Yoav,

Just a thought: input 9/10 seems to be less responsive than inputs 1-
6, which can be further adjusted with the DIP sensitivity switches in 
the back of the module, which are tailor-made for the DT setting. I 
remember having Pintech meshes that didn't trigger well through 9/10 
but worked much better with the DT snare setting in one of the first 
6. I don't know if you tried to set rejection parameters to deal with 
the problem. They might help, but if you have to set them too high, 
they will defeat your purpose. You might also reduce the gain and 
raise the minimum velocity of whichever trigger is misbehaving. I 
seem to recall that Stephen had trouble with crosstalk between the 
rim and head, though I may be wrong. The mesh set to DT snare at  
high sensitivity might be a better bet in the end.
