Re: [DTXpress] Re: Another type of Hi Hat related question

Thanks Keith,

I'll try it out and let you know how it works. I've
noticed that my new hihat is very senstive at times. I
sometimes get a spash hit when I simply want a closed
high hat sound. Do you know of anyway to fox this. I
tried playing with the sensitivity settings but I
didn't notice any difference.
