DM8 Pro Kit: Cymbal Choke???

[bobbav]

Hi Everyone - I believe I have my DM8 Prokit cymbals connected properly, but cannot get them to choke. Any ideas?

Have you tried to squeeze the choke strips? They need to be grabbed pretty tight for the cymbals to be choked.

ya me too, just got mine and had a bitc_ of a time getting the bell on the ride to work but can't get the choke on the crash at all, I've read the manual from cover to cover a few times

Make sure you guys have the right cymbal trigger for the crash cymbal. I know on the DM10 studio kit some people don't have the right cymbal triggers plugged in to the correct input. Just a thought. I hope that helps.

Got it working... Had to switch the Crash cable into the other jack on the cymbal. The cymbal came with a plug in one of the jacks and I assumed the crash cable on the cable snake went into the free jack on the cymbal.
IT DOESN'T switch the jacks around on the cymbal and voila!!!

On the Cymbal A Jack has the plug, B Jack plug in the Crash cable from the cable snake.
