My wonderful wife surprised me with a DTXpress system for Christmas.  
I have some new user questions for y'all.
1) the output through the headphones is not very loud (I have to turn 
all the way up to cover the pad noise).  Is this normal, or is there 
some control I have wrong?
2)  I get a ride cymbal sound if I strike the toms hard or anywhere 
on the frame.  Sense too high?
3) I have the sense as high as possible on snare, yet it will not 
pick up true pianissimo play.  Also, there seems to be a "speed 
limit" on rim shots (will not play all notes if I do a single stroke 
roll of shots, i.e.). And there seems a limit to articulation on 
snare (fast flam patterns lose the flams).  How can I adjust, or is 
this a problem with this snare?
Thanks in advance for your help.  Gotta go play now!
Keith
