The Yamaha DTX6K2-X Electronic Drum Kit is a powerful, engaging drumming experience with compact convenience. It features the DTX-PRO module with the innovative Kit Modifier sparking creativity and delivering superb performance in a compact configuration. The original Yamaha TCS (Textured Cellular Silicone) head used in the flagship models combined with real sound and ambiance recorded in a world-renowned studio to provide an authentic playing experience. It is recommended for all drummers who want to have fun, play like a pro, need a compact kit, and hope to easily transfer their skills to acoustic drums.

Real Sounds that Drive the Drummer

No compromise has been made in recording the sound of the instruments themselves, the key to any drum sound, along with the ambiance of the place where they are played. The DTX PRO has been fine-tuned to follow the drummer’s performance and allow for maximum expression.

Ergonomics

The acoustic drum sounds built into the DTX-PRO are all real sounds recorded in well-known studios. In addition, we have actual ambiance elements that are unique to those studios. A professional recording engineer has recorded and mixed performances by leading Yamaha artists, which the sound director, an electronic musical instrument development professional, has used extensively, from the initial attack until the very end of the recording. With a sound module carefully matched to the pads that are the drummer’s interface with their instrument, it has been fine-tuned to follow along with the player’s performance and offer excellent 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 is available from the natural sound of acoustic drums through to live performance sounds carefully crafted by engineers. The Ambience knob controls the reverberation of the drum sound; for an acoustic drum kit, up to 50% of the memory features the real ambiance components of the recording studio, while 51-100% is high-quality digital reverb. The Comp and effect knobs utilize the 1 knob control technology featured in Yamaha PA products.

Superbly Playable

Reproducing the way an acoustic drum behaves when struck is a key factor in the playability of electronic drums. It features a sound module that covers the full range of sound from the initial attack to the final cutoff, all based on samples of authentic drums tuned by a skilled engineer. 

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.

An Extensive Range Training Functions to Support Drummers

The wealth of practice functions featured in DTX Drums is 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.
