Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

For layering, when editing a VOICE in the DTXpress, use the Select 
buttons and move to the "V=1" option and change it to "V=2". You can 
now use the Select buttons to go back to the sound options and 
change the second layer voice. Use the page buttons to access the 
Balance and X-Fade functions, which affect which voice is louder 
(Balance) and which voice gets more emphasis based on how hard the 
trigger is hit (X-Fade).

Regarding headphones, I would recommend using an inexpensive mixer 
matched with a headphone amp.

I'm using a Behringer Eurorack UB802 with great results

For multiple headphones, a small amp like this Rolls HA43 should 
work well and allow you to control the volume on each headphone 
(http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/fg=101/g=live/search/detail/base

Hope this helps - Rudy
