Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Thanks OGD. - Just to add that, I am running a DTXP III module.

In the meantime I purchased a PCY-150 and I found a setting which
works perfectly. Actually I previously made a mistake as I overlooked
the pad type setting for the PCY-150 which is actually PCY1 not PCY3
as the "normal" cymbal pads would require.

1 - kick (KP65)
2 - snare (TP65S)
3 - tom 1 (TP65)
4 - tom 2 (TP65)
5 - Crash 2 (PCY65S)
6 - ride (PCY150S)
7 - crash 1 (PCY65S)
8 - hihat (TP65)
9/10 - Tom 3 (TP65) 

All cymbals are chokeable as you rightly mentioned that the  DTXP III
module offers that feature for all the 1-8 inputs. The PCY-150S
therefore has a 3-zone capability: Cup, pad, edge. 

Regards     -Bongo-
