The labels in blue in the pics are the sounds I have coming from the 
TD-5.
I really like the cymbal sounds on that module.
There are a couple really good kick sounds, too. But if I use those, I 
lose my front-panel kick level control.In the studio, I'm only using 
the XPress, anyway.When I use the TD-5, I run the outputs into the 
front-panel 1/8" stereo input jack on the XPress. Works great. Playing 
live, I don't use stereo, so I could Pan cymbals and kick on TD-5, and 
still get individual kick volume on my mixer.That is really the best 
way to do it.Also using the mixer allows better external effects 
control.
