Thank &Deity someone else gets it too. I was beginning to think my 
marbles were rolling away down the drive at a speed too fast to 
catch...

I only twigged when I listened to the gig I did again. The guy whose 
kit I sat in on has a Sabian HH ride, with lots of wash and overtone 
that seemed to be drowning out the "ping" - I felt I was having a 
deal of difficulty controlling it. But when I listened to the gig 
again, only the subtlest of tones was apparent and the "ping" was 
clear. A little light went on...

There's still much room for improvement, of course. Even bearing 
that in mind, the sounds are very - how can I put this? - "two-
dimensional" if you see what I mean.

Ed, you're a ddrum man... how does this theory stack up against the 
sounds in your module?
