Yamaha DTX452K Review And Playthrough

[@dr3iko]

Just purchased mine and i have to admit that for 544 euros (well, given the current prices and inflation) it really is the sweetspot between very nice quality of materials, decent sounds, capabilities and cost. Tried out the roland 07dmk and alesis nitro and the yamaha one felt more robust than either of them (roland is 200 euros + kick pedal more expensive). Was also worried about the rubber parts cause everyone praises mesh heads, but to me the mesh ones (at this price range) felt too bouncy. Pad size is really ok, yeah bigger could be better but i am really ok with the 8" ones. Rack is really steady, no issues whatsoever, and the height is perfect for an average sized person (i am 180cm tall with long legs and have no issues). Kit is really responsive with very nice trigger accuracy. I am only getting used to the HH pedal , doesnt really feel as a standard Hi Hat stand feels but that s to be expected. It also works for semi-closed and not only as open or closed. Hope i have been of help :)

Dude so much detail! This is excellent. I wish others went into nearly as much detail when I'm reviewing other things.

[@konstantinospizanias4508]

Dear Justin hello from Athens Greece! I bought this drum set used for about 300$ and I have to say that I’m really impressed how much a value for money this is. This is not my first electronic drum kit but it is definitely the most money worth it compare to the other ones I had. It has its cons like you mentioned in your review but compared to the pros it actually turns out a winner. Very descent sounds and a very well built drum module that when used with the app makes it a really powerful module. Not so many drum sounds but a lot of adjustments you can make and also a very useful extra app from Yamaha, called Rec’n’Share which lets you record and take video at the same time and also adjust mixing and timing. I’m very satisfied overall because it is a great practice kit that it is really worth buying it if you find it at a great used condition. I truly recommend it. And also I have to mention that despite the fact that the kit has rubber pads they have a great feel when played!! And it is also one of the most quiet kits I’ve ever played. Keep up the good work Justin!! Regards, Kostas!

[@markhedges1194]

Loved your explanation of the various kits! The break down of info you gave is very telling, and helpful for choosing the right kit. Thank you for taking the time to explain each quirk and variation between the different manufacturers kits as well!

[@dropbearattack]

The most impressive thing was Justin getting all of the little boxes to fit back into the big one, that almost never happens! Good luck getting all the components back in.

[@Fucklesticks]

YES, i looked at the mess i had created after unboxing and said "f·ck it, if it breaks i'll just buy another one"

[@andriimotsyk3018]

It works as an audio interface. So if you want to record something - just send the sound perfectly well via USB. It excludes metronome sound, and also you can hear sound from computer or DAW. The only concern - you cannot change the volume of computer audio. Have bought the 452 month ago for 600 bucks (black friday). Happy that i got Yamaha instead of Alesis that seemed more reasonable taking price into advance. Drums are very fun things to play. Build quality is superb, as most times from Yamaha. Never thought iI would compose patterns I play clicking on any midi controller.

[@batangkankaloo1055]

I have same kit. I am strugling to record while im playing with some youtube music? Module only 1 aux and one output. Any suggestion? Thanks

[@michaelbryce1345]

concise, clear, thorough review - everything I wanted to know!

[@joshknowlton2477]

Great review! I purchased the 402k, basic model from Guitar Center USED for $349, the condition was LIKE NEW. Upgraded with the Yamaha Kick Tower (sold separately on Amazon for $65). This was my first electric drum set. I use a Simmons 200A amp. I think the kit sounds are good, I really only use the Maple Kit set up. The APP is really what sold me on this. The ability to customize your sounds on your phone is great. Haven’t dived into the training modes yet. When I play along with my iTunes songs the sound levels are mixed nicely by the module. I use my iPhone 8 Plus for this. Be aware you will need to buy a USB A to B cable, then you need to plug that into an Apple USB Camera to Lighting adapter! You need this for the app to work. I’m happy with it. I like the all rubber pads for sound reasons. I suggest buying Vic Firth Headphone, or a good quality pair of headphones, I played with average priced headphones and it sounded horrible! I think it looks good, basic black, minimal, doesn’t take up any space. I hung my stick bag on the Tom rack bar and put all my extra cables and adapters.

