Re: Pads compatible to DTXpress 2

2006-10-18 by geerayman

Okay, I loaded a couple of pictures in a new album called "CY-5 on a 
DTXpress III".  To raise the CY-5 to a more comfortable position, I 
used a Tama T-fitting on the same tube as the snare.  To that I 
mounted an Ultimate Support female/female locking swivel joint.  I 
also had a male/female swivel joint, but by using about 3" of tubing 
on one female side, I was able to raise it higher over the rack's 
snare tube.  On the other end of the swivel joint, set to a 90-degree 
angle, I affixed the Roland L-clamp.

I already had the Tama, USS hardware, and extra tubing from all the 
old A-frame keyboard stands I've had collecting dust in the garage 
over the years.  But if you decide to do it like I did, you should be 
able to find equivalent parts at the local music store.

Be sure to let us know what you think of the CY-5 when you add it!
