Hello Keith,

I`ve measured the resistance today and I have the same
values than you- but I`ll find it almost impossible to
get the readings between 150k and 350k! I cannot hit
and hold them even for a second, neither with my feet
nor with my hand! The only value in between that I`m
halfway capable of hitting an holding is the 350k,
next will be eternity.
Even stranger when you assume what the guy from
drumtec told me (7 resistors...)?!
I`ve also found another setting in the drumset overall
parameters that is named HH sensitivity, played around
with it but didn`t do much diference at all.

greetings,
Wolfgang