[@Fucklesticks]

The app thing is a NIGHTMARE to get working when your phone's usb port is worn out. Of course it's not the module nor the app's fault, but they should have included bluetooth to avoid this issue.

[@stevo946]

I’ve had the 452k for 3 days. The rubber pads feel satisfying. I like the module and the fact I can edit pretty much everything without the app - the manual has good information. The training stuff is neat. The kick tower is okay - nothing to write home about. I had the issue with the double kick too so I put the single kick back on for now. The hi hat controller feel decent - the construction feels solid. The rack feels sturdy - I switched it around to play left handed. I would have liked to see Bluetooth to connect the app and music. For what it is the kit is pretty fun to play and I’m looking forward to trying out the app and using USB.

[@Adam-Z96]

Hi. How about the drum pads? Is the quality good? I want to know if the components inside won't break after some months of playing.

[@Fucklesticks]

@@Adam-Z96 Should be good. They put these in the higher end DTX6k-x aswell so. I've had mine for about 3 months so i can't really tell you much.

[@johnkyle2205]

@@FucklesticksDo you need an amp to play through it, or can you just plug in headphones? Also, do you know if there's an aux input so that I can connect my phone or computer or whatever, and play along to songs?

Love the summary at 0:10. What a cool feature. Thanks for the honest review.

[@stuartpowell255]

Bought one of these this week 2nd hand from a guy who bought it in April during lockdown and had given up, it’s basically as new and I got it for under half price. I’m a guitar player but fancied having a go at drums and this seemed like a cheap way to give it a go.

[@tunadoomshitpost]

yo man wanna sell it to me?

[@tunadoomshitpost]

oh NVM i thought you gave up

[@JaathavedaMV]

i bought the dtx402k a few weeks back and this is my first drum kit ive owned so please forgive my ignorance if im not sure/clear about a few of the details. pro: 1)i really like the sounds for the price range(im a student and on a tight budget). 2)the module is really user friendly and so is the app ive not dug deep in but as far as ive seen it is highly and totally customisable. 3)the pads feel really good(even though they are rubber pads...tight budget hence rubber pads) cons: 1)really wish there was multiple zones on the snare for the 402k model. 2)the setup can be sometimes annoying like in the video(not as adjustable as id like it to be) 3)1 audio output.(this can be overcome by irig(works perfectly with iphone though) for recording and listening) really clear and crisp review, to the point! ps:ill try and explain what headphones i use/my recording setup if anyone is interested

[@CBonline101]

Can you please check if Yamaha song beats app(iOS only) works with this module.

[@RettaTheRipper]

When I packed up my son's DTX450K there was actually a diagram on the side of the box that showed how to pack it up. It's like tetris, really.

[@Gizmoly]

Hi, one of your criticisms is that the module has only one stereo out and so you cannot listen to headphones and also have it run into a speaker. That problem can easily be solved by getting a cheap headphone splitter jack from Amazon or somewhere.

[@veteran_of_pain]

I DO appreciate this video bro. I just purchased this set (452K I believe) and haven't "much" issues with it besides the drum pads being......cheap made and "tiny" feeling, just like the rack. Sound on the other hand is quite nice hooked up through a Peavey 5150 Combo guitar amp on clean. The drum/tom pads should be at least 9-10 inches across, and the snare could be much bigger in my opinion as well. The 3 part snare is cool, but a little "cramped" if you will. I paid 899.99 (which included yamaha drum stool and yamaha headphones at my local Long and McQuaid). Great content man!

