BTW, from the context of your posts, it seems to me that you're describing traces, not vias. IIRC, a via is a through-hole with no component lead soldered through it. A via's purpo…

Seems like you've nuked the classic II as I have. I can sell you my classic 2 Lobo if you want. I think it has leaky caps, but it's stock. The Analog board on mine is nuked.

Well thats weird. Now all the keys are working. I'm happy, but still, I'm convinced there's a problem there somewhere. Click to expand... Congrats! That said, intermittent bug…
