Re: accented note on snare don't work while i hit another pad !

2002-11-22 by dopmi

Hi Walt , the problem was Specific Rej , when you are too much into 
something you don't do it well sometime , when you talked to me about 
specific rejec in my mind it was on the same "page" as Rej and and 
Self Rej , then when you ask me to tell you for level of specific 
reject i see that i didn't yet change that level , i set it to 0 and 
now all work fine .
Thank You ;-))
