Hi Stephane,

Isn't it fun to try to get your kit set up right?  

First, if ghost notes are working OK when you play
only the snare, that that tells us you should have
enough sensitivity to pick up those easy hits.  This
may not mean that you may not need to raise the
sensitivity later, but for now leave it where you have
it.  If ghost notes are not working properly when you
play only the snare, then you may want to increase the
gain in the trigger settings until ghost notes do
work.

The next thing to look at, now that the ghost notes
are not working when you hit other pads, should be the
rejection parameter (not self rej or specific rej)-
which is the only rejection parameter that impacts the
playing of all other pads.  Yesterday, when the
problem was only when you played the HH, we only
looked at specificific rejection.

I would change the Rej parameter in the snare trigger
settings to 0, then try playing ghost notes and other
pads to see if they work.  If they do, then I would
play hard on the other pads to see if the snare
triggers from the other pads vibrations.  If it does,
then I would increase the value of the rejection by 1,
and try again.  

Do not feel alone, I have been fighting trigger
problems all week too.
