Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi
Ok I closed the poll on this as it seems everyone who was gonna contribute has done so... 
AND I found a solution that worked... 

My solution  was to replace most of the dd-502 pads with pintech pads. I guess this just 
goes to show that you get what you pay for! or less!! lol

I got a pintech set of kick pad, double trigger 10" snare and 3 10" tom's on ebay, and went 
to hope drums to get a video on setting the dtxiii triggers for pintech and used those 
settings on my dtx1.  It works beautifully now!!! There is no missing... none! Not even 
when I hit snare, tom and kick at the same time(a sure way to get it to miss the kick with 
the old kick pads!)

The mesh heads are quiet and feel so much nicer than the plastic pads. Just like a real 
drum! I'm Totally impressed!  My pintech cymbals are also working great since I got the 
hope drums settings for them too!

now I need a 14" snare and I'll be happy for a while (and a snare stand) lol

btw the poll didn't show much. 21% have not had problems with it...9% did have problems. 
15% had the dtx1 6% dtxii and 9%dtxiii  and 0%  had the dtxiv
the one person with the pintech was me! and I no longer have the problem! Yippie!
18% have the kp65 kick pad... 
So my conclusion is that trigger settings can help if it's a kp65 or 60, changing to a dtxiv 
could help, changing to a better kick pad! (pintech) is the most costly(other than changing 
the controller to dtxiv), but will definately correct the problem and give the most 
satisfaction! lol I am really glad I changed most of the pads!

anyway have a look at the result to get more out of it!
