Members t_guns Posted June 17, 2009 Members Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hey guys. I am mainly a guitarist, but play everything when it comes to recording at my house (hobby studio). I program all my drums with sample track clips or through my midi drum pad. I am getting a Yamaha Ydd-60 pretty cheap to lay out some drum tracks / learn to play a little. Down the road I plan to invest in a Yamaha DTXplorer or DTXpress.My question is: will I be able to use the YDD-60 with the main kit as expansion pads? I am mainly thinking of setting it up via midi and mapping roto toms, splash and china cymbals, cowbell, etc. That way I can play with a "full" kit.Has anyone done anything like this? The HC search function didn't pull up anything for me.Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members faileddrummer Posted June 17, 2009 Members Share Posted June 17, 2009 My fault on the spelling error. It has been corrected. As far as your question, I'm sure plenty of people have done it. There was an electric drumming forum, but I forgot the link. Vdrum.com or something along those lines. They'd be able to answer your questions.

Members Enigmatic Posted June 18, 2009 Members Share Posted June 18, 2009 If it has a midi out, you should be able to hook it using M-Audio UNO 1x1 adapter with your laptop or PC. I am not whether you can change the Midi mappings or not, but you can also do so using LooBe software.
