Hello everyone new guy here. Sorry if this question doesn't make sense can't think of an easy way to explain it.

When i'm playing a bassline with the 16 levels tune feature and I try to play back and forth between a couple pads sometimes the pads won't trigger the sound.

I always hit the pads hard and in the center and it only has this problem when i go between two pads real quick.

So my question is, has anyone else had this problem? Is it a problem or limitation with the pads, hardware, software? Or is it just me hitting the pads wrong?

the problem is with the 16 note function

your samlpes most likely are NOTE ON, which means that if you hit 2 notes, both cut off when you let up on one

the answer is to not use 16 note for main melodies and / or basslines, use real pgms

or check to see if that pad/sample is playing in mono or poly. if mono, then change it to poly
