I searched the forum for a topic about this and didn't come up with anything, so, I don't think this is old, but if it is, please let me know.
So, I was playing expert score duel drums on LIVE when I ran into this guy that told me that he already sent his drum kit in due to unresponsive pads, just like the kit I'm using now. (I have 2 RB bundles, each different products from the 2 differnt factories, so, one works, or worked because the yellow and blue pads cracked, and the other is the one with not-as-responsive pads, which is what I'm using now.) So, he was telling me that as a temporary revival method of the pads, he stuck the pieces of cardboard that came wedged into the pads back into the pads and they worked, yet, he still had to get it replaced, which is obvious. So, I thought I'd try the same thing. So, I went to find the pieces, but I threw them out when I opened it, so I used these other random pieces that I found in the boxes, folded them in half to be thicker, forced them in my pads and EU-freakin'-REKA, the snare pad works perfectly, and so do the others. I don't know why they work because of the cardboard, but it does and I really don't care why. Maybe because it's looser 'cause my other drumkit's snare works better and they're all loose, so, that may be the reason.
But, I thought I'd let you guys know this just in case you don't know yet. Thanks guys!
