Stewart,

Right. The voice triggered by the rim switch has all of the same 
qualities of the primary voice. The problem is not that no control 
is possible, only that no separate control is possible. For 
instance, you may not want the rim crash to have the same voice and 
triggering characteristics as your light ride, but nothing can be 
done about it, short of buying another cymbal.
