Re: Inputs and accessories

The Yamaha bar pad has two FSRs that access inputs 9/10 through a 
single stereo cable or any other two inputs via a splitter. The 
cymbal bell trigger is a single piezo, requiring a single input of 
its own. Out of the box, the DTXpress module cannot accommodate both 
the bar pad and the bell without help from the outside, unless the 
the bar pad shares input 9 and 10 with the bell via a splitter, 
thereby turning the bar into a single-zone trigger.
