Re: [DTXpress] Digest Number 1485

2005-01-03 by RANDALL FRAKER

Yes it was. Right out of the box, no problems. Now, I have not to this point not really messed with any settings because I have not had the need. There is a volume pot on the side that I did adjust. The red knob on the top does not work properly with this module as has been discussed on this forum. I'd go for it.

Hi Randy

Glad to hear that the upgrade work OK. I too have thought about this upgrade but was told by my local shop that the pad didn't work as a straight plug in on the XpII. Was this the case ?

Hi folks,

I have been contemplating an upgrade of the snare on my DTXpressII
kit. My wife found out and was trying to "help" me out with a new
snare for Christmas. She purchased a 14" Pintech with a mesh head.
Nice drum, but way too big for the set. (You're right Ed) I also
found the action to be so different from the other pads, it was
difficult to play. I decided to return the pintech and purchase a
TP100 from Drumbalaya. This is the pad Yamaha uses for the toms on
the DTXtremeIIS. Wow what a nice upgrade! The size fits the set
well, and the action is great. You know how when trying to "slide"
around the pads with the standard pads, the rubber has a tendency to
grab the stick out of your hand? Well, not with the TP100. This pad
feels and plays much more like a acoustic. I think the meshes are OK
when grouped together in a set, but these new TP100 and TP120 pads
are great with the DTXpress sets.

My 2 cents,
Happy New Year
Randy
