Basically the snare output has trouble getting the snare sound and sometimes the tom go back and forth with its sounds and the buttons that transfer you to different sounds on the channels don't always work. I am also missing a couple of knobs and the little square rubber pads.

Hi Richard,

Simmons is no more. The company folded many many moons ago.

There are a number of places that could do the repairs in the U S. The big
question is if it is worth it ?

What is wrong with it ?
