Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

When I get my kit, have I got reason to be scared of the
ever-so-often-mentioned Kick pad double triggering problem? 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that this problem comes
from a regular bad habit among drummers, where the drummer buries the
beater into the drum head rather than letting it bounce right off.
This would obviously be more evident with a hard kick pad like the
KP-60 than a conventional acoustic bassdrumhead that's usually
loosely tuned.

So, am I right??

I couldn't agree more !! ;o)
It's a case of adjusting ur playing style.

Now about your Hi Hat: be sure the "stereo " cable is to the pedal, not the pad. ("mono " cable goes to the pad.) You didn't say what was wrong exactly... but it seems this has been a minor issue for other new owners. Check out the "tips and tricks" for acheiving custom kits that sound quite a bit better than stock Yamaha settings..

Best of luck and enjoy!

mentioned tips and tricks for setting up beter than standard kits - 
where is this?
I can also claim to be a bit daft as i also caused myself minor 
stress by plugging in the wrong lead to the hi-hat control!

i've given up for the time being - hopefully the word will get 
through to yamaha and they will sort.
