Walt:
I take it the Hart 2-ply heads provide more firmness. That may be 
just the ticket. I really only feel that I need that for the snare, 
so I'll order one and give it a try.

As to splitting the cable for the snare goes, I'm really out of 
inputs. I have set up two different sets of kits. One with the snare 
running through the 9/10, which leaves me one input for my barpad 
(albeit with only soundsource), and the other with the snare going to 
the number 2 trigger and the barpad in 9/10. This leaves me without a 
rimshot, but I've layered the snare to have a rimshot with an Xfade 
of 9. Neither is the best scenario. Ed (liberatusvirus) suggests that 
I may have to join Jade in the MidiKiti world.

Or I could just forget about the bar pad and use REAL cowbells, 
tambourines, etc.
