The snare sound changes for no apparent reason. In the middle of playing, it loses the snare sound and the only way to get it back is to change kits and then to go back to the desired kit again or else I have to turn it off and then back on again. I have tried to restore the original factory settings, but it does not fix the problem. I need to understand if this is a problem with the brain, or whether it is a problem with the snare drum. Any suggestion on what needs to be done to fix this problem?
Check your snare and the red knob next to it, if you turn this knob it will turn off the snare, it could even have a short or etc.
SOURCE: add more paths to the drum kit
A line splitter I would asume. Some people just by two brains or more and make a really huge set. I would recomend just buying to brains, alot easyer and more options to chose from.

Here is a link to the manual if you don't have one:http://www.dtxperience.com/documents/Manuals/DTXPRESS_IV/DTXPRESS_IV_Owners_Manual.pdf The procedure is on page 35.
SOURCE: um i lose power completely
Check the condition of the inout power jack and the soldering of it. Also look for cracks in the circuit board around the jack. These jacks are marginal and are often intermittent.

Actually, ONLY TWO pins are used in the MIDI cable. The data is sent serially at a 31.25KBit rate.
You probably need to "map" the ones that aren't working into the appropriate codes to trigger the SR-18 sounds.
You need to COMPARE the codes sent from the DTX to those needed by the SR-18.
There also may be options in the DTX for type of drum kit such as "Latin" and selecting one of those may have the mapping already done.
In the literature of each device will be a list of the MIDI codes the DTX generates and those required by the SR-18.
essentially the percussion codes are NOT standardized completely between devices... but there is usually a way to "map" them to make it work.

you need to determine what midi note the DTXplorer is using for the snare, kick and 3rd tom, and set the SR-18 accordingly, or vica-versa. the midi notes for each instrument has to be the same.
if you cannot change the midi note in either unit to make them correspond, you can download a "midi mapper" program (i think e-drum might be one), there is freeware available if you search CNet. with a midi mapper program, you would have to get a midi/usb adapter for your computer and rouite the midi signal through a computer. midi mapping software allows you to change the midi note, when the hardware itself is incapable of doing so.
