Yo KEEZ:
I used to use the SR16. I now use the Boss 770 and a couple of weeks ago my cymbal pads were really weak -- don't know what happened to them.
HOWEVER, I used the manual and punched up the "reset" code.
Doing this automatically reset everything and, Voila, my cymbals came back as good as ever.
Now, if the SR16 doesn't have a reset function, I guess the only thing you can do is send it in for repair and, as we all know, that isn't cheap.
BUT, here is something I found in the SR16 manual in the Troubleshooting section:
Symptom: Drums won't pan in stereo field.
What's wrong: Drum set panning parameters are set incorrectly. Bad audio cables. Pad's mix level is set to 00 or Panning not correct.
What to do: Check Drum set parameters for correct output selection, Check cables by replacing with known good cables, Check drum set parameters for correct mix level, or Check drum set parameters for useful pan position.
