I replaced a roland cymbal pad with a yamaha dtxpressIII cymbal pad 
and all worked fine.  My understanding is the trigger within the pads 
all have one thing in common.  That is to pick up vibrations through 
the use of transducers.  So in essence you can use any triggered pad 
and it will work on any electronic drum set.  Dual triggers work 
also.  The main difference is in the moduals which of course produce 
different drum sounds.  I would suggest getting your pad if it's a 
good deal.
