Crosstalk

Crosstalk

2005-09-16 by rhys_nataly

Firstly I want to say hello :). I have just recently purchased the 
DTXpress, second hand, great kit. I have joined this group because it 
looks very helpful and you all seem a happy bunch :).
Any way my problem:
At first all was well then (unless I didn't notice at the start) major 
crosstalk(CT), when I hit the snare or crash(crash Triggers 
occasionally and sometimes quietly also) they have CT with tom 1, I 
changed the settings in Specific Rej and Self rej etc none of this 
worked. Good plan, I moved the snare off the same rack as the tom 1 
(the short one pointing up) and put it on the cross rack by its self 
no more CT AT ALL hooray. Now the crash, I moved this to the rack with 
the brain, it still has CT and triggers occasionally etc, I thought it 
may be broken??? I have now swapped it (completly) with the ride (to 
check if it is broken), NOW this is strange, it still does not trigger 
all the time etc(must be broken I'm thingking) but the most amazing 
thing is it still has CT with tom 1??? WHY??? If the original ride did 
not have CT with anything then settings must be right and all should 
be ok??. what am I missing. is the information (settings) processed at 
the trigger or at the brain?? :(

Since no-one has answered, I thought I'd just say hi, otherwise we'll
rapidly lose our reputation of being a happy bunch.

Personally, I've not actually played with the rejection settings, I
got rid of all my crosstalk problems (I only got crosstalk when I
re-arranged the pads away from the recommended Yamaha setup) by
re-siting the pads so hitting one didn't vibrate another.

Another possibility is the .. ummm, what's it called .. oh yes, the
Trigger Setup. I'm currently using DT10/20 while I'm waiting for a new
bass drum pedal. See p12 of the owner's manual.

Good luck
