Does the drum have a foam rubber cylinder between the mesh head and the piezo?  
That was the old style design for Pintech, not sure about newer ones.  I 
replaced the cylinder with a tapered design from Roland which seems to work 
better.  You can also replace the mesh head with a regular head and see what 
happens.  And eventually you may need to play around with module sensitivity.  
My impression is Pintech mesh drums aren't the best, but you can get them to 
work okay with a little effort.

Subject: [DTXpress] New Mesh Head !

  
Guys just rec'vd a Pintech (by Roland) dual zone 10 in snare, used. 
But, in what looks to be good shape. 1st mesh head so it's new to me. 

Do I need to really re-adjust sensitivity for this snare now.? 
I hit the mesh head and unless im exactly over the piezo I don't resister a good 
hit..AND its kinda spotty--
missing some hits (if I really hit it hard and in the center). 

Wondering if its a setting, multiple settings or Maybe the mesh head is bad? ?
