As I've reported, hitting the same pad 20 times will bring out one

(faint) sound.  I do not think the Alesis Control Pad is changing MIDI

note number during these 20 hits on the very same pad.
I also do not think the Control Pad has cross-pad noise (it is

adjustable) as cross-pad noise does not happen when using Hydrogen nor

does it happen when using the Control Pad to trigger the sounds of a

M-Audio Prokeys 88 keyboard with built-in sounds.
Clearly, the Alesis Control Pad seems to be working fine.

Qsynth also works fine when played by the keys and pad of both M-Audio

keybaords (Axion 25 and Prokeys 88).

Ouside of luck, there must be a good friggin' reason why it is not

possible to reliably trigger Qsynth sounds (with velocity!) from an

Alesis Control Pad.
