Ed,
I had the manual sitting on my snare...going thru it
page by page (there is SO MUCH info in the Kat manual,
ya can't remember it all!!)  I haven't even got the
chance to read the the stapled paged booklet for the
updated midi kiti pro.  I also re-attached my other
midi cable, and sent the note thru the DTX.
Also...were you aware that the Kat has a lithium
battery in it? 
I have a family function to go to myself tonight, but
am gonna play drums until I have to leave.  Thanks for
your wisdom and encouragement.
One more thing...I STILL don't have the BELL of the
Visulite hooked up-still waiting for the Hosa 117, so
I said the heck with waiting-I ordered one today from
Drumbalaya, when the other comes in I can use that for
my 9/10 outlets...right now I have 1/8 in going into a
1/4 inch adapter, and I don't like that, anyway, you
can never have enough cords. :D
Thanks Ed!
Jade
