Enter your vote today!  A new poll has been created for the 
DTXpress group:

kick pedal dropping beats poll.

Hi... Please fill this out even if you never had a problem with dropping beats.
choosing the 1st question only also has meaning too!!!

After searching the messages and changing alot of settings with no 
definitive solutions, I have come to the conclusion that the problem with 
the dtxpress dropping beats from the kick pedal is widespread and has 
not necessarily been solved (not for me anyway!lol. ) 

With your help I would like use this poll to try to determine:

1. how widespread the problem is, 
2. whether any of the solutions given have helped, 
3. whether the kind of pedal makes a difference
4. whether the kind of controller makes a difference
5.  if there is any grounding or static issues present. 
and some others

The more of us that complete this poll the better the 
results will be, so please fill it out even if you never had this problem

  o NO, I have not had problems with the kick pedal missing beats
