Re: [DTXpress] Re: make rim separate trigger then pad

2002-11-17 by Walt

On a more serious note I have found the rim triggers
on the RHP pads to be MUCH nicer than the stereo rims.
 The main pad and rim triggers have individual
sensitivity controls, which allow more fine tuning. I
don't have a lot of miles on them yet, but so far, so
good!  Food for thought...Walt
