Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi Draker,

I'm surprised that no one has jumped in and given you trial HH 
settings. In the utility menu, try an offset of -32 or so and a T of 
0-10. See if that gets you in the ballpark for shoops. By the way, 
the HH will never react just like your acoustic (unless you get the 
Visu-lite--sorry for yet another plug), but it should eventually 
satisfy.
