Yamaha DTXpressIII trigger module

[blackcom]

Hi!

Anyone here tried the Yamaha DTXpressIII trigger module?
How is is for "accurate" trigging, not double trigging etc?

I only need a MIDI output as I record my triggers to MIDI, so I really don't care about the sounds that comes with the module.

My current Alesis DM5 has some problems with double-trigging on the toms so I'm on the look for something better, and preferably rack-mountable.

I know the DDrum4 is really good, but it takes too much space in a rack...and the Roland TD series won't trig toms correctly unless they are completely muffled wich is bad if you like to blend in mics too.

Nevermind, checked it out today, and it wasen't impressed...

you shouldnt have any probs with the dm5 if set up properly, I wouldn't say the d drum is any more accurate, just a bit faster.

Oh?

What do you mean by faster, tried the DM Pro btw?

im having the same problem with the dm5. it seems that on faster double bass above 185 bpm it mistriggers. so the d drum is actually faster?
