Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

You could use the RHH130 (comes with the Special) on a remote cable
hihat. 

 

Before I upgraded to the Dtxtreme IIS, I used a PCY65S pad on a cymbal
arm instead of the TP65 pad for my hihat. There was more give to it. At
the time I had two Dtxpress modules and put a PCY10 bell pad on top of
the PCY65S pad and through a little cable splitting/combining made a
true three zone hihat pad (bell/pad/edge) that was controlled by a
single HH65 pedal. I described this in detail here in the group, but it
goes back several years.

Subject: Spam:[DTXpress] DTXpress III hihat upgrade Q.

 

Okay, don't have my DTXpress III yet, but I'm thinking about upgrades 
already. I like the rack-mounted hihat pad that comes on the Roland 
kits, but I've heard that people have had limited success getting them 
to function with the DTXIII module. Are there any alternative hihat 
pads that I can mount on the rack like the stock one, preferably with 
edge triggers? I'd consider the 3-zone TP-65S, but I'm concerned 
about the rim wear, plus, it doesn't look like a hihat pad. Even 
though the hihat/stand that comes with the III SP probably would be 
ideal, I don't want to use a separate hihat stand.

I remember reading one of your posts about your hihat setup.  Based 
on your replies to my other post and this one, I'm now thinking that 
the PCY65S might be the way to go for the hihat rather than a Roland 
CY-5.  Is the edge durable enough to withstand lots of shoulder-of-
the-stick hits?

Also, I started looking for a PCY-10 to eventually add to the 
ride "cymbal", but came up with nil.  Do you still have one you'd be 
willing for part with for a fair price?

Thanks!
