Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

yeah i would say that the pintech ergo's are worth getting,i had a 
set of 2 of them for my kit before i upgraded to the pintech vk-
10's,they respond really well with a single pedal for each one ,or 
you can use a double pedal on just one ergokik trigger,plus as a 
bonus the newer version of the ergokik triggers (the k3)has dual 
inputs on it so like the roland kd7's you can link both of the kick 
triggers together using a patch cable,and then only occupy one input 
on your module. the inverted beater set-up is a little strange at 
first ,but after about 10 minutes or so you really don't notice the 
oddness of it,and as you can tell from the size they are very compact 
so it won't require a whole lot of space for it on your e-kit set-
up.. just a personal note if you're looking for different price 
options on kick triggers you may wnat to check out ed's site as well 
at www.drumbalaya.com (note this is not spaming,he just has some 
really good deals on there ,and i know people who have dealt with him 
allready,and have been very pleased with the outcome of the deal)

hope this helps,

buy a good one before we go on tour.. I got it, and I was extremely 
pleased. It had a good feel to it, it was fairly quiet for those 
headphone players, and was very sensitive to velocity. Had a nice 
bounce to it as well. I am extremely pleased with that little egokik. 
The beater is really ugly and made of wood, but you'll get used to it.
