Now I know for all you people that are awaiting to recieve you're upgrade this isn't what you want to hear but it seems most of you have had good results from these, I just wish I knew what was wrong with mine..

Nym did you have to sort the 1mm gap before they were sensitive? I seriously need to do something, these are worse than my old pads when they were new/not broken.




Same problem here

I just recently got my upgrade from MPCStuff and I have felt really good about the new pads that I got... At the same time, the promise of how sensative they are has passed me by. I keep my pads set at the lowest possible settings at all times. The whole bit about having to set your OS pad setting lower has proved to be a pipe dream when it comes to my pads. It may be a case of "I'm so happy that it works" that I have given up on them working how I wished they would in the first place,,,,
I do like the way my Mp works right now with the pads set at their most sensative. I have yet to experience a "vibration" setting off an undesired pad. I would never dream of making them less sensative. ?

I installed mine yesterday, and I'm happy with it... not as good as on mpc2000xl or so, but definitly better than the originals.... fortunately, i didn't have any problems with sensitivity, as many of you.....

Peace
