Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Creighton and Grumpy Stewart:
Ed's memory is too good. He's right in thinking that I originally had 
problems with my Zenbals. However, I believe that it was ME that had 
the problem and not the equipment. When I purchased my Zenbals, I had 
only been into e-drumming for a few months. My experience with 
trigger settings, etc. for the Zenbals was my first. 

My only problem with the equipment was a rim trigger that stopped 
working after a few months. The offending equipment was returned to 
Pintech and replaced.

The cymbals definitely have a 'sweet spot' on both the bow and edge. 
The closer to the trigger you hit them,the more livelier they are. 
The bow has a wider live area than does the edge.

Having also used the Yamaha cymbals, the Hart E-cymbal and the Roland 
CY-6, the Pintech Zenbals are my weapon of choice.

I'm at work right now so I don't have my exact settings. However, I 
believe the pad type I used for them is Misc 2 and the voice is set 
at Loud 2. The gain is probably in the 90%-95% range and the Minimum 
Velocity somewhere in the 15%-20% range.
