Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

OK so i got up this morning refreshed but with a tummy ache and 
decided to check up on my ride cymbal.  Apparently if I hit the ride 
part of the pad softly I'll always get the ride sound.  But if I hit 
it a little harder, it crashes like the edge of the rim is 
programmed to.  When I hit the edge of the pad I get that choked 
cymbal sound.  I assigned only one sound to the pad, like just the 
ride sound for example, and it works fine.  Is it possible that 
maybe that sensitivity button got messed around with or something in 
the back?  I really hope I'm not hitting these things too hard.  
Last night I broke the tip of my drumstick but I think its when I 
hit the rack.  This morning I woke up and my hands have all these 
little red spots on them.  Guess its time for some gloves and some 
more pizza!  Dr. Ed help me!
