remove the hex screw...and pull the black knobs off of the front.

Like, did you remove the silver standoff that is like in the middle of the board? It might not be like so obvious at first but it like holds it all in. Short of that, like, the knobs on like the outside, need to be like pulled on really hard to like get everything to like free up. There was like a thread on here like a while back where like someone (I think RyanSpeer) was like having the same issue. I am not sure if like there were more replies there that like helped explain it all. I like looked inside mine once but ended up just like leaving it alone. Like.

 

Like good luck! :D

 

And like welcome to HCEF. :wave:

straight towards you....get a rag and some needle-nose pliers. damn near impossible to pull of with your fingers, unless you are one of these guys...

From what I hear, they REALLY need a good yanking to get them to budge.

yeah, pliers for the knobs.

you also need to take the black threaded nut things off all the jacks on the back

 

However, it doesnt sound like your problem is a mechanical error. the tactile switches that the stomps hit are NOWHERE near each other. If you dont see anything weird try a factory reset
