seldom used.
 
The [PGM SELECT] button on my VF160 doesn't work some times. If it ever gives up the ghost I'm fucked. I won't be able to switch between songs.
 
My No Button

Hi,

Sometimes my No button doesn't take a press or two. I can always get it to work but sometimes I have to press hard.

Other times click click click just like nothing. Works perfect.

Does anyone have any input on the apparently common problem with the buttons?

Thanks,

Hairy Larry
 
I once had a girlfriend whose buttons stopped working...... :eek:
 
They are cheap plastic, so they are going to break. The contact points beneath them are going to wear out too. I've been lucky that my MR-8 is pretty solid. So far, I've only had software related glitches that were fixed with updates.

But I've read on this forum and others about people having problems with all Fostex machines and the buttons.
 
the jog wheel is kinda fucked on my vf16, say for instance i'm at scene nine and i try to select scene ten it will jump back to seven or three or it will jump forward to twelve or seventeen, no matter how slow and patient i am with it, its hard to enough to select a track or a scene and its impossible to give a song a title....
 
I dropped a SM57 on my VF160 from about 12 inches and the jog wheel shot off. It took me a few minutes to find it. Snapped right back on.
 
Jog wheel problems

Hi,

Fortunately I don't have jog wheel problems. But it is touchy to use sometimes in normal operation.

On my VF160 I can use fast forward and rewind instead of the jog. Really helps when I'm making a CD-DA.

Thanks,
