Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

hello just wanted to say hi and ask has anyone compared mesh heads to 
rubber pads is one better or worse im looking at getting an e kit 
dono if i wand mesh or pads any in fo would be great thanks

Welcome to the group!

I have played both rubber pads and mesh heads. They both have there 
strengths and weaknesses. I'd say that mesh heads can simulate an 
acoustic ket better and they are replaceable...but fine tuning is in 
order. Rubber pads may have a little more bounce, wich is helpful 
when trying to play fast. The DTXpress actually feels great and the 
osunds are awesome, and even better with all the tweaking 
capabilities of the DTX II brain. I got to try one out when I visited 
Liberty University in Lynchburg. I was sold then and there. Gettin 
mine in a few weeks. Its all a preference...should go try both out at 
your local music shop and see which fits you best. Mesh drums are 
also going to twice as expensive, or more, depending on the company.
