Get The DCP Sample Library Free with Purchase of Yamaha DTX-PRO Drum Sets

The DTX8 series offers the uncompromising sound, feel, and choice of playing surfaces that allow drummers to perform at their best. The DTX-PRO module, equipped with the same tone generator as the DTX-PROX module, delivers sounds that have been fine-tuned to naturally follow the drummer’s performance and allow for maximum expression.

The DTX-PRO features real sounds and real sampled room ambience recorded in world-renowned studios. With the KIT MODIFER, the experience of Yamaha and our voicing that has been cultivated over the years, has been condensed into three knobs: AMBIENCE, COMPRESSION, and EFFECT. With the simple twist of a knob, it is possible to express a wide range of sounds, from natural acoustic to the unique sounds created by professional engineers and producers.

The DTX8 series lets drummers choose between two head materials according to their personal preference, for optimum response when playing. Yamaha TCS (Textured Cellular Silicone) heads feature a unique internal structure that provides a realistic response with realistic hardness and rebound, as well as a treated surface that prevents stick sliding. The result is a natural drum feel that encourages you to keep playing.

The mesh pads use two-ply heads made by Remo. They boast outstanding noise reduction, durability, and feel when hit, as well as a great rebound, making them superbly comfortable to play. The heads can be tuned to suit your personal preferences. The snare pad is equipped with three sensors that precisely respond to delicate stick work.

The pads feature wooden birch drum shells which are made and painted at Yamaha acoustic drum factories. The badges, lugs, and hoops are also standard acoustic drum parts. These shells offer the presence and beauty of authentic acoustic drums and give the drums a greater presence and stage appeal. All cymbal pads feature 3-zones, meaning they all produce different sounds at the edge, bow, and cup, as well as choke and mute functionality. The ride cymbals come equipped with a hit point detection function allowing them to reproduce delicate stick work. Advanced streaming USB audio and MIDI information allows connectivity to numerous devices for recording, streaming and the Rec’n’Share app without additional input gear. Create high-quality videos for your socials without leaving the drum throne. The module includes individual inputs allowing for hybrid setups or easily augmenting the kit with more pads.

The ability to layer up to four sounds per pad, along with stacking two different effects ignites creativity and allows you to customize your sound with professional studio quality. The rich practice functions of DTX-PRO make you a better drummer, quicker! Programmable metronome with high functionality as sophisticated metronome, Recorder function, 10 training functions that are perfect for training drummer’s sense of rhythm, various genres of 37 training songs, and so on. Everyone from beginners to professionals will find useful functions for daily training.
