G'day people on the internet,

I understand why the Tom rim triggers the cymbals, but is there a way to turn that "Feature" off or lessen it ?

I've looked in the manual and I can't find an answer.

Thanks for reading.

Raise the crosstalk setting on the cymbal that is getting triggered and if necessary change the threshold of that cymbal to a lower number.
I could tell you where to stick that piezo! :D ;)

Thanks for the response.

I've got the threshold down to -36 on each cymbal and the crosstalk to high. Even with these settings if I rim click the tom the cymbal is louder than the tom sample.

Hardware isolation is the other direction to take. In the past one thing I have done is use rubber between rack clamps and rack tubing (not with 2Box, but on Gibraltar hardware), and rubber at spots like where the cymbal arm clamps to the rack clamp. It is just a test as you go type of thing. Obviously you are attempting to cut down the vibration between the tom and the cymbal, so vibration dampening on the hardware, both tom and cymbal will help.

i had it. you have to reduce the thresholdon whats faulty trigerring and also put to max the xtalk to everything including rims. just do it and no ore crosstalk.
