New DTX700 Series Electronic Drum Kit by Yamaha

Yamaha DTX700K is an electronic drum kit that produces the legendary Yamaha sound quality, feel and playability of acoustic drums. Yamaha DTX700K features DTX-PAD, which delivers the new standard in electronic drum pads, providing drummers with a pad that is exceptionally quiet. Yamaha have teamed up with the world’s top drummers to satisfy their demanding sense of perfection.This next generation drum pad allows for true development of acoustic drumming techniques. The DTX700K utilizes the DTX-PAD for the snare, with authentic stick response and ability to play open/closed rim shots essential for snare performance.

Yamaha DTX700 drum trigger module is packed with 1,268 high quality acoustic drum, cymbal, and percussion voices  as well as a collection of sounds from the MOTIF XF synthesizer. There is a wide variety of preset kits that are extremely realistic down to the smallest details. DTX700 module will bring out your best drum playing by allowing you to focus on your performance.

The songs of the DTX700 Kit let you play along with or without the pre-recorded drum track, with just the bass player, or with the full ensemble to make playing and practicing seem more like a real band rehearsal. You can add up to 64MB of new sounds to the DTX700K by importing wave samples directly into the module via the USB device port. Up to four different sounds can be layered on any single pad. The stack function allows those sounds to be reproduced simultaneously, and the alternate function allows the four sounds to activate in sequence.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 DTX700K 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 DTX700K also features Yamaha's professional 3-zone cymbal pads, which can express a different sound in each of the cup, bow and edge zones. The Yamaha DTX700 Kit gives you peace of mind letting you expand by adding up to three additional pads if you need to have more toms, cymbals or a double-bass configuration. Moreover, all kinds of upgrades, such as an enlarged size for the snare’s DTX-PAD, are possible. The rack system for the DTX700K offers solid performance and positioning for your kit and has features of our drum hardware including a genuine Yamaha hi-hat stand that lets you freely position the hi-hat as you would on an acoustic kit.
