Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Thanks Tom!   
   It's really hard for me to say how much I want to spend.  Since I 
don't know the equipment I'll need and their associated prices.  I'd 
like to get some equipment that would be good enough to lay demo's 
down.  I'm not looking to build the next great recording studio.  I 
would just something better than the low end, but not too expensive, 
somewhere in the middle.
From reading your email, the main components are the (correct me if 
I'm wrong):  The sequencer (software?), the soundcard and the midi 
interface?  I've got all the outboard gear I'll probably need: 
microphones, bass, guitar, oh and the DTXPRESS (don't wanna forget 
that! :) )  Hope I gave you some more info to work with.  Thanks a 
bunch!!
