Sorry for be not too specific but i dont know much more.
The thing is that i use the megadrum and i upgreated to the new firmware. Then i play some moments and Everything was ok, until i power off the MD. The next moment whrn i turn it on, i hit the pads and didnt respond. Even the cymbals pads didnt work and this cymbals are the ones that came whit the rock band kit. The wired thing is that only the bass drum pad work, and the MD start the red led, and the MDM recognize this pad.
Please tell me if you need more info.

Thanks for your quick reply.

56. My megadrum is te 32 versión.
I put the MaxImput at 32 and had the same problem, then I put in a lowe imput number (30) and its ok, but i have a lot of losse hits.
I hit te pad for ex. 10 times and only hear 5 hits.

It appears that you're NOT using default config. Make sure MaxInputs is set to 32 and make sure AutoLoadConf is set to No.
