Hi,

In answer to your questions:
1)The maximum number of inputs is 10 if you use mono
pads (with a splitter on 9/10). However, you can use
stereo pads to effectively double this. The
implementation of stereo pads on the unit is not as
good as, say, the DTX2 or VDrums but it's a start.
Stereo pads give you two voices: one on the rim and
one on the main pad.
2)& 3) The logiztix pads look seriously crap, but the
theory is very good. I'm certainly going to give one a
try. There's no reason why you can't buy a second
DTXpress brain and add homemade pads to it as long as
the transducers you use are comparable to those on the
DTXpress. The main obstacle is how do you get all
those pads onto the existing frame? I think you might
have to get a bit handy with a welding torch and some
metal tubes....
