Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Thx a lot OGD,

That makes sense,.. I am tinkering right now. I'm starting to get the 
hang of it. I'm sure theres a lot I don't know yet though. lol
I guess I'm glad I got the DTX1 instead of the 2. I like the idea of 
having the options of 1-8 chokable pads instead of 2,6 & 7.

This site is great, I really appreciate the help! The sooner I get 
some kits setup, the sooner I can get back to recording. And thats 
what means the most to me. 8>) THX AGAIN !
