Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

is the DIP the thing you had me change on the back of the module with a screwdriver, because even though its still set up, i didn't notice any difference at all and i had my headphones on and did a before and after stroke.  i still have not changed the trigger inputs to reflect the pintech because it is complicated and for some reason everytime i  change one, i change them all.  you had advised me to save on d10/20, but i read thats for acoustic drum triggers.  this pintech is obnoxious and ed at drumbalaya is gonna make me an offer on a trade it, or there is a pd-80 on ebay for 98 bucks in a couple of hours

The Roland meshes have foam columns; Roland was the first major 
company to use them. Pintechs began as Roland-compatibles. They are 
made in Rolands' image, and Pintech pays Roland a licensing fee to 
make its own woven heads for use with a center-mounted, foam-based 
piezo. Even though most mesh pads are in the Roland style, they do not 
all trigger the same way. Most of the modules on the market have 
enough sensitivity control to handle whatever users throw at them. 
Although Yamaha modules are a little sensitivity-challenged with other 
companies' pads, they can accommodate many of the simple ones fairly 
well. But certain piezo placements in other companies' components 
don't allow enough signal on Yamaha's terms, a few of them 
incorrigibly. The Pintechs require flipping the DIP switch to boost 
the signal, but unfortunately past the middle ground. Hence, the pot. 
It's entirely possible that the Yamaha module will be more forgiving a 
Roland mesh head (though probably not the rim), but IMO the price is 
prohibitive.
