Problems with a DTXPRESS which I just bought

2004-01-16 by joerg_b52

Dear all,

I just bought a used DTXPRESS, but still with warranty on it, without 
a user manual...

Basically, I do have 2 questions:

1.)  I do not get any rim sounds out of the pads, is that normal?  Is 
this not a function of the DTXPRESS?  It came with TP60 pads.  Do 
they not have this "2-zone"-functionality?

2.)  My hihat pedal does not seem to work at all.  The hihat pad just 
produces an open sound,  once I connect the hihat control cable at 
the sound module (without connecting it to the pedal),  the sound 
switches to a closed hihat.  This does not change when I then connect 
the cable to the pedal...  The cable itself is not the problem, I 
tried it with various others...

My first thought was that somebody had messed up the configuration,  
so I used the utility section of the sound module to set it back to 
the factory defaults,  but it still does not work...

So,  am I just too stupid or this is a warranty case?  Again, I have 
no user manual where I could possibly get more documentation on 
this...


I appreciate any help and comments on this.


Thanks and regards,

Joerg Brandt
