Check to make sure you don't have the X fade set wrong.  X fade can
allow you to have a more realistic sounding snare by having the
trigger produce one sound if it's hit lightly, and a different sound
if it's hit harder.  Depending on the setting of X fade, the blend of
the two is different.  You must have two voices running on the snare
for this to work and X fade must be turned on.
