Re: [DTXpress] Inconsistent rim shots

2002-02-10 by Walt

Hi Michael,

One thing you might play with is if you have both of
these pads on inputs 1-6, you might try to set the dip
switch on the back of the DTXpress for those pads to
the real sensitive setting.  Also, the pads themselves
have sensitivity adjustments on them - one thing you
have to watch our for though is vibrations from other
pads triggering these.  You can counteract that with 
the Rejection parameter.   Walt
