Most of the Roland buttons on this type equipment use a small switch that is actuated by a plastic button that is HINGED from a plastic panel behind the faceplate or a part of it. These plastic hinges get broken when too much force is applied to the button... it is USUALLY fatal and requires replacement of the whole button faceplate... and they are expensive... contact Roland parts to inquire.

Install the software non the disc or from their website before you plug it in. Try googling drivers for it.

I have a similar Yamaha that makes me re-record the 16 tracks of the song onto the stereo track (left and right) then save. See if under the record setting if it has an option to "record to stereo track" or something similar. Hope that helps.

This is NOT likely to be a problem with the power source at all but more likely with some setup parameter. Search your manual for subjects like "quantize" and also sampling rates.

full up the volume control

This is just a guess and the purpose is for you to get the datasheet and compare connections and see if they make sense... I have to do this often myself when documentation is unavailable.

Look up the datasheet for LM3886 on google and compare the package, electrical connections, etc. to see if that might be what is used.

MANY audio amps at this power level use this chip for the 50 to 68 watt range. They cost about $4 from the right sources.

If this is not what is used, the amp is probably in the TDA series of 5 and 7 pin TO220 style packages.

Other methods for these amps may involve class D switching amps and those usually use MOSFET transistors, not IC's.

you could try a cd lens cleaner to clean the lens in the unit.

They have to be recorded on SEPERATE tracks if you want to keep them seperate. It will be hard to do this live as if you mic acoustics you will still get some cross feed in the mics from the different percussions.

With an electronic drum set it may be even harder as they often only have a single mixed output.

The way the professionals would do this is to play the kick and record it on a track... and then play that track back and record the snare and hat each seperately on other tracks.

Once you have synced tracks of the parts, then you can mix anyway you want.

With electronic drums you COULD have two seperate modules to give you two seperate outputs, but that is a budget breaker.

You might go look on the vsplanet.com website for help.
