I've had my v-pro's w/TD-10EXP now for two years, and never had a problem that wasn't a result of my ignorant system knowledge. However, I now have a problem that probably requires a service tech along with a big bill to boot! For some reason my low tones are coming out distorted. If I select "Pile Drive" for my kick, change the shell to deep for that extra bass sound and kick it med-hard I get some serious distortion. At the same setting, if I lightly kick it, it sound like it's supposed to. This also occurs with my toms when I have a deep low setting. I tried everything I could think of to fix it myself and nothing works. I bought new cords, swapped pads, cleaned the jacks and every input on the back of the 10. I also cleaned the inputs for each pad with electrical cleaner. Nothing seems to work! The last resort was to re-initialize the TD-10 which I just tried to no avail. The problem isn't significant to my master outs only. It does this through each of my direct outs and through the headphones as well. Has anyone ever had a problem similar to this that could shed some light on what I could expect? I think there may be some dust inside the unit that could have corrupted something causing corrosion to some of the sensitive guts. I live on a dirt road and my house does get dusty from time to time. It could be that I need to store the TD-10 in a case or bag or something to keep the dust off. Thanks for any help or advice you can give. I had just asked for advice a few days ago on some speakers I plan to buy soon. Depending on how serious this is, I may have to put them on hold to pay the blood-sucking repair man/woman
