Re: [DTXpress] Re: Input 9/10?

2002-05-16 by sboehmer

Let me clarify ... I have a PCY80s plugged into the input 7 or whatever the
crash input number is. What I am trying to do is use the cymbal pads that
came with the kit and have two seperate voices/sounds from the pads.

The PCY80s works great with no real extra configuration on my part.

It is good to be in like company!

Here is another question while every one is being so helpful: What do you
all think of the TP80s dual zone pad? I played one at the music store and it
seemed to me the rim trigger was at the 12:00 position on the pad and hard
to hit for rim shots ect ...

Is there a better dual zone pad?
