So I picked up a brand new Live 2 retro yesterday, finally got a chance to play with it tonight and am so disappointed with the pads! Double and triple triggering but at the same time insensitive and not registering some hits. It's insane. It seems the centre of the pads are incredibly insensitive, and the edges are significantly more sensitive. Changing pad sensitivity settings is not helping whatsoever, not unsurprising if the sensitivity isn't consistent across each pad.
Still have my Live 1 and loaded the exact same kit on both machines and the difference is night and day. On the mk1 the sensitivity is equal across the whole pad surface and it's fully sensitive to light touches everywhere, no double trigger and no missed hits, complete joy to play, all using the '8/8' 'curve A' defaults.
I'm assuming this Live 2 is a duff unit so it's going back. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this on these newer units?
