So kick goes to input 1 and hi hat to input 8/controller, right? I 
don't suppose you're using a double pedal that might cause your foot 
to stir the second pedal? Let's try an experiment. Go into the 
trigger parameters for the kick pedal and raise specific rejection of 
the hi hat input temporarily to 8. Your kick won't register anything 
but the hardest hits. Now continue to stomp on your hi hat for as 
long as you would think it should take for a false trigger of the 
kick to appear. If the kick stays mute, then you'll have to find some 
setting less than 8 that stops the crosstalk while also allowing you 
some dynamics on the kick. If the crosstalk still happens, then 
something is amiss internally. Frankly, I'm skeptical of the 
crosstalk angle because using the hi hat controller wouldn't seem to 
create much havoc physically under any conditions.
