Sounds like it's some weird setting or the input board cannot handle the 
simple triggers, which sounds weird to me.

OT: Regarding triggering two pads at the same time: The Star Instruments 
Synare PS-1 have tuneable hitting surfaces, but if you hit two it's not 
like on other analogue gear. On them you often get highest note priority 
etc. The Synare puts the voltages together for an even higher pitch than 
the highest tuned. Odd and very useful still... :D
