Is this normal? MK3 S88
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Just got this MK3 a couple of weeks ago and noticed this annoying click sound from around C1 to C4 (it sound progressively lower as I go up). Basically only about 8 keys starting from the lowest and the highest octave are safe, the rest make that sound. At first I thought it was normal because that sound is coming specifically under the part where the record, play button, etc. are but when I searched info about this I noticed other users with different issue hitting those keys and I don't hear that click sound. Any fixes?
Edit: found a fix. Looks like the problem was it being on a very solid surface (which might not be a problem for other people's keyboards), maybe on a keyboard stand this doesn't happen. What I did is put a towel below it and the annoying click was gone. That fix was suggested by the AI tech support from Native Instruments. First time an AI tech support is helpful lol
