Can I use a Yamaha digital cymbal with this and would it be capabale of closed hi-hat through holding a foot trigger?

There are only two trigger inputs and they can be assigned to any of the internal voices. These are normally used for hats and kick. You would have to give up one of the foot pedals to use an exterior cymbal. The hats use a momentary open/closed switch to operate. They are either open or closed, nothing in between. I set them for choked and a 1/4 open voice, so I get a sizzle when they are open.

You should be able to to send your midi to it. Honestly I am not 100% sure on the foot pedal, but I would say you can hook it up. Hope I helped.

It probably would be fine although I don't have direct experience with a cymbal that large. The largest cymbal I've placed on my mount is a 17" Zildjian Medium Thin Crash I use as a ride with a 6" stacker for an 8" splash. I attached it to the lip of my floor Tom (13"x13") and it worked wonderfully well. The attachments tilt to a desired angle. I'm going to order another to eliminate the need for stands other than my hi hat. I play gospel music and my ride sees plenty of action. Hopefully this helps.

I don't have a banjo. I don't see why not; it's just like tuning a drum head.

It will probably work fine. I found that larger diameter strings tended not to get hooked on the openings for the pads of your fingers. Consequently, I liked these better playing the Dobro than Banjo.

It's not lockable. It's held closed with a large threaded nut. It's pretty tough and will protect your cymbals well. I wouldn't overfill it with cymbals though to be safe.

No extra inputs for external triggers. You can connect this kit with a midi cable into your audio interface. I use the m-audio UNO Midi USB cable interface and it works great. I'm using Logic Pro 9, GarageBand and EZ Drummer as my pluggin

You can use midi to USB to hook up to your comp, then add extra triggers to the computer through other means. Am easy way is to use an old Rock Band drumset, already USB. Not great pads but good for specialty hours like cow Bell. The Roland pads are zone and velocity sensitive so you can assign multiple sounds to one. A few of the presets on the kit use this, if you hit the ride cymbal hard it triggers a splash.

No It is too small. As noted by others it is heavy and the set screw was damaged (could not hold weight). I modified to fit cymbal stand and it works great for me.

A table top would be too high, not angled correctly, and doesn't leave you the ability to work the foot pedals. I would definitely recommend using it on typical snare drum stand. I would also recommend a drum throne, stick holders, and a music stand. The stand could be a stand-alone or wall mounted. I use a Manhasset 5601 Model #56 Wall Music Stand. At some point you're going to want to swap out the pedals that come with it for something like the Yamaha HH-65 Hi-Hat pedal and a bass pedal, both of which would be near impossible to use if the DD65 was on a table.

Yes, you can use this to trigger anything that receives a USB Midi signal. Literally anything that is a Midi Mappable trigger or on/off setup. So if you wanted to you could set each switch to a different 808 Drum, 1 for Kick, 2nd for clap, and 3rd for hi-hat... If you so desire.

I don't think there are extra triggers/inputs. You can use it with VSTs etc but it will likely require a bit of setup. See my review for more details.

Just use it as a mono rig. Plug guitar into what effects you want and the JamMan the last in the chain.

I am not the actual user but theres not much room to add, they have somo aux entries but not free for other cymbals or drums

you can change the sound of all the pads , I use the cymbals as percussion sometimes but you can change the cymbal to a drum if you want.

I think the problem that you would run into is that if you were hitting a practice pad you would ruin the reflective ends of the drum sticks and that is how the camera reads your movements. Go on YouTube and view the videos on how the Aerodrums work and you will see what I mean.

It has one extra input for expansion. I added an additional cymbal and boom arm. Just assign what you want the trigger to do i.e. cymbal, kick, snare or whatever sound you want from the module.
