How to adjust sensitivity of Guitar Hero drum pads?

[ Edited ]

Is there  any way to adjust the sensitivity of the wii drums, in particular the cymbols?

 

The yellow cymbol, and occasionally the orange one, will activate when hitting the drum pads.

 

I have the cable and software for the original Guitar Hero drum kit,  Edit:  Tried using the calibration utility for the original drum kit, and, as I suspected, it doesn't seem to do anything on these.

 

How can the drums be calibrated?

 

I saw a post in the XB360 indicating the drums somehow "autocalibrate" themselves.  Is there some way to disable this and calibrate them manually?

No. If the drums are self-actuating, then something has failed in the pad themselves.

I also have the same question.  I just got the drum set today.  The drums, and especially the bass pedal, are not sensitive enough.  I have to hit the pedal very hard for it to register in game; and the same pedal works just fine when plugged into the stock drum set.

It turns out that the one pedal that comes with this set works much better than the two pedals I used with the stock Guitar Hero set.  (All three pedals work just fine when used with the stock set).  That being said, the entire set is still not sensitive enough; it would be nice if there were an application we could use to adjust the sensitivity, like there was with the stock drum set.

 

I used to think Logitech was a respectable company, but they've dropped the ball with this product, so I'm not so sure how I feel about them anymore.
