Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

I found this list yesterday, and have been stuck reading past posts
for many hours. Call me obsessive, but I am having a great time
getting back to playing after a ten year hiatus. And the DTXpress is
way cooler than I anticipated...

Bought my DTXpress in mid November, after being motivated (and
harassed by a guitar playing buddy) to get back to it. Condo dweller,
I need e-drums: The Yamaha was the choice after a couple of weeks of
research and test-drives. Background: made my living playing at one
time...then I got a mortgage, started my own biz etc. Loving playing
again. Got a couple of rehearsal fill-in invites last month with a 12
pc R&B band...kind of a Commitments/Motown thing.  Could not have
done it without the "robo-kit"  Dug out my 1973 Gretsch's, tuned 'em,
and smacked 'em for the first time three weekks ago at the
rehearsal.True,  I'm rusty in the chops area, but the groove came
back, much to my relief. Bass player gave me the nod! I've been
saved....Amen.
