Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hey everyone,

I just got my new DTXpress I set from Midwest percussion.  
Initial reactions include,
-I'm very impressed how authentic the snare-kick-cymbals & 
hi-hat sound right out of the box.
-The hi-hat controller seems kinda finnicky; is there supposed to 
be a learning curve to using one compared to an acoustic hi-hat 
pedal?
-The toms, esp. in comparison to the other pads, sound 
alarmingly synthetic (or as I call it, Flock-of-Seagull-ish).  I'm 
hoping that I can tailor the sound closer to that of acoustic toms 
with the module.....please tell me I can?!??!  My playing falls 
along the lines of rock/hard blues.
-I'm VERY impressed with triggering accuracy on the rubber 
pads.  I tried a Roland woven mesh kit at my local Guitar Center, 
and both the feel & triggering were horrible (for my taste, 
anyhow).  I assume the triggering on those could be adjusted 
through the module, but the feel will remain the same.  I guess 
it's a personal taste issue, but I fail to see the appeal of the 
woven heads.

Anyway, hope to tap you all for some help while going through 
the growing pains of learning the ins & outs of the system.

Peace,

Randall
