Yamaha DTX6 Mesh Head Electronic Drum Kit

Information

Yamaha presents the DTX6K5-M e-drum kit. The new flagship model of the DTX6 series is the first model in the series to feature mesh head drum pads. The 12-inch snare mesh pad and the three 10-inch mesh tom pads offer two zones for expressive play and Remo 2-ply heads. The DTX6K5-M also comes with two 135 crash pads, a 155 ride pad and a 135 hi hat pad on its own full hi-hat stand. All these pads are connected to the DTX-PRO module with its high-quality sampled acoustic drum sounds and electronic kits.

DTX6K5-M – the biggest of the series

The new Yamaha DTX6K5-M closes the gap between the DTX6 and DTX8 series by introducing mesh head drum pads to the smaller range. In addition to the four mesh heads, it features two 13-inch crash pads, a 15-inch ride pad (all three zone), a moving hi hat 13-inch pad on a real Yamaha hi-hat stand, and the DTX-PRO module with its outstanding sounds. Keeping all the advantages of the DTX6 series, but replacing the TCS pads with larger mesh heads, the DTX6K5-M is just what many drummers were waiting for.

Mesh heads for authentic feedback

As the smallest Yamaha e-drum kit with mesh heads, the DTX6K5-M required pads specifically developed for this kit. The set features one XP120L-M, which is 12 inches in diameter. It uses four sensors for two zones, offering uniquely accurate precision. The other three drum pads are XP100L-M 10-inch pads, also separated into two zones. All drum pads are equipped with Remo 2-ply mesh heads that grant an authentic feel with realistic rebound and minimum noise. With these pads, the DTX6K5-M is the perfect introduction to mesh heads.

Three cymbal pads and mechanical hi-hat

Like some other models in the DTX6 series, the Yamaha DTX6K5-M comes with three cymbal pads. Two of these pads are 13-inch, triple-zone rubber pads identical with the DTX6K3 and DTX6K2 models. The third cymbal pad with the DTX6K5-M is a larger 15-inch model, allowing for more flexibility in setup and play feel. The 13-inch hi-hat also maximises authenticity, employing a full mechanical hi-hat stand.

DTX-PRO module for realistic sounds

All the authenticity in terms of playing can only really be truly recognised when the kit sounds good – luckily, the Yamaha DTX6K5-M comes with the DTX-PRO module, loaded with outstandingly lifelike reproductions of acoustic kits and creatively designed electronic kits and fresh from its Version 2 update. All kits can be quickly adapted via the three Kit Modifier knobs for Ambience, Comp and Effect, leading to perfect results in no time. The high-power headphone amplifier makes sure the pristinely sampled sounds can shine on headphones. With the new DTX Touch App, all parameters can be adjusted and stored comfortably on a phone, tablet or computer.

Please note the bass drum pedal is NOT included with this kit.
