Re: [DTXpress] Re: MidiKITI Programming Help...ED...HELP!!

2003-02-18 by jadeiebooshkie

I checked every note for the entire kit, and 113 is
NOT assigned to anything..the other pad connected to
the 9/10 is the cymbal bell pad-that's on 10, and my
other tom was on 9-that's the one reassigned to the
cymbal that should read note 106-not 113.  But it's
funny, my tom is now on the cymbal.  I wonder if there
is a problem with the KITI?
