i have tried it again today... 

looks like these noisy sounds have now become a permanent error on 
my sp12. when i switched it on again today, there were the same 
things going wrong as yesterday. i can say more about the problem 
now, because i have tested a few things:

- tried to put user sounds on the "failing" drum-buttons, that works 
fine. i also have a list of all the factory-drums making the 
described problems. 

snare1 (completely)
snare2 (completely)
ride1  (completely)
ride2  (completely)
crash  (just a slight bit of the end)

i have recorded the failure and will send you an email, with an mp3 
attached. you can answer me via email if you want - or in the forum, 
depending on your oppinion wether this could be of any interest for 
other users... 

thanx in advance and please don´t destroy all my hopes of me, 
eventually haveing all my emu´s working 100% - ok :-(
