Strange padKontrol behaviour

Hey there,

I just got a padKontrol and am absolutely loving it, the pads feel incredible in comparison to other hardware I've used.

However, im curious as to what is going on with some of the pads.

On any of the 16 scenes presets, the top row of pads act strangely in two ways, firstly they refuse to correspond to the notes I set them to, for example I set one to C2, and it says C2 on the display, yet it triggers a completely different note, even though the other pads are triggering the correct notes.

Secondly, the top right pad does this weird pitching thing, it randomly pitches the sample. If I tap it at various velocities it seems to randomly trigger sounds of different pitch but my DAW (Live (Drum Rack)) shows the same note being played.

The only way to alleviate both issues is to call up one of the late preload scenes and map everything myself. Anyone know what the above functionalities/behaviours are caused by?

Thanks
