Edrum (TD20) & Cymbal Swells

I have midi midi notes set to:
Crash A – 49 (C#3) both head and rim
Crash B – 57 (A3) both head and rim

When I hit the cymbal each time when attempting the swell, it sounds like a crash-hit, not a swell.
Are my settings wrong?

Thank you!

You need to start with very soft midi velocities and build up to the final crash
Toonttracks samples the whole range so when you trigger a soft velocity it will be a crash but a lot darker and softer and it will build through the velocity range to the full hit of the crash in dynamics and tone.

Actually, I figured it out. I turned the dial up on the Multiple Hit Emulator.
Thanks, though.

From the Manual:
Multiple Hits Emulation (MHE)
MHE stands for Multiple Hits Emulation and ensures that the attack of the stick is appropriately blended in when repeatedly hitting a cymbal. MHE is not only a smart feature, it is also configurable and flexible, offering results you thought were impossible to achieve. Best of all, it can used on any instrument, for those creative moments, or pesky buzz rolls you may have struggled with before.
