It might seem oblivious but check your sample start trimming in the sample page. If you just loaded your samples in from the 1000 kits it may make a difference in the sample start.

Plus secondly the 4k defaults at startup with a 5ms set on the amp envelope attack in the program edit 1 page. Still might cause your claps attack to be shaved off given a seeming delay in the timing. Go to programs>edit 1>Attack under Amp Env and set to zero. Go to Program Matrix and also change velocity from Tilt velocity to nothing as source you don`t need it unless you are layering programs you want to crossfade between. Make sure you don`t have velocity>sample start or velocity>attack Amp Env with any settings also. That is all I can think of at the moment so I hope it helps.

P.S. it could be YOU too. Get your timing right and take your time it will come soon. Peace.
