When i hit a pad, i hear the sound assigned to it.
The problem is that when i lift my finger off the pad - it plays the sample again.
So i get double kicks, and double snares etc.
Is this a malefunction, or some sort of setting i have to change?

Thanks.

Sounds like you just need to work on your technique, hitting the pad.
Most of us went through it when we started.

Hmmmm.... nope. Sorry. Not a matter of technique.
It's just that i didn't have this problem before, and it suddenly started a day ago.
Have i been playing this machine for a couple of months - and suddenly "lost my technique"? I don't think so.
You can even hear this problem better, when i play loops. I press the pad and the loop starts to play, and when i remove my finger from the pad it plays again. As if removing the pressure from the pad also triggers the samples.
Seems to me there's something wrong, or maybe some settings got changed by mistake.
The question is what's wrong.

Thanks! That seems to do the trick.

The strange thing is that it's the first time i'm on that screen, so i'm kind of wondering how did it change in the first place...
