i just had the first problems with my 60 since i bought it last september. pads 1-4 are perfectly fine, but the rest of the pads trigger other pads. here's exactly how it goes:

5 -triggers- 5 & 9 (pad above)
6 -triggers- 6 & 10 (pad above)
7 -triggers- 7 & 11 (pad above)
8 -triggers- 8 & 12 (pad above)
9 -triggers- 9, 10, 11 & 12 (whole row)
10 -triggers- 9, 10, 11 & 12 (whole row)
11 -triggers- 9, 10, 11 & 12 (whole row)
12 -triggers- 9, 10, 11 & 12 (whole row)
13 -triggers- 13 & 9 (pad below)
14 -triggers- 14 & 10 (pad below)
15 -triggers- 15 & 11 (pad below)
16 -triggers- 16 & 12 (pad below)

it happens with all my programs, and even in step edit, none of them are set to trigger multiple sounds. i'm thinking maybe the contacts are dirty or the pads need replacing.

a similar problem occurred about 2 months ago, but quickly went away after a quick reboot, but this has been happening for 3 days now.

anyone have any ideas? thanks yall.

go to other, init params (might be different on the old OS) That should clear it up. Or check the midi note number assignments, the master one might have a lot of duplicate numbers for no reason.

Barring those too, you' probably need new pad sensors, but try the above first.
