Re: [DTXpress] dtxpress II - just bought it - need help

2002-08-29 by Walt

Hi Bohasi, and congratulations on your new kit.
This is not normal, so rest assured that you will get
rid of this problem.  The only thing that hits me as
far as what to look for is the rejection settings in
the trigger menu.  You can set up pads to specifically
reject other pads, in addition to setting a more
blanket rejection parameter.  I don't know if the
menus have changed with the II model, but on the older
models you would press the Trigger button, the make
sure you were looking at the right trigger and scroll
to the 'specific rejection'page.  You will have to
check both the snare and HH trigger settings.  Beyond
that, you ma need to call Yamaha, unless other's have
better ideas...Walt
