Bongo,

No dedicated setting for making the rim switch more responsive, but 
I'm not sure that the problem  is in the design per se. Have you 
tried another stereo cable? Nine times out of ten, poor response can 
be attributed to a damaged cable. Just to be thorough about the 
possibilities, have you tried that pad in another input?  In the 
unlikely event that you've definitely located the pad as the problem, 
you may have a bad ribbon on the rim. It happens from time to time, 
but rarely on a new pad.
