I took a look. It is definitely a DTXpressI. I checked the prices of 
recent auctions for this version, and his reserve price seems too 
high. I might buy it for $660 but not $775. All things considered, 
unless budget compelled you to buy a II at the $700 to $800 mark, I 
still think that the IIISTD would be the more prudent purchase.

The DTXpress has full MIDI capability, which means that you can 
record to a sequencer on your PC and do as you will with the result, 
as well as record to the tracks of the DTXpress'on-board sequencer. 
Electronic drums are a gas. You won't be sorry.
