Yamaha DTX 500 Series Electronic Drum Kits Overview – Nevada Music UK

electronic drumsBuy here… http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/drums/electronic/#!sort=price-desc&brand=Yamaha
A compilation we put together of all Yamaha’s DTX 500 video’s.

The Yamaha DTX520K Electronic Drum Kit gives you the feel and playability of real acoustic drums and the DTX520K has undergone some clever re-design features to make this electronic kit as real as it can possibly get.
The DTX520K uses a DTX-PAD for the snare to give you an authentic stick response and the ability to play open/closed rim shots whilst the Hi-Hat system features a dual-zone trigger pad (for edge and bow sounds). Also, the kit comes with Yamaha’s professional 3-zone cymbal pads which can express a different sound in each of the cup, bow and edge zones featuring a good stick feel and low acoustic noise.
The DTX500 Drum Trigger Module includes Yamaha’s high quality tone generator for realistic acoustic drums, with details like velocity-switching samples (which changes the type of sampled sound as you play harder). The DTX500 gives you 50 preset kits from a wide range of music styles and also allows the user to select their favourite sounds and create custom user kits. You even have the ability to add digital reverb effects and master EQ to sweeten your sound and for extra realistic response the DTX500 Module uses digital sound technology derived from the MOTIF ES synthesizer.

The DTX520K can easily be expanded by up to four additional pads if you need more toms, cymbals, or a double-bass configuration. The Yamaha DTX520K includes the following items :-

DTX500 Module, XP80 Snare, 2 x TP65 Toms, TP65 Floor Tom, KP65 Bass Drum, PCY100 + HH65 Hi-Hat, PCY100 Crash Cymbal, PCY135 Ride Cymbal, RS500 Rack.

The DTX500K Electronic Drum Kit from Yamaha has had major feature updates to provide an even more realistic drumming experience. The DTX500K uses a DTX-PAD for the snare to give you an authentic stick response and the ability to play open/closed rim shots.
The DTX500K features a hi-hat system that uses a remote hi-hat pedal controller (included with the kit) and trigger pad to provide realistic hi-hat expression. The pedal and pad can be located anywhere around the kit, much like the popular remote cable hi-hat systems for acoustic drums. Moreover, the hi-hat can express various styles of play such as open/close position, closed pedal and foot splash. You can even play tip and edge voices for adding subtle nuances to the beat …

The DTX500 Drum Trigger Module completes the feature range of this amazingly realistic kit whilst Yamaha’s high quality tone generator provides realistic acoustic drums, with details like velocity-switching samples (that switches between a range of samples as you play harder or softer). The DTX500 gives you 50 preset kits from a wide range of music styles. Select your favourite sounds and create custom user kits. Add digital reverb effects and master EQ to sweeten your sound. The DTX500 Module used digital sound technology derived from the MOTIF ES synthesizer.

Unlike some other electronic drum kits, the DTX500K even comes supplied with a Yamaha bass drum pedal! The DTX500K can easily be expanded by up to four additional pads if you need more toms, cymbals, or a double-bass configuration. Check out the Yamaha DTX500K on your next visit to the Nevada Music Warehouse …
