Jay,

I am not aware of any DTXpress instructional videos on youtube but you could try searching. The manuals aren't great but you will have to persevere, and ask questions here.

You cannot add sounds to the DTXpress module. You can use MIDI to trigger any sound you like on your computer. The sound will then come from the computer not the DTXpress module.
