Here's a pic diagram of the whole setup... Drummers, did I miss out anything??The Roland E16 is midi-ed out to the Axiom 25 above it & the Axiom is usb-ed to the Macbook...Axiom 25 controls the snares, hi-hats, rides, toms & crashes on Addictive Drmz in Logic which is rewired to Reason whereby the Roland E16 triggers the Kicks thru bus 4 on the NNXT sampler...One more thing I might do later is tie another string to either play double kicks or activate open/close hi-hats...-Kel

You should take that outside and play for change one day, just to see how people look at you! And if you do, please send pics.B

Ok Bryan... Let me brush up my drumming chops first ^_^K

You should be able to open and close the hihat with the expression pedal; AD is designed to work with pads kits. Check the manual and remap expression or volume to whatever AD uses for open/close.
