Useful video! 1:10 Notice location of the Memory Card slot! ( To the right of chip marked 5. ) Use a larger memory card for more recording time

The metal part of one of Faders has snapped off of my 505. I’m not too tech savvy and was wondering if its hard to fix? Great video man👌🏻

[Scessions]

Man thanks for doing this!!! Just in case!! Part of my act so I’ll reference back if need be

[langerkompane]

Thanks for the video.
So would it be possible to just take of the top to clean the buttons and stuff? I really don't want to mess up with the electronics on the bottom 😅

[Jonjuice]

Would you or anyone know how to get the metal piece that connects to the slider/fader? Mine broke off.

[djbeatsthemagicofsounds]

Seems like my readers has some issues of volume. How can we repair it any idea? Should I open and clean it?

THANK YOY my rc buttons working again!!! :D

[lukejbonner]

Hi there sir!

So I’ve had a speaker fall on my looper three times, and removed/ damaged two of the fader knobs,

Wondering if I should try opening this myself or send it directly to Roland boss?

Thank you so much!

Great video ... gives me hope . yet my problem is there is a broken fader ... Would you have any idea where i can purchase ? Not the knob part just the slider inside .

[carloloop]

Hi I want to buy an rc 505 second hand, but it says that one slider is broken. Does it refer to the actual slider or the knob that goes on top? It doesn’t include pictures it just shows the description of it. It’s from Amazon

[dreckras]

Great video bro you know Wich type of cleaning product for the 🎚 faders my start to cut the sound

[CharlesMiner]

I sold mine on ebay and the buyer returned it with a broken fader. It’s super loose and gets stuck. Is this fixable?

[asihiphop]

Has anyone ever replaced a fader on one of these? Would be cool to upgrade them so they’re not so rickety, Or just replace if they end up breaking.

[ktmadventure]

How to change the 5 fader please ... thanks !

[JijoBreadman]

do you have any info on why my input fx and track fx buttons don't work? I tried cleaning the contact points but the buttons still don't work

[hardlines]

Some models have the micro SD card covered in sealant so you can’t upgrade, I changed mine to 32gb.

[mohammadalmasri]

my track 1 fader isn't working but the problem is that the volume of track 1 is lower than the other tracks .. is there any idea how to fix that? .. i am afraid to open the machine

Thank you, I want to put a bigger memory into mine. I wonder if it's a memory card, I believe I read somewhere in the FB group that it's a SD card. Any advice, is the card easy to locate/ exchange with a bigger card, did you see it?! Thanks, great video!
