Hi all,
I have just bought a 2nd hand DM10 MK1 kit. It was pretty cheap but it works....Pretty much. I am a total electronic drum kit novice. But I have played real drums for years and years.
BUT
It has issues. I have have a read on here a bit earlier on and I found out how to test it. The Flash CRC check fails. The slider check fails for slider PRC3. All the other tests passed OK
The problem I am having is that the 3rd slider from the left (PERC3) doesn't work. Also when I move slider one it drops slider 3 to almost zero and stays there until a reboot. If the slider is all the way up I can play the toms but as soon as I move it it drops to almost zero. Also when I turn it on it fails calibration every time. I have calibrated the hi hat pedal.
I have tried a bit of contact cleaner. No joy. I have done a factory reset. No joy.
The Boot OS is version 1.00e, Trig OS is V1.00a, Sound ROM is V1.03, Sound OS is V1.00p
I have checked the PSU and it looks like it is an AC/AC adapter interestingly. Its an TDC power DB-12-09 9~V Max 12VA 230-240v 50hz UK plug.

I am fairly handy with fixing laptops so I am probably able to find and solder in a new slider/potentiometer or fit a new board. I think they are available but I have no idea how to fit one as I haven't looked inside and I can't find a service manual.
I think its worth putting some time and money into this DM10 to get it working properly. Like I say all the pads work fine as far as I can tell.
Your thoughts ladies and gentlemen please.
