Hey fiend,

This hh/snare interaction problem on the DTXII seems to be real a 
nuisance. The fact that no one's complaining about the hh triggering 
the snare anymore seems to indicate that Walt's advice about 
specific rejection was heeded. I'm curious: Have you made any 
special adjustments to your hh and/or snare inputs via the trigger 
menu? The reason I ask is that it seems like some sort of level 
balance between the hh and snare--whether inherent or made by you--
is getting interrupted when you move to a ride cymbal, and sometimes 
when you return to the hh, it kicks in late. I can't think of any 
user functions offhand that would result in that happening, but 
trial and error in the trigger menu may eliminate it. It certainly 
would help to know if anyone else is experiencing it. What is your 
specific rejection of 8 from 2?  Remember, if it's too high, then 
the snare might not sound when you hit the hh at the same time. It 
doesn't thereby follow that if you set it lower, the snare will 
blast during or after a hh hit. Strange things do happen though. I 
had a Pintech stereo cymbal that would not work correctly in one of 
my kits unless I set the pad type to "PCY cup." Explain that!
