From my current (limited) understanding, I believe it has the usual 
claims for 'improved' sounds and kits from the plain TD6 plus support 
for the new dual trigger pads. And it looks different. Frankly I 
prefer the look of the DTXpress III's brain - the TD6V looks like a 
throwaway from an early episode of Star Trek. However - the proof of 
the pudding is in the eating. I shall see how it goes.

By the way (and getting back on topic), thinking about the DTXv2 - 
could I use a DTXpress II or III brain on that?
