What he said or if you can find a TD-8, you could go with that as a MIDI trigger. You should be able to find a TD-8 in the $500US price range or less. I upgraded to the TD-12 from a TD-8 before I caught the MIDI bug and would have stuck with the TD-8 had MIDI happened earlier for me.

I have followed the path you suggest, but Manage in Finder/Explorer is not highlighted as a selectable option. It is in the list, just not selectable. I suspect I need to set the path for presets, but not sure where I should point this. Any help?

Couldn’t agree more. As an example, I had my amp system (Roland KCs) fired up to play guitar with a POD. I moved over to play the v-drums through my computer sound card and forgot it was also still plugged into the Roland KCs. Master volume on the TD-12 was barely a few notches over zero and I damn near blew my house down. Much higher velocity settings required to drive S2.0. I have remedied that potential problem now, but I’m nearly deaf going through this educational process.

If TT makes this global change, please note it in LARGE RED BLINKING LIGHTS.

I still have this problem where triggering from the m-audio keyboard I use or use the mouse to click the drums on the screen are much louder than when I play my TD-12, BUT here are some observations:
 
1. When I use the keyboard or mouse, the level meters on my Line 6 UX-2 go through the roof. I don’t know how to configure the velocity settings for either of these and they aren’t important to me anyway beyond the relative ah-ha I got when doing the comparison.
2. I have tweaked the heck out of the velocity settings in the module and some further tweaking on what appears to be a volume or velocity setting in S2.0 for each individual pad (after right clicking the relavent pad).
3. Number 2 has resulted in what I believe to be appropriate levels coming through to the UX-2. I fire up Solo, fire up iTunes and relieve the daily stress at what seems to me to be unity gain.
 
I hope this is helpful and I’m really diggin’ the crap out of S2.0…you guys have created quite a product here when I was happy with EZD. Actually, X pads allow me to use most of my favorite parts of Nashville with bits from the other sets. LOVE IT!

Anyone with some suggestions?
