Building an acoustic-electronic drum kit can be like trying to solve a puzzle that you already have some of the pieces to but don’t know exactly what else you might need to put it all together. DTX Hybrid Packs take the guesswork out of assembling a system for triggering electronic drums from any acoustic drum set. Based around the versatile DTX502 Drum Trigger Module, these packs make setting up your acoustic drums with electronic triggers and pads easier than ever.

In addition to the 691 preset sounds, the DTX502 lets you import new samples (16-bit WAVE/AIFF format), and new songs (MIDI files) via the MusicSoft Manager app for Apple iOS devices or MusicSoft Downloader for Windows PC. Trigger custom samples with your acoustic drums and play along to your favorite MIDI songs.

After years of designing and manufacturing some of the world’s finest drums, Yamaha knows what it means for drums to feel good and play naturally. We designed the DTX-PAD to be the new standard in electronic drum pads, providing drummers with a pad that feels good, offers playability that is as close as possible to acoustic drums, and is exceptionally quiet. This next generation drum pad allows for true development of acoustic drumming techniques. [DTX-PAD model XP80 included with DTXHP587 and DTXHP580.]

Les cymbales de la DTX750K sont équipées de nos pads trois zones, une technologie avancée qui distingue clairement les sonorités de la cloche, du corps et de la tranche. Ces cymbales procurent un rebond agréable de la baguette et génèrent très peu de bruit sur le plan acoustique, une caractéristique essentielle lorsqu’on utilise une batterie électronique pour travailler à la maison. En plus d’un balancement très naturel sur le pied, elles disposent des fonctions « Choke » et « Mute » procurant un niveau d’expressivité élevé, proche de ce que l’on peut obtenir d’une vraie cymbale. .

Le DTX502 comprend une entrée audio permettant de connecter un lecteur de musique externe au module afin que vous puissiez jouer avec votre musique préférée, soit par la sortie principale, soit dans votre casque pour maîtriser rapidement le morceau que vous voulez apprendre note par note.

The DTX502 is equipped with a high-performance, programmable metronome made for drummers that allows complicated rhythms and tones to be set. The metronome helps you maintain a steady rhythm, not only with a ticking sound but also with a blinking light so you can visualize the tempo as well. Moreover, there are many other useful click functions such as a built-in timer for self-timed practice sessions or stopping the click automatically after you have established the tempo.

The DTX HYBRID PACKS are each expandable should you want to add more drum pads or triggers to your hybrid setup. All kinds of upgrades are possible, including support for creating a completely electronic drum kit.

With the USB MIDI port you can connect the DTX502 to a computer or other MIDI devices, allowing you to record your drum performance data or as a controller of software-based sound sources such as VST instruments. With USB you can also connect to supported Apple iOS devices and enhance your experience with DTX502 Touch, MusicSoft Manager, and SongBeats.
