Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

What is the group name for Hart?  I post here because the core of my 
kit is the DTXtreme brain w/5 yam pads.  The Harts were add ons.  We 
had a reheasal yesterday.  My volume was a little lower than usual, 
and I had one drop out hitting the beginning snare crack for Breaking 
the Law.  It seems the drop outs only occur during what might be 
considered an extra hard hit.  Today I plan to tension the snare head 
just a little more.  I am also interested in hearing from anyone else 
having similar problem with Hart or Roland mesh heads.

For the record, if I turn my volume up and play less aggressively I 
NEVER experience a problem, but its just a little too loud then for 
stage volume.  This may just be a matter of continueing to experiment 
with volumes, gains and velocities, etc.
