Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

ridiculously hot.  it really doesn't pick up the softer hits as anything diferent.  i was doing paradiddles and the accent on the first sounded the same.  also, there a weird foam column in the middle that props up the mesh and i don't like it and im not sure if it was just for shipping or something but i doubt it.  i think ill get one of those things you said that goes bw the input and the pad the quiet down the lower ones.

Frank,

The original cable will work fine. You'll need to set another pad 
type in the Trigger Menu--as memory serves either DT10/20 or RHP 
snare. Find the "Input Attenuation" (badly named) DIPs on the back of 
the module between the MIDI in/out jacks and the top row of input 
jacks. Flip the one corresponding to input 2 to the "H" position, to 
increase the mesh's signal. You'll need a pin or a small screwdriver 
unless your fingernail can do the trick. Feel free to experiment with 
other trigger settings yourself, but don't get carried away.  If you 
stray too far and can't get back, you'll have to do a factory reset 
and lose your user kits. (You can save your data beforehand to your 
PC via DTXchange if you're so inclined). As I said, you may find that 
the Pintech runs very hot through the module.
