The Yamaha DTXPRESSIV digital drum set features an all-new voice bank with samples of Yamaha's most popular drums including the Oak Custom and Maple Custom. The cymbal pads on the DTXPRESSIV have great response and feel, allowing every nuance of your playing to come through. As an educational tool, the DTXPRESSIV excels with a fully programmable click, Groove Check, and Rhythm Gate features.
Equally at home in the studio or on the stage, the Yamaha DTXPRESSIV digital drum set is another example of the superior blend of sound and function. When Yamaha constructs an electronic drum set, they embrace technology from their digital musical instrument division and combine it with know-how from their esteemed acoustic drum makers. Yamaha is the only acoustic drum company that makes electronic drum sets, providing a unique understanding of today's drummer's needs.
In church use, the Yamaha DTXPRESS IV provides you with some excellent solutions. Most obviously, as an electronic kit there is little or no acoustic noise coming off the pads. Plus you have complete control over your sounds - both the individual pads, and the kit as a whole.
Playing during a worship service doesn't only require top quality drum sounds; you may need to punctuate using orchestral percussion (timps, bells, etc.). In addition to the regular drum kits, you have masses of percussion instruments, plus sound effects - should you really need to wake up the congregation at some stage!
Although the DTXPRESS IV has full-size cymbal pads, and is sturdy as a rock to play, it can be both assembled and broken down in a few minutes, or simply picked up en mass and stored in an adjoining room or storage area.
As part of the extensive design process, Yamaha calls upon their roster of top drum artists to help shape, tweak, and fine-tune the digital drum. The result is a set with a brain incorporating sheer electronic wizardry and a soul that embodies living and breathing artist input worldwide.
Whether you're in the studio, on the road, or work mainly from home - where you can patch in your CD or MP3 player, or make use of the excellent teaching and practice aids like programmable metronome, Rhythm Gate, 44 full-length songs, and built-in sequencer - the DTXPRESS IV offers a sonic experience and feel way beyond its price tag.
If you're serious about your music, it's time you get acquainted with e-drums made by acoustic and digital innovators - Yamaha Electronic Drums.
