Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Why did Yamaha name the DTX module as II and put it together with a 
kit they call III?   

What was rational behind that? 

Just curious,

Tom,
 
The Dtxpress I and Dtxpress II and Dtxpress III are from the same module
family, but that different and labeled differently on the front (and top) of
the module. So, a Dtxpress II module should not be coming with a Dtxpress
III kit. 
 
The drum pads on the Dtxpress II are the same pads that come with  the
Dtxpress III standard version. The rack is brushed aluminum, instead of
black.
 
The Dtxpress III Special comes with the newer round cymbals and the newer
hihat, but the drum pads are the same as what came with the II and III std.
 
The Dtxpress III module has some new voices on it.

Oh OK.  Thanks for the explan.  It's a little confusing.  I've been 
looking for a kit on eBay and getting a little mixed up trying to 
figure out what they're selling.  I want to get the pads that are 
made now, because I tried them and like them.   So I guess there is 
not a lot of difference in the II and the III.  Thats important to 
know.  Thanks again.
