hi dude,

i have same problem.
i had the old DTXpress set. i cannot play my double
pedal on it... made me very sad. i called yamaha,
they said the new pedal is not compatible with the
old module... so i just wondering to replace the 
kick pad with a acoustic one and trigger it...
but have to buy acoustic bass drum and mesh head and 
trigger.... so i just waiting... see if can come 
out with better idea.... 

the idea of modify double pedal, is it possible? i 
checked the kick pad, the trigger section is just 
in the center of the rubber pad... how?

help ~~~ help~~~ i cannot sleep without playing 
double pedal~~~
