Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

no problem dude, also on the hart cymbals (the eII's) walt is a user 
of this group and he has a couple for his kit ,he has a ride,and i 
think he has  the hihats,and he seems to really like them,i've been 
looking at the roland cymbals,and i think that i'm probably going to 
be going for some harts cymbals myself(just going to try to figure 
out how many to start with) i run 2 modules on my kit(walt does too) 
i have 2 dtxpress modules while he runs a dtxpress,and a dtx v 2.0 . 
it's nice to have the extra module ,and it really doesn't take much 
room away from my set-up(but my rack system has grown alot since i 
started) 


later man,
