How can I increase the sustain on the crash cymbals. After they are 
hit I would like to have the sound of the cymbal sustain for at least 
6 seconds. At present it seems to sustain for only 2 seconds. I am 
playing a DTXpress II kit. Look forward to a reply. 
 
Hi webc1958, 

Nice to have you with us. Go to the decay page in the voice menu for 
the input in question. You'll want the setting to be less than 0. It 
seems counterintuitive, but to get more delay you have to press the 
minus key on the module's front panel until the duration is 
satisfactory. But remember, the module's onboard decay isn't as 
refined as that of a good outboard effects processor.
