At this stage, I have two choices: (1) find a module that allows for note selection for cymbals as well as drums which is compatible with the DM8 or (2) find a VST drum app that will let me map the cymbals to match the fixed settings on the DM8 module. While setting up the module to match up with the desired VST drums, I had no problems the major roadblock came when I attempted to choose the cymbals that worked best with the drums - it was there I discovered that the notes to trigger the cymbals were fixed, which was a drag, since the cymbals that were triggered weren't very good. I realized the error of my ways when I attempted to use the kit to trigger various VST kits on my system - a necessity in light of the fact that the DM8 module lacks the sound quality I would need to consider using it in my recordings. Anyway, not being a drummer per se, I made my purchase from a position of what can only be called supreme ignorance (better than everyone else's!). I'll wait a second for the snickering to stop.
