Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

I have the dtxpress2 kit , and i have noticed that the 9/10 trigger 
input does not separate the 2, i have a stereo splitter, going to 2 
mono cables to my tc14 pintech series cymbals, yet when hit , both 
trigger the channel 9 sound, and sometimes when i hit a bit harder , 
on either pad, they occasionally hit the 10 sound.  what am i doin 
wrong!!! driving me nutz... ive tried using all stereo cables as well 
and get the same effect. also after about 2 weeks of using the 
upright bass drum pad... it started wearing thin... i am a double 
bass player, and to have that happen so quickly is not good , ...so i 
fixed the prob by adding a peice of mouse pad to the beater surface, 
i just laid the trigger down on the pad traced out the circle and 
glued it on... voila! a very durable surface with very little change 
in sound... and last but not least ... i am looking for a snare drum 
setting ... simialr to the "crack" snare on the v-drum module. could 
anyone help me with the settings or close to , if you know which 
snare im talking about :) ty... happy drummin'.....

There are two differnet types of 'splitters' around. The first, which 
is a true stereo splitter, will generally have a red plug and a black 
black plug. One plug sends the signal being transmitted to the jack's 
ring, the other sends a signal to the jack's tip. On trigger 9/10 the 
tip will initiate the 9 trigger and the ring will activate the 10 
trigger.

The other 'splitter' that's available is not a splitter at all. It's 
simply a "Y" cable that will join signals from two sources into a 
single trigger port. They are generally all black.

Are you using the correct 'splitter'? I sound like you may be using 
a "Y" cable.

The "Y" cable that is needed is also referred to as an "Insert Cable".
