Hi Jaymz,

I guess you don't have a manual, since it contains a complete list of 
sounds and factory kits. I think we have a link to the Yamaha site 
where you can download it. As for the case of the choking cymbal, 
it's good to hear that you seem to have solved it--at least for now--
but if the cymbal is one of the affortable Pintech TC series, it may 
happen again. Vibrations from extraneous sources are more likely to 
cause e-drums/cymbals to trigger than to choke; the TCs have been 
known to choke themselves. It's a good idea to keep the bass player 
and his amp away from your riser. By the way, welcome.
