    What X1 are you talking about? Original x1, x1 mk2 or the new mk3?

    It is an X Mk 3 I think, I bought it from Native Instruments

    Well they are all from Native Instruments :P

    The ones with the lights underneath and displays at the top is the mk3

    Anyhow, what do you mean by:

    have become so loose a sensitive

    Are they very sensitive? Or less sensitive?

    They are very sensitive I sometimes knock them when I press another button on my X1MK3 and, they moves the loop settings so very, very easily. I rarely use the loop functionality so I can't understand how they have become so loose ?

    Is there a way I could try to firm the flexibility of them up ? I'm sure I used to be able to recalibrate them, not sure if that used to keep them stable or not ?

    Only thing that comes to ming is creating traction between the encoder cap and the controller surface. If someone has a better idea I'm all ears, because my unit is the same - can't use it.

    I'm not aware of any calibration for the mk3. Never seen that.

    The very first patch of the new x1 mk3 had very sensible encoders. So much so that they changed it later on. If you bought your x1 mk3 right when it came out you might have gotten the very sensitive encoders:

    But that also means they have always been like this on your device. Are you sure they changed over time?

    What can I try to firm them up ? I bought my X1 MKIII on 26.10.2023. They shouldn't be this loose already ? Especially if I don't hardly use them. Please Native Instruments can you help me please ?
