Re: TP65S vs TP100

Jags,

You will have no problems using the TP100 on the DTXpress - I have been using one for several years.  I use mine on a snare stand, rather than on the rack.  Make sure you buy a stand suitable for such a small snare (often a tom stand may be a better bet), although I manage with a cheap snare stand from Thomann.  The volume control on the TP100 is useful, even if the red knob won't do anything.

You can use the TP65 for a cymbal with no problem.  Again, I did that for a while until I bought some extra cymbals - now it is back to being a tom.  In fact the DTXpress comes with a TP65 as a hi-hat as I recall (I never liked that so have always used a PCY65 for the hi-hat).

Keith.
