Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi Ed ad thanks for your reply,

Ah, so I'll have to do some experimentation for the chokes. The only 
real reason I need dual trigger inputs is because in the DTXpress I 
kit's there are well, limited trigger inputs! I 'think' the Alesis 
DM Pro has 16 trigger inputs? I also have all my old single trigger 
pads to connect that are laying around. 
Though you say mono INPUTS...Not confirmed is IF the DM Pro infact 
has mono or stereo 'samples' or not?

Thank again, Steve
