I have had my v-pro set now for 17 months, TD-10 EXP, and never encountered a problem. I began to play the other day and noticed a lot of destortion comming from the speakers.
Here is my delima:
I changed one of my cymbal sounds to the "thunder" sound and lowered the bass for that pad to give it some depth. The lower the sound the worse the distortion. I was running my drums through my home stereo sys. as I have done many times with no problems. At first, I assumed the problem was my speakers inability to handle the lower sound. I was wrong. My speakers are fine. I wasn't using my headphones at the time so I played with them on to attempt to isolated it at the TD-10exp. It was more distorted in my phones than the speakers! I continued to try to isolate the problem by switching cords from pads and changing pads out. to no avail my problem remained. Thinking it may just be the cymbal out that was bad, I changed all my pads to the same "thunder" setting and lowered the bass to see. Every stinking pad is distorted and I don't know why!! I think something is majorly screwed up in my TD-10exp. I haven't changed any settings or tweaked anything. The only thing I did was turn down the base for each individual pad to try and duplicate the problem and I did. I should be able to turn the base all the way down and not get any distortion! It happens on the "bomb" sound as well. As a matter of fact, any low tone even from toms and my kick is distorted. Now I have BABIED my kit to the point that my wife if jealous of my affection to it. I have never bumped, dropped, spilled drinks on, kicked or otherwise cursed any portion of my kit, especially the TD-10exp., for any reason!! Every time I move her, it's slow and easy. What gives?? Does anyone have any suggestions? The guy I talked to at Roland had no idea and didn't offer any suggestions either! What planet are they from anyway? As much as I put into this kit, it shouldn't be breaking down on me already! I need help!! And, some words of wisdom would go a long way as well. Thanks
