Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi UNH,

One thing that has been very clear over the years is that some people 
prefer Yamaha's sounds, while other's prefer Rolands.  I don't think 
there is one right answer - both have their good and bad attributes.  

Hart, being a copmany that does not make modules, has incorporated 
something in their trigger designs that seems to cause triggering 
issues with Yamaha modules.  There is another vendor that heard their 
products were having problems working properly with Yamaha modules, 
and they choose to work with Yamaha users to correct the issues.  
Hart (as far as I know) has taken a different approach, which seems 
to be that they do not think the Yamaha market is where they want to 
focus their efforts.  Given that, would you expect their web site to 
endorse Yamaha products very highly?
