Hello! I recently purchased a Strike kit to replace an aging Roland V-SESSON set. I'm enjoying it, but I'm having two main problems I haven't been able to address that I'm hoping have fast answers.
1. The hi-hat rotates. Other cymbals have a little piece that stops them from spinning, but the hi-hat doesn't. As I play, it rotates around until it can't anymore due to the cable, which often times means it's facing the wrong way.
2. Double/triple/etc triggering on kick drum. I've loosened the drum head and it helped a trivial amount but not enough. I've tried adjusting the Sensitivity, Retrigger, and Threshold numbers, but even though they go from 0-99, they don't seem to do anything except at the 30 and 60 mark, at which time there's a drastic difference (which usually means no sound at all unless I kick the hell out of it). I can't for the life of me identify more than three actual settings for those values. Changing the curve makes a huge difference, but anything other than Linear just boosts the ghost hits so loud that it sounds like everything is double bass.
I'm not new to electronic drums by any means, but this is just giving me a hell of a time. Retrigger at less than 60 doesn't seem to do anything, and anything higher than 60 means it'll only trigger as fast as 3-4 beats per second, which also won't work.
Is this unusual? Anyone have any settings they can share?
