Re: [DTXpress] Roland KC-500 keyboard amp @ gig

2001-05-15 by Philip Guest

I was going to ask you all to recommend an amp to use at small gigs.  Don't
Yamaha produce a dedicated amp/monitor for their DTX range like Roland do
for their V-Drums with the PM-3 monitor?  Has anyone used a PM-3 monitor
with their DTXpress kit and if so, is it suitable for small gigs?

Regards
Phil
