Keith, 
thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried that. Maybe I just have
to step on the pedal a little harder....or buy a real rhh130. Anyway,
the pcy3 settings makes things worse, it's never closing with that.
All the misc settings force me to set my hi-hat offset to 32, and then
I still get a lot of "open" hi-hat where I don't want them.
