The Yamaha DTX560K electronic drum kit provides outstanding value in a professional digital drum set. With DTX-PADs for snare and toms, real hi-hat trigger, and two large 3-zone cymbals, you're set for great drumming. What is more important, the sound or the feel? Well, they're both important, but if the drums don't feel right, they won't be played. So let's begin with the pads.
It's All About The Feel - DTX PADSimply put, the Yamaha DTX-PAD lets you practice and play more, reaping the benefits of a drum pad that really feels like a drum. The head of the DTX-PAD is filled with air bubbles that have been carefully arrayed to provide a feel that actually entices drummers to play. These bubbles also act as a cushion when the drum is hit, so that you can play for extended periods without worrying about harming your arms or wrists.
Another benefit of the DTX-PAD is that it's quiet. It was designed to be much quieter than other electronic drum pads when played, which gives you the freedom to play wherever and whenever you like. Becoming a good drummer takes endless hours of dedicated practice, and that's one reason why Yamaha designed the DTX drums to make practicing more fun, focusing on giving the DTX-PAD a feel that would let drummers simply enjoy playing.
Some drummers worry that playing an electronic kit can make the transition back to an acoustic kit difficult. To ensure that this is not a problem, the DTX-PAD offers playability very close to that of an acoustic drum. The pad has a very good feel and allows great stick control. This give you a uniform, connected feel that translates easily into better drumming.
The Module (Sound Engine) - DTX500The DTX500 drum trigger module features Yamaha’s high-quality tone generator with realistic acoustic drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds. You get the sounds of hi-end oak, maple, beech and birch drums, with details like velocity switching samples - sounds change as you play harder - so you will feel like you're listening to live drums.
The 50 preset kits provide you with a wide range of music styles to choose from. You can also select your favorite sounds to create custom user kits, and add digital reverb effects and master EQ to sweeten the sound. With 427 naturally sampled acoustic drum and percussion voices, the DTX500 module will bring out your best playing by providing highly realistic and powerful drum sounds.
