Help, are my pads too sensitive?

This may be a typical newbie question, but here goes. When I am using my MPC and trying to use the drum pads, I press the drum but I get double drums or triple drums. Am I doing something wrong or is something wrong with the set-up of the MPC.

Nothing is wrong with your pads, it's just your pressure on the pads. Once you get used to hitting them it will be fine, trust me. Almost EVERYONE has had this happen to them and they are fine once they learn how to hit the pad and get up off the pad quickly. You prolly let your fingers bounce on the pad for a quick millisecond and that is what you are hearing.. It's doing what it's supposed to do, sounding off when it feels pressure. It's you who has to control the tapping and pushing..

It's not a machine error..

Thanks!
