Paul,

That was always the implication. Going up from the HH60 to 80 with 
the DTXpress was supposed to give "full" variability. But what we 
don't know is whether an HH80/DTXPU interface for Yamaha simply 
results in more discrete "steps" or a completely different electronic 
strategy that allows a fully continous range on the pedal. We know 
that Roland and Roland-style pedals, like the Pintech, are not 
compatible with Yamaha modules right out of the box. At the very 
least, they require a polarity change, but they may also diverge from 
Yamaha pedals in other respects, thus making predictions about 
performance without direct A/B comparison, or more technological 
information, impossible. Tom at Visu-lite or Brian at Pintech might 
be able to clarify the matter.
