Since no-one has answered, I thought I'd just say hi, otherwise we'll
rapidly lose our reputation of being a happy bunch.

Personally, I've not actually played with the rejection settings, I
got rid of all my crosstalk problems (I only got crosstalk when I
re-arranged the pads away from the recommended Yamaha setup) by
re-siting the pads so hitting one didn't vibrate another.

Another possibility is the .. ummm, what's it called .. oh yes, the
Trigger Setup. I'm currently using DT10/20 while I'm waiting for a new
bass drum pedal. See p12 of the owner's manual.

Good luck
