Re: problem with dtxpress hihat

2001-11-04 by dialog_mb@yahoo.com

Yes, I am using a stereo cable. I was playing with the hihat 
sensitivity today and found that I was able to reproduce the 
elusive "third sound" by ramping up the sensitivity. However, I only 
get it when I'm stomping on the pedal very rapidly, not when I'm 
hitting the trigger pad with the stick, hoping to find that "halfway 
open" sound.

Am I wrong to assume that there should be 3 sounds, depending on how 
hard you press the pedal with your foot?  Are there actually only 
two sounds (open and closed) that can be achieved that way?
