Yamaha, also a manufacturer of acoustic drums, focuses on a playing feel similar to that of acoustic drums. The snare drum and ride cymbal are the most frequently played pads. The 12" large-diameter newly developed 3-Piezo mesh snare pad and 15" ride cymbal pad feature as standard. The snare pad and tom pads use the same hoops as acoustic drums for realistic playing feel.
The Yamaha hi-hat stand included, which is known for its quality and functionality for acoustic drums, works perfectly with the hi-hat pad and allows your to enjoy the same set up as your acoustic drums.
All cymbal pads in the DTX6K5-M are three-zone pads, which corresponds to different edge, bow and cup sounds. These cymbals can also be choked or muted by grabbing the edge of the pad. The ride cymbal offers positional sensing, altering its sound based on where it's struck. Enabled by the DTX-PRO module’s high-definition sampling, it accurately reproduces delicate cymbal play.
The DTX series offers tools to help you improve efficiently so that you can enjoy playing drums for a long time. The DTX-PRO module has 10 training functions unique to electronic drums.
Develop an accurate sense of rhythm with ‘Measure Break’, which allows you to mute the metronome for a set number of measures, and ‘Rhythm Gate’, which will not pronounce a note if the rhythm you hit does not match the metronome.
The training functions will help you to develop your playing, accuracy and to develop your own unique style.
The DTX Drum Score/Instructional Collection, available online, includes sheet music for over 30 songs built into the DTX-PRO. The built-in songs support tempo changes and drum sound muting, and the variety of recorded music genres allows you to learn phrases from a wide variety of musical genres.The built-in songs can also be used in combination with training functions such as ‘Rhythm Gate’, where notes are not pronounced unless the rhythm you strike matches the metronome.
