Differences between 60 and 65 style pads

Differences between 60 and 65 style pads

2002-10-22 by Ozan YAGCI

Hi,
I am quite new to the group. I plan to buy a Dtxpress and I saw a price list for all the components�at�the yamaha�dealer.
There are different settings for the drumset proposed to me. One package covers
4 x TP65,� 1 x TP65S,� 1 x PCY65,� 1 x PCY65S, 1 x HH65, 1 x KP65� priced 515 Euros.
And the other combination is
HH 60, KP 60, TP 60 x 5,� PCY 60 x 2 priced 603 Euros.
I am kinda confused because for me, the higher the version of the good, the more expensive is the price. But this is vice versa. It looks like I should buy the 65's but ..... �
Can anyone inform the about these pads. Which ones should I prefer. Or what are the differences between the two versions.� I know the T65's are 3 zone pads but what about the others ?
What kind of a combination do you advise me to gather by the means of hi-hat, pads etc. for a reasonable set. Please know that I like the little nuances and mid-sounds on hi-hat and pads.
Thanks in advance.
Ozzy.

The 65's are the new pads with the DTXpress II. But I think only one 
of the pads is 3-zone.  Anybody?
With what you state, the pricing IS confusing!!

Thank you Scott. 
I got confused because of that pricing.
So I should go for the 65 pads instead of 60's. Ok. Below is the 
configuration. The set includes 4 TP65 and 1 TP65S. It looks like all 
of them are 3 zone.

DTXP2	 Drum Trigger Modul with 3 zone functionality, easy,   
navigation, improved Groove Check function	 

KP 65	 Kick Pad (foot pedal necessary) 	 
TP 65	 3 Zone Drum Pad	 
TP 65S	 3 Zone Drum Pad	 
RS 65	 Racksystem, black aluminium	 
HH 65	 HiHat Footpedal	 
PCY 65	 Single Zone Cymbal Pad	 
PCY 65S	 2 Zone Cymbal Pad	 
DTP K95	 Package: 4 x TP65, 1 x TP65S, 1 x PCY65, 1 x PCY65S, 
1 x HH65, 1 x KP65	 


Can anyone tell me where I can buy yamaha pads online ? 

Thanks

Ozzy.

Looks like a standard DTXPress II package as I'm enjoying it at home.

Other people on the list have posted http://www.drumbalaya.com previously,
looks like they've got it all!

Bye, Erik

No, not all the tp-65 are 3 zone!!! I can absolutely guarantee that. 
Only one of them is. The TP-65s (snare) the others are just one zone. 
By the way I do believe that the 65 series pach is the better deal 
because they are the successor of the 60 series. The 60 series only 
featured a two zone snare pad. And the toms were also one zone. If 
you want to buy a complete DTXpress drumkit, just ask for one in the 
shop. Then you'll get the new module, new padset (3zone snare, 2 zone 
chokable cymbal and the new and greatly improved Kicktower) and the 
new racksystem.
