With the Yamaha DTX500K Bundle yet get everything you need to start playing. DTX500K replaces the hugely successful DTXplorer and delivers the legendary Yamaha sound quality, feel and playability of acoustic drums.
DTX500K features the Yamaha DTX500 drum trigger module, which is a 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 so you will feel like you are listening to a “live” set of drums. The 50 preset kits are ready for you to perform a wide range of music styles, and you can select your favourite 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.
Songs featured within DTX500K let you play along in different styles with or without the recorded drum track, solo the bass player, or with the full ensemble to make playing fun and practicing seem more like a band rehearsal. Yamaha’s popular groove tools have set the standard for educational functions that are not only easy and fun to use, but actually help you become a better drummer. The DTX500K has a collection of training functions including the popular Groove Check that displays whether you are playing early or late, so you can more easily correct undesirable habits. Rhythm Gate is like a drumming game that automatically mutes the sound if you playing is too far out of time, so you quickly learn to control your groove and play “in the pocket”. Practice has never been this much fun.
The cymbals of the DTX500 Kit features Yamaha's advanced 3-zone cymbal pads which can express a different sound in each of the cup, bow and edge zones. The DTX500K features a hi-hat system that uses a remote hi-hat pedal controller and trigger pad to provide realistic hi-hat expression. Yamaha DTX500 Kit gives you peace of mind, you can expand by adding up to four pads if you want more toms, cymbals or a double-bass configuration. All kinds of upgrades including support for the DTX-PADs are possible. The RS40 rack system comes pre-assembled for easy setup and offers solid performance in a light weight, fold-able design for easy storage.
