Real sounds that drive the drummer
No compromises were made when recording the sound of the instruments. Yamaha fine-tuned the DTX-PRO module for the DTX6K5-M to follow the drummer’s performance and maximize expression.
The acoustic drum sounds in the DTX-PRO are real recordings from well-known studios, enhanced with the unique ambience elements of those spaces.
Yamaha also optimized the DTX6 to sync with the player’s performance and provide exceptional expressive capabilities.
Intuitive functionality that stirs creativity
The Kit Modifier featured on the DTX-PRO offers drummers limitless possibilities for their creativity.
Kit Modifier condenses the sound creation know-how that Yamaha has accumulated over decades into three knobs: AMBIENCE, COMPRESSION, and EFFECT. A wide range of tonal possibilities are available.
The AMBIENCE knob controls the reverberation of the drum sound. For an acoustic drum kit, 1-50% is the reverbaration of the room and 51-100% is a high quality digital reverb.
The COMP and EFFECT knobs utilize the “1 knob” control technology featured in Yamaha PA products. COMP controls the compression effect and brings them to the front. EFFECT controls effects that have been optimized for preset kits.
“Superbly Playable”
Reproducing the way an acoustic drum behaves when struck is a key factor in the playability of electronic drums.
Yamaha electronic drums use a sound module that captures the entire sound range, from attack to cutoff. Skilled engineers tuned authentic drum samples to form the foundation of the module’s high-quality sound. The team extensively tested acoustic drum responses to hits, achieving a faithful representation of drum behavior. Professional drummers worldwide evaluated the DTX-PRO and enhanced its expressive capabilities through their feedback. Yamaha combines its music hardware expertise to create modules and pads with exceptional playability and craftsmanship.
“High-performance sound engine that recreates sound creation”
The high-performance sound engine equipping the DTX-PRO leverages the technologies that Yamaha has acquired over decades of making musical instruments of all kinds. With authentic acoustic and live drum sounds, the same high-end effects found in professional-grade synthesizers and audio equipment, and effect control functions that let you recreate the techniques of elite drummers with a single knob, the sound engine in the DTX-PRO even recreates the process of creating sound in recording studios and live performance scenarios.
Yamaha drum pads complement this with pad sensing technologies that accurately respond to player actions, delivering ultimate expressive capability reflected in the sound.
“Reliable Yamaha Hardware”
The DTX6K-X uses Yamaha’s traditional ball clamps for snare pads, making fine adjustment of settings easy.
Yamaha also makes acoustic drums and earns the trust of many professional drummers for their robustness and stability.
“An extensive range training functions to support drummers”
The wealth of practice functions featured in DTX Drums are also found in the DTX-PRO. Make the most of a sophisticated programmable metronome, recorder function, 10 training functions that are ideal for training a sense of rhythm, as well as 37 training songs that allow you to learn various genres. Beginners and professionals alike will find the DTX6 training functions a useful aid for daily practice.
“Professional grade headphone amp”
The headphone amplifier circuit delivers high-fidelity sound directly to the player and has been developed exclusively for electronic drums. Effectively combining a range of Yamaha circuit technologies with the power circuit provided independently for the headphone amplifier produces a powerful, high quality sound that envelops the player in realistic drum tones.
“Includes Cubase AI”
The DTX-PRO module from the DTX6K-X comes equipped with the music production software “Cubase AI” and includes download information to allow users to download the latest version.
Connect the DTX-PRO to your PC with a USB cable to perform the recording, editing, and mixing tasks that are the heart of music production—all in one software program.
