Hey April 18th (or somewhere around there...) I purchased Konamix and a DDR mat. The DDR mat is a softpad made by Cosmo Interactive i think? But anywayz, for the past like 2 weeks my up arrow has been sticking. Like whenever I push it, it never says i pushed it. Is there anyway to fix this besides buying a new mat?

You could cut the pad open and fix it yourself then sew it back up. Other then that, prolly just buy a new mat is the only option.

in the first place soft pads suck. I found that if you fold it it worsens the pad, which is usually done to those soft pads.

Not true. Foam inserts in soft pads can be very effective, and raised buttons on soft pads are incredibly sensitive. I'm a firm proponent in Buynshop.com Ultra Dance Pads.

I've found that soft pads are a throw up and sometimes they last sometimes they don't. I've gone through 6 pads in a year, the Konami soft pad lasted they longest at 6 months, then I got a BeatPad, lasted 2 days, my RedOctane softpad lasted 2 months, my ignitions both broke in a week and my Naki has been going for about a month with little or no problem. It's a toss up, sometimes your lucky sometimes not.
