The other thing you can do, if you want the same cymbal, and your program allows you to do this is load the same sample to another pad. The problem you're having, I'm guessing, is with retriggering the same sound so that you don't have the overlap. The graph that Evil Dragon shows the swell in velocity. The only thing I'd add is don't make it an angle, some hits are going to be louder than others naturally. The general shape should be an angle, but some of the velocity hits should fall outside the ramp. If you have two pads with two different MIDI numbers hitting the same sample, you'll get the overlap you're looking for.
