January 2009 :

The newest kit in the DTX series, the DTXPLORER now puts Yamaha’s compelling electronic drum technology seen on the DTXPRESS III and DTXTREME within reach of the beginning eDrummer.

This 5-piece kit includes high-impact rubber pads with natural feel and rebound, and comes mounted on a sturdy folding ribbed rack. For added convenience, the kit also features an FP-6110 bass drum pedal and a coded cabling snake for quick and easy setup.

You can connect CD player to the module via the AUX IN, and a PC or Mac can be connected via the MIDI ports. The DTXPLORER module can even be used with a traditional acoustic drum kit as a stand-alone trigger module.

While the DTXPLORER doesn’t have a User Song facility for loading and storing new beats internally, you can connect to a computer DAW like Cubase LE and trigger a multi-instrument sequence using the brain’s16-part sound capability.

We will soon be offering some custom practice grooves for use with your DTXPLORER. For now please check out some of the demos, plus visit our store to audition our MIDI Sample libraries, which are great songwriting collections of basslines, keyboard, and guitar, and other parts.
