Choke on a HiHat pedal? Maybe you mean choke on the HiHat cymbal? In this case it is yes.

2. how can i assign sounds from other drum machines thru midi to specific pads ,

By assigning required MIDI Notes to any of pads.

3. how do i map the tones to each pad / cymbal , Hi hat etc.. 4 Vsti/s

You do it by assigning Notes in MegaDrum and mapping sounds to notes in Vsti's.

4.do u ship to India and UK ?? what would that cost ?
wwhat is the weight of the 32 module?

Shipping to India is 20GBP. It weighs just under 1kg.

does 32 mean 16 inputs in stereo , so rim n pad , or 2 pads ??

The 32 inputs module has 17 jacks: 1 for a HiHat pedal, 1 for Kick and 15 stereo jacks which you can use with 15 dual/triple zone pads/cymbals or 30 single zone pads/cymbals using Y-splitter cables.

what the difference on the 56 in puts , n the costs ? n the weight ?

Different number of inputs, different enclosures, different wights and different costs.

5.what the the other optional add on i might decide ,
5.what do the add on cards like positional sensing do?

The only optional addon is the Positional sensing addon. It enables positional sensing on 5 inputs for mesh type pads with centrally located piezo cones.

6. can i buy the parts only n assemble them my self , to save on custom duties here in India ?

You can go after one of MegaDrum kits: http://www.megadrum.info/forums/viewtop ... f=3&t=1420
You will have to add your own enclosure and input jacks.

7. how difficult is it to assemble them ?? like in a pc , pin 1 to pin 1 assembly?

With kits you will have to do some soldering of input jacks. The rest is just drilling your own enclosure and then doing some plugging and screwing.

8. i have some experience assembeling computers for several yrs..
9. do u have the history chart of upgrades on the eprom ?

http://www.megadrum.info/forums/viewtop ... f=3&t=1075

10. r the future update/ grades on the firm ware chargeable?

No.

11. what r the warranties like ..
