DTXpress expansion using a midi pad device?

DTXpress expansion using a midi pad device?

2007-09-24 by Tom

Hi
Has anyone expanded their DTXpress using midi? 

Like perhaps using one of those smaller yamaha DD-55C with 7 pads and 2 pedals and using 
it for extra sounds, like cow bell and metal strikes and stuff?

I was thinking of using a DD-55C that used to use and running the midi to the DTXpress and 
let the DTXpress take care of the sounds and just use the DD-55C for the triggers? I don't 
know much about midi so this is a shot in the dark!

I guess I could also just run the output from the DD-55C to the input of the dtxpress, but 
maby there is an advantage using the midi?

Thanks
Tom
