Sounds like the VCA (for it has VCA:s, right dudes?) is fucked up. probably 
a broken component that will cost at least a couple of cents! ;) Finding it 
might be harder...

'But if there is sound it might be a broken pot too... hard to guess. You 
have to do more testing if guessing is what you want.

BTW, I've made two tracks in a row which includes the SDS-2. If you fiddle 
around enough and is light on the "Noise" (which is the crappiest noise I've 
heard in history, sounds more like a guy beating an oil container) and mix 
it carefully you get cool tom sounds and short electro bursts of drum noise 
a la preeset drum machines! :)

One day I'll share when I'm happy enough with it...

electronically yours, jesper
