A complete 5-piece electronic kit packed with features at price that'll allow you to explore electronic drumming without the steep price tag of most kits!

The Yamaha DTXPLORER is an electronic drum set that brings Yamaha's renowned electronic drum technology within reach of the beginner, hobbyist, and educator. The 5-piece electronic drum kit features high-impact single-zone rubber pads with natural feel and rebound, a kick pedal, hi-hat controller module, rack, and coded cabling for easy setup.

At the heart of the DTXPLORER is its compact trigger module, with a 16-bit/32-note polyphony tone generator that produces amazingly realistic, physically modeled voices. Choose from 214 drum and percussion sounds, 22 preset songs, and 32 preset drum kits covering rock, funk, jazz, reggae, and Latin styles. An array of onboard digital effects let you tweak your sound to your liking. Create and store up to 10 custom kits. The module also includes the Groove Check practice feature, a multifunction metronome, backlit LCD display, and simple plug-and-play connections. Auxiliary and MIDI inputs expand the kit's versatility, allowing you to connect to a PC or other device. The headphone output allows quiet practice.

32 Factory Kits, 10 User Kits, 214 Voices
The 32 factory-programmed kits give you a wide variety of kits that can be used in almost any musical situation. The 10 user kits allow you to build custom kits using any of the 214 voices for your particular needs as a musician.

Groove Check with Rhythm Gate
The DTXPL module has Yamaha's popular Groove Check function, but takes it to the next level as a learning tool. You can engage the Rhythm Gate so that when you play out of time the module will mute the drums until you get back in time with the click.

Multi Zone Inputs
The snare input will accept a three-zone pad (not included) giving you the head, rim shot, and cross stick sounds. The cymbal inputs will accept dual zone cymbals and allow cymbal choking.

Includes a Bass Drum Pedal
The DTXPL comes complete with an FP-6210 strap drive pedal so you don't have to purchase a pedal separately.

Unexpectedly Awesome

The sounds are beyond convincing, and the options are numerous. The kits are diverse, and the idea that the headphones isolate you in a world of drumming is magnificent. The Hi-hat pedal is odd, but functional, and would be the only element of this kit I would change. It works for so many things at an advanced level, but would ultimately be a dream for anyone that wants to explore drumming in an environment that requires noise regulation. If you have an apartment, and love to hit the drums, you NEED this drum kit.

I purchased this Yamaha DTXPLORER in Jan.2010, It is perfect for what I use it for and that is in our Church praise team. Connected it to the PA system and it delivers fantastic realistic acoustic drum sounds every time. This is without a doubt the best deal in electronic drums out there, hands down, trust Yamaha.

Gets the job done!

I bought this kit a few weeks ago and was instantly impressed! There are definitely enough drum kits and drum sounds already included for a starter. You can make even more kits with the customization feature. The only down-side to this product is that if you put the drums too close together, and you hit one of the drums hard enough, not only will you hear the drum of choice, but the other one as well. Another down-side is the hi hat pedal isnt that great. The bass drum pedal included is very fast though and i love it! Overall i don't think you can beat it for the price!

I love it

I bought my set two years ago and love it. Its not a high dollar set but it rocks for a home practice/fun set. I have mine hooked up to a cheap computer speaker system (two speakers and a bass speaker) and I play along to music on my computer through a cheap 5 speaker stereo suround system.

I've read other reviews that say the triggers break down but they must be beating the crap of of them because I've beaten mine over 10 million times (it tells how many hits when you power up) and they sound as good as the day I unpacked them.

They are really addictive when you have company, especially when you mess around with all the voices. I have definitely gotten my moneys worth out of it and then some.
