Many thanks for the in depth response.  The info above was especially 
useful as I plan to add a couple of dual zone cymbal pads.  One as an 
extra crash (or rather two in one) and the other to use for the hi-
hat pad leaving a TP65 for use as a fourth tom.

Actually, that sounds a lot like your 'Phase I' minus the Pintech.  
Any further advice on using a TP65S for the hi-hat?
