For years, Yamaha DTXPRESS drums have set a standard in performance and value. This new, upgraded version features new audio waveforms for ultra-realistic sounds, with a strong concentration on acoustic cymbals. Upgraded soft rubber pads offer drummers more performance comfort, better feel, and natural rebound.
Its new gray metallic rack will hide chips and scratches down the road. The DTXPRESS III arrives with the rack fully assembled and all cables coded on both ends, so you can simply fold out the support legs and cymbal arms for a quick and easy setup.
Features include more than 1,000 sounds, 128 GM voices, 80 drum kits, 127 songs, an integrated 2-track sequencer, 3-zone snare pad, the Groove Check practice feature and easy-view backlit display. The DTXPRESS III lets you practice and perform in complete privacy using headphones, and will connect directly to a PC or Mac via MIDI or its TO HOST connection. Just add your favorite throne and kick pedal (not included).
48 Factory and 32 User Kits
The wide variety of pre set drum kits gives you a kit styled for virtually any musical situation. There are kits programmed for Rock, Jazz, Latin, and special effects kits great for sound tracks or radio and TV jingles. For special situations, there are 32 user programmable kits that you can program using any of the 990 drum and percussion voices. Plug in headphones and practice any time of the day or evening.
Play along with the 95 pre set songs or your favorite music
There are 95 songs covering many musical styles that are great for developing your ability to play in any musical situation. Play along with the pre recorded drum track, or mute the drums and play along with the rhythm and melody tracks. This is a great tool for developing your groove and the nuances of playing different musical styles. You can plug your MP3 or CD player into the auxiliary input and play along with your favorite pre recorded music. You can also record your playing with the internal sequencer to analyze your playing.
Snake Cable
The DXPIII kit comes with a stereo snake cable with labeled jacks. This makes it easier to hook everything up out of the box, and faster to hook it all up again if you are moving the kit to gigs or recording sessions.
Folds up for compact storage
The DXPIII kit is mounted on a compact drum rack so it won't take up a lot of space when you are playing. When not in use the kit folds flat for storage in a closet without having to disassemble the rack or remove the pads.
Groove Check
Engage the Groove Check feature while using the click or while playing a song and DXPIII will show your beat placement accuracy. It indicates if you are ahead of, behind, or right on the beat and shows any fluctuation in your playing accuracy.
Three Zone Snare Pad
The TP65S three zone pad gives you the snare, rim shot, and cross stick sound all from the same pad. This allows for a performance that is very much like playing on an acoustic snare drum.
MIDI IN/OUT, TO Host Jacks
You can access the 125 General MIDI voices from a controller or transmit other MIDI information between the DXPIII and any other MIDI device via the MIDI IN/OUT. You can transmit MIDI data to and from your computer via the TO HOST jack to store kits or sequences on your computer.
