Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hi,
I have DtxpressIII Sp and im trying to connect it to my laptop so i can 
send some kits and use it with Drumkit from Hell, but im having 
problems with the Midi connection.
I have the cables connected like this: DtxIII Midi In -> M-audio Ozonic 
Midi Out -> laptop. The Midi cable in the Dtx manual is referred to the 
Mac position (although i've tried Pc1,Pc2 and Midi without success).
I'm using dEXTD to send the kits but i can't get it online, i've tried 
everything, if anyone can help me...

This is how my Midi options are configured:

better quality:

Yeah, i did that, still doesnt connect :(

You say you want to use Drumkit from Hell, so you need to get midi data OUT 
of the DXP3 into "the computer".  Two ways to do it.  

1. Use the Yamaha CBX serial midi driver and a serial cable plugged into the 
computer and the "To Host" port (impossible on recent Macs, maybe there's a 
serial port on your PC laptop) OR 

2. Use the Ozonic as your midi interface, in which case the "To Host" port 
settings must be set on MIDI and you must use a midi cable (not serial cable) 
to go from the DXP3 midi out -> Ozonic midi in.

If you want to use the editor in the screenshot you posted, I'd try the option 2 
above and get another midi cable and connect from Ozonic out -> DXP3 midi 
in.  Set the editor ports to "external ozonic midi" for both.

Hope this helps,

Tom
