Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

thanks for your suggestion, 
i originally thought i'd be able to plug 2 single zone pads into any
port that supported a dual zone pad but this is not the case. only
the 9/10 input supports this.
i'm already using the 9/10 plug for 2 single zone cymbals and i have
no where else to plug my extra tom in.

does anyone know how i can make the dtx think i'm plugging in a dual
zone pad rather than 2 singles. maybe i can trick it into thinking
one of them is a rim. 

i've spent hours palying around in trigger set up, and i can't work
out how to do it.

many thanks
