Has anyone else had problems with the ION pads? I've been using mine since early October, and lately, the most-used pads have been separating from whatever is directly underneath them. This causes a definite decrease in sensitivity.

First my yellow pad, and now my red have shown this problem. I plan on returning them, but I'm curious about any possible fixes there might be. Taking apart the pads and "burping" them like a tupperware container hasn't worked very well so far.

I'm getting closer and closer to just sucking it up and buying a Roland kit, but I'd like to hold off until at least January if I can.
