Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

I don't have any answers for you but I can say that the headphone/click
thing peeves me a little. It wouldn't have cost any extra to put an on/off
switch in there that shut off the click to the stereo outs and just kept it
in the headphones. I was wanting to record to a click. Now I'll have to
MIDI in to the computer, then rerecord to wav (which might be smarter
anyway) but that feature is common and wouldn't have raised the price at all.

Another thing I wanted to bring up is this. Has anyone noticed a
high-pitched squeeling noise comingfrom the module? It's coming from mine.
It's not real obvious unless you have the volume up very loud through an
externalamp. It changes pitch as I push up and down on the hihat
controller. If anyone else notices this, please let me know.

Giles and I have uploaded some patches to the web sight at onelist. I'm
interested in comments on them and hope that some more of you put your
patches up.
