Steve, can the drum pad audio receive and send MIDI?
If so record your playing as MIDI. There are a number of ways to even out velocity in Studio One Pro. Then send the modified MIDI back into your drum pad and record the audio from it.

Another option would work if your quietest cymbal volume is loud enough. That would be to us a limiter on it. That would lower the loudest only sounds.
