Get a soldering iron?

Get a soldering iron?

I'm a soldering noob though, I'd break it worse. :3

[SnappleMan]

Get a real MIDI controller?

I'm a soldering noob, too, but I still managed to fix a broken mic cable. If the original soldering is bad you might even be able to get away with just touching the iron to the solder joint, melting it, and letting it dry again. Not as good as completely resoldering it, but it still might work. It'd be a good educational experience if nothing else.
