u r right about that....i couldnt find a used yamaha trigger. roland is always out of whack in prices. i agree...$100 is a small price for what the mb will do.  im still looking.

Steady on, Keith. Price is the key. I'm seeing the first DTXpress 
module--possibly the least expensive realistic option right now--for 
about $200, and the TMC-6 for not better than $200 in any condition. 

Bobbie, I forgot to mention that true to its name, the TMC-6 has only 
6 inputs per bank. $200 is a lot to pay for 6 inputs, even if they 
have stereo and dual-zone capability. But Roland's pricing has always 
been outlandish. The discontinued T to M interfaces all had more 
inputs (albeit mono), and each would be available for around $100, 
but they are in seriously short supply. They began to dry up in 
earnest a couple of years ago. 

Assuming that performance is adequate, and word gets out (we can help 
to see to that), I'm seeing a genuine market for the MB at around 
$100. I hope that Ed Morin agrees.
