Jerry,

Check to see where your mains cables run.  When I was looking at
signals from the pads into my magic box with my oscilloscope it
started happening and I think was caused by the oscilloscope mains
cable running past the kick drum cable.  The kick drum cable is the
only one that trails near the floor where the mains cables are.

Keith.
