Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

HELLO GROUP:

WELL I HAVE A LITTLE DOUBT ABOUT THE compatibility with the roland 
pads PD- 9 & 7 IN THE DTXpress, PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY RECOMENDATIONS 
ABOUT IT SEND ME BACK THE MESSAGE.

THANX AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR SELVES

I'm not sure about the pads themselves because I don't
know roland pads, but I can give you some info to
help.  If the roland pads you're talking about are
"dual zone" pads (most roland pads are) you won't be
able to use both zones unless you plug into the "9/10"
input on your dtxpress unit.  You can use them as
single pads and the will work fine, but it seems a
waste of money to pay for the pad if the dual zone
function won't in the input you're planning for it to
go into.  If the pads are stereo pads (which I doubt)
then you should be able to plug them in and use them
just like the pads that come with the drum kit.  Call
the drumshop you're going to get them from and find
out if the PD-7 or the PD-9s are dual zone or stereo. 
There is a difference.  I don't know how hey would
work on a dtxpress 2 unit however.  I hope this helps.
  -Joe

The Roland PD-9 and Pd-7 are the same type of rubber pad as the 
Yamaha TP80S and TP65S, with a piezo trigger for the body and an FSR 
for the rim. They should work fine as stereo pads through any of the 
DTXPU inputs 1-8, though they may require a little tweaking. I'm 
pretty sure that many members of this group have used them at one 
time or another without any great problem.

Roland stereo pads work great with the dtxpress! PD-9 and PD-7 are 
both STEREO. They will work as stereo in all inputs except 9/10.
