1. Freezing - I cannot think why that should happen.  Possibly a power
glitch; bad connection on the power connection at the back?  Make sure
the cable is looped round the lug on the back of the module. Is the
power supply the correct one?

2. Kick pedal missing - you need to play around with the rejection
parameters.  Try reducing them to zero for the kick pad.  Does it only
happen when playing live?  If so, there have been reports of problems
when you are close to the speaker - the vibrations get picked up by
the pads if it is very loud and you are too close.
