Need assistance opening up the Maschine Jam Hardware

JAB3

What's up, Maschine Jam Fam,

I just purchased a used Jam this week (with full license transferal). The key are yellowish from oxidation and it smells a little like cigarette smoke.

So I am in the process of opening it up to restore/whiten the keypads and such. Yes, I broke the warranty seal, to save you the comments. LOL

But the problem is that, while it only has 13 screws on the back, which I successfully removed, for some reason, the top right corner of the maschine jam is not giving and is still tightly closed. I shined lights in there, and don't see any screws holding it. Plus there are no extra screws on the back. I am afraid to pry open the last corner, but may have to.

Anyone out there opened up a Maschine Jam before? Any ideas?

Thanks,

JAB3

Look under the top right rubber foot, there is a screw underneath apparently.

Hello JAB3,

I very much feel you. Did you manage to open it? I am in the same exact situation, I too am scared to force it open so I am stuck.

I tried contacting NI support about this, but it has been a month and all they did was point me to their repair service. Which, by the way, is more expensive than buying a second-hand unit.

I will post here any news about this, please let me know if you find/found out how to open it.

Thank you,

Luca
