Thank you. That is great info. So it is the hardware, not the
brain that I need to be concerned with. I will check it all out. Now I know,
thanks again.

Ken,
Do your cymbal pads (I assume you have PCY80 series, as oppose to the
PCY60 series) a small "S" on the raised rim? The "S" should be at the
center of the raised area of the rim.
In order for choking to work, you need to use a PCY80S or a PCY65S.
The PCY60, PCY80 and the PCY65 are single zone pads and cannot be
choked. The choking feature is a part of the rim switch feature that
is only available on the PCY80S and the PCY65S.
IF you have a stereo cymbal pad, then you will need to set the
trigger type to a "PCY Crash" pad. Then go to the voice settings for
that pad and assign a voice for both the pad and for the rim. So if
it is plugged into input no. 7, you must set Trig In= 7 voices for
both the pad and the rim. You must also remember to use a stereo
(Tip/Ring/Sleeve) cable between the pad and the module. Using a mono
(Tip/Sleeve) cable with a only give you the pad sound and no choking
even if you have everything else setup correctly.
The original Dtxpress I came with two cymbal pads a PCY60 and a
PCY80S, only the PCY80S can be choked.
