I just discovered that my bad pad number seven behaves like Mark  
Sottilaro described. I'm now able to get Number Seven to work by  
kicking it very hard on the upper area of the pad with my heel (may  
soon need Combat Boots for looping...). I guess this new order will  
only speed up the recently initiated Belly Up Process of my trusty  
old FCB. I've  had it for almost five years now, so I guess it's  
about time to buy a new one anyway.

Question:
I'm going to Santa Cruz in october and if I can buy a FCB1010 there  
it will save me USD 60 in luggage overweight fees. Is it possible to  
shop a FCB1010 in Santa Cruz without any hassle? I mean, do the music  
stores over there keep them in stock?

I bring my personal FCB settings with me as MIDI Sysex data and can  
retrieve them on any FCB pedal in seconds. Just need to hook up my  
laptop with a MIDI cable and push two buttons.
