Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Any pad will work in any input. However if you want the proper 
characteristics for a particular pad or purpose, you need to set it 
for the proper pad type. These should already be factory set. But just 
as a check, plug the pad into any other input. If it still doesn't 
work, try a different cable.Try to use a stereo cable,but even a 
non-stereo cable will tell you something. The fact that you get a 
'ping' when un-plugging tells you that the input is working. Probably 
a bad cable.
