Sorry, I was being dense ... there is another option. If by "song"
you mean that you're playing along with the module's built-in songs,
then this may be a polyphony issue. The brain only has a limited
number of voices that can be used simultaneously. When a song is
playing, depending on its complexity, it's using a lot of the
available voices which doesn't leave many for your pads. The brain
may just be grabbing the voice used by your cymbal because it needs
it for something else. There is absolutely nothing you can do about
this, I'm afraid.
