[quote="pablomastodon"]I'm thinking that a strip of ordinary plastic wrap from the kitchen could be laid over the top of the contact strips to act as a "crumb catcher"
Why don't they do it ?
I'll try cause 5 month after getting the NS2 EX i had to clean a contact ....: -(
Thanks Pablo

Just curious - how much do you have to pay for cleaning the keybed on a NordStage2 or similar keybed at a Nord Sertified repair shop? - Of course different prices in different markets, but approximately how much work for a professional? 2 hours? Any experiences?

SW73 keybed can be done in 45 minutes start to finish -- if you're just cleaning a single problem note. Overall general cleaning of entire instrument perhaps an hour total. HA76/88 consume a bit more time.
In the USA labor rates vary widely, from $65/hr to $140/hr. Manhattan shops have to pay Manhattan rent.
Bless,
Pablo

I had one key playing at a very high velocity on my Stage EX 73SW. I was able to cure this by removing this single key and gently massaging the rubber contacts under the key. This was enough to dislodge any crud and cure the problem. Removing the rubber strip and cleaning is also good but would mean quite a lot more work.
