Please post all your questions directly to the board, that way everyone sees
them and gets the benefit of the answer.

Just briefly though...

Yamaha do a dual zone rubber pad, as do many other manufacturers (try
Pintech for value) which will all work with the DTXpress stereo inputs
(1-8).
You need a "dual zone" pad, using a piezo trigger for the main zone and a
condenser trigger for the outer rim.

Mesh head pads aren't an option.  Because of the nature of the design they
do not lend themselves to condenser triggers.  My knowledge is by no means
exhaustive, but I am not aware of any mesh head dual zone pads that use
condenser triggers for the rim, all use a second piezo so would have to go
through 9/10 on the DTXpress.

Hope you get what you're looking for
Sanc
