Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Just experimented and tried this out last night! I have two separate 
pads for my Hi-Hat set-up. Each going to separate DTX modules. My Hi-
Hat controller is slit with a stereo 'Y' cable to both modules. What 
a trip:)
I have one set to a higher pitch and the other to a lower pitch. The 
placements were tricky, but I have it situated where it works 
well...It's fun too:)

Steve,
 
I setup my last kit running the hihat triggers to two module, so that I
could have a three zone hihat that was controlled from one HH65 hihat pedal.
The three zones came from two on a PCY65S (bow/edge) and a the third on a
PCY10 (bell). Since both pads were mounted to the same cymbal arm, it
yeilded a three zone hihat. The HH65 was Y-split with a true stereo splitter
to module 1 and module 2 HHCTRL jacks. The PCY10 output was sent to Module
1/Input 1 and Module 2/Input 8. The PCY65S output was sent to Module 1/Input
8 and Module 2/Input 1. The reason for sending the outputs from each pad to
both modules was to take advantage of the "Specific Rejection" function in
the modules so that hitting one pad wouldn't trigger the other. 
 
There are alot of creative things that can be done when you have two
modules.

Wow, now THAT's interesting!

Yeah, I'm only using my DTXpress I and III modules now and thinking 
of different creative ways to connect pads. Things are going to get 
real crazy when I start using my Alesis DM Pro module!
Especially with the Hi-Hat situation, these cool idea's can really 
give you multiple Hi-Hat sounds. It's a trip to have two choices of 
Hat set-up in one song without stopping changing the voice sample. 
Your way with the idea of having MORE inbetween sounds like a  great 
idea to try:)
If only I had room for TWO snares!:o As it is, I love the excess of 
cybal rides and crashes. My drummer friend (acoustic player) of 25 
years of playing almost didn't know what to do with all my pads!

Thanks, Steve
