Hi Peeps, I'm a newbie here, so please go easy on me ;-) I'm not sure if this is the correct news group to post my problem, so if I'm in the wrong news group, I would appreciate it if you could tell me what news group I should be posting. I've been playing for 40 years and just recently purchased a set of electronic drums, mainly to allow me play without disturbing my family and neighbors. Thus far, I'm very happy and impressed with the overall sound, sensitivity, feel, and flexibility this instrument offers. Seems electronic drums have come a long way. Though I still wouldn't consider applying traditional brush playing to this type of instrument. J The problem I am having is a triggering problem between the "drum" pads and "cymbal" pads. Mainly it's between the ride and high hat pads, though sometimes the crash pad doesn't trigger correctly either. The problem occurs when I strike the "drum" pad and the "cymbal" pad at the same time. Usually the "drum" pad will trigger but not the "cymbal" pad, it will trigger every other time (stirke). What causes this problem and how can I resolve the conflict of the cymbal triggering every other time when I strike both the "drum" pad and cymbal" pad simultaneously? If it helps, I'm using a Roland TD-12 module with Hart Dynamics Basic Studio kit pads. Thanks in advance, Rob

Here's one possibility. Roland TDs have a "crosstalk" parameter per pad that might be cranked up too much. The purpose of the crosstalk control, is to help prevent false triggering, where you hit say a tom pad real hard and it makes a cymbal play real faint too. If it's cranked up too much, it could see a legitimate hit as being a false trigger, and cancel it. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ ____ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / __ )____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ / __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_____/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms
