Rock Band 2 Drumkit Disconnecting.

[LTM360]

About once every two songs, the drum set will just, disconnect, as if the batteries died.

I've replaced the batteries to the same result.

I don't know how to describe it other than, it just drops power for no apparent reason.

Any solution/suggestions?

for those having disconnect issues .... place some tape between the batteries and the cover.... your batteries are jarring loose .... thats whats causing the pads to become unresonsive and ur peddal only working or disconnecting completely.... ive done this tested it and it fixed my issue... im afraid to say that the screwdriver mod did not fix my second set ... 22808SL (on batter cover) it crosstalks yellow pad 50% .... wish i would have tried this mod on my first set before returning it im currently using a hairtie with no sock (ive heard rubberbands work too) but since the hair-tie has cotton over it already it seems to work better... 100% responsive and no crosstalk with this mod while i wait on my EA RMA to get here

yea i got my RMA drums today after returning 2 sets only to have to wait on EA's rma anyways... noticed some key improvements already... one the pipes fit more snug in the feet... they are actually a little larger to reduce vibration... the battery compartment is entirely different with spacers and actual rubber on the cover and not the foam type stuff so this is probably in response to the controller d/cing from the xbox after days of use jarring the batteries loose.... looks like they addressed most concerns before sending out rma's .... not really that they were ever out of em but i think they spent some time to get the sets right before sending them out... my old set was a 22808SL (inside battery on cover) and the new set with major improvements has no number on it so i uploaded some pictures for compairison http://www.duproductions.net/images/rb2drumsrma.jpg
