No really good idea unless you're in the US ready to ship to mr Lightner...

I'm curious to what the problem might be... My  SDS-V is behaving strange 
when choosing factory sound on the hihat card (I know, taboo to use factory 
preset!). If I choose that 3-4 LEDs light up and I get a mix of all those 
sounds! Cool feature, but after ten minutes or so it's "just" the chosen 
preset left since the other drop off one after the other. I guess changed 
buttons or maybe even some lousy IC on the inside would do the trick...

Is it something like this?!

electronically yours, jesper
