And i hate them. They need very firm key presses to make a keystroke happen if it happens at all. I want to figure out what the original membrane was (blue/green) so i can get this to flip and replace it.

I'm sure someone will say i just need to do something with the plungers but all thats happened is where the maintenance is required has moved.

Hi fella ! , to tell which keyboard membrane your case needs look at the picture I did of a Green PCB type keyboard case, compare it to the one you have and there will be slight difference for the Blue PCB case

I found a spare green one and it fits. So we're good. The reason i'm attacking some 600s is to let h0ff and Ravi play a set without needing to bring machines to scotland.

There is no way they'd have been happy with that pcb type membrane. it was really frustrating to use.

I'm sure someone will say i just need to ...

try adding a sheet or two of copy paper between the plate and the back of the PCB?

They're already thicker than the real membranes. I just don't think pcb membranes are a good idea.
