Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

One of the problems was that MIDI Channel on the KITI
was set to 1!!!  I called Mario at AM, he ran me thru
a few things, but needed to see a manuel before we
could get anywhere.  He is supposed to call me Wed or
Thurs.  I have to be out of town on Wed. for most of
the day, so I will get a chance to re-read the KITI
manuel...Mario thinks it needs to be totally
retrained, probably settings from who ever had it are
over riding what I am trying to do.  However, i will
try what you told me.  The tom noise I am hearing IS
coming from my 2nd tom...AND V=2 note is 102...funny
how it's flashing 103!
Will keep ya posted, and Thanks, buddy for all your
help!
