Hi GT,

We've dealt with this problem on the board since the DTXpress II came 
out. It is manifested in a specific-rejection between the snare and 
the hi hat (I forget which one's; it's all over the board) being set 
too high. I'm glad to hear about the new ROM chip, but members have 
been able to rectify the problem by reducing the appropriate spec. 
rej. number; it simply shipped at too a setting so far as snare and 
hi hat were concerned. No complaints have been forthcoming from 
anyone who performed the requisite adjustment.