[@johnyjosh3529]

Which do u prefer yamaha or Roland

[@stephenpetrikowski]

I would never buy a new entry level kit. I've seen the dtx522 as low as $400 once and multiple times for $500 on the second hand market. I actually bought a dtx502 drum module for $110 once. I'm hoping to see new mid range and flagship model kits from yamaha sometime. It's been long enough.

[@65Drums]

I agree. Used is the only way to go with edrums. The prices are just ludicrously high. And I hope yamaha releases a new flagship

[@n.michaelgiebink5563]

I think so many other companies were releasing flagships (Roland, Alesis, Pearl, Simmons hobbling back, DW/Gewa, Korg) that there was too much noise. Yamaha chose to innovate rather than arm wrestle with the EAD10. I'm sure these other companies are committed to their models for a few more years. Yamaha can release a flagship in that time that capitalizes on the shortcomings of the others. We all know Roland has an expansion and a couple -kvxsxyAD etc models yet. Alesis has to prove it's durability. Is this DW thing really happening? Are Pearl and Korg making the right move? Their hands are shown. Yamaha is in position to do well now. Anyway, I agree, I wish Yamaha had a little mercy to put a silicon snare pad on these kits.

[@JiTiAr35]

Yeah. It doesn't make any sense at all when this only costs US$100 less than DTX522K.

[@jayyang6799]

Probably the best review I’ve ever seen

[@brennanb2251]

Hey Man, Thank you so much this video was a ton of help! I never leave comments but I felt you really killed this so, thank you

[@ajg8600]

1:32 i guess you could say we felt that fill "coming in the air tonight" HAHAHAHA get it

[@yunarukami14]

@Rohan Reed Basically, that drum fill sounds like the drum fill from the song “In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins. The lyrics also goes like, “Can you feel it coming in the air tonight?” Just replace the “feel” with “fill”.

[@IIIxwaveIII]

the alesis surge was 399$ on amazon for about 3 days 2 months ago or so. I thought it was a permanent drop, I stalled, and missed it. now I cry every night...

[@sk2koby]

Problem I have is the spacing between the snare pad and hi hat. You are limited in the adjustment of the pad and cymbal. I cannot use traditional grip without hitting the hi hat with the butt end of the left hand stick going from snare to mounted Tom.

[@wlwomack7794]

I purchased the DTX 450 K 2 years ago and I’ve never had a breakdown of any of the components.I put a splitter on the output to record(there is an app for that, too) the biggest con for me is with the add on cymbal, it runs through the kick drum tower. When you hit the add on crash with kick drum accent, you don’t hear the cymbal because of the cymbal running through the kick drum. You’ve mentioned the pad diameter issue. Otherwise the kit is decent. Maybe a little overpriced.

[@RamyAmr.m]

I live in Egypt where the Alesis Nitro Max sells for a whopping $803. The Yamaha DTX452K sells for $845 which is closer to the original $700 price tag. That being said, should I go with the Yamaha or are the mesh heads and bigger snare worth?

[@IIIxwaveIII]

note that the TD-1DMK does not come with a kick pedal... so price does not reflect a complete system

[@mr.klunee4103]

I recognize some of those bass drum sounds as they are the same as in my yamaha DD-20 I got in 2007. I wish Yamaha would make their "new" sound modules with new sounds.

What is your opinion of the 450k? is it worth $100 in 2022?? Thanks for any help you can give me.

[@DmytroFranchuk]

Thanks for the video. I got a question about the competition: in my country Yamaha DTX452K cost around 680 USD, while Alesis Nitro and Surge are overpriced and cost 550 and 800 USD and Roland isn't available at all. What would you recommend based on that?

[@Fucklesticks]

Look for the 432k, it's cheaper and it's only missing the rimshot ability. I will say though, i love being able to play rimshots on my 452k so i guess it's up to your style.

[@dylanparker50]

Ive had this kit for just over a year, it does the job, how ever ive had to replace the kick pad 3 times (lucky i got a 2 year warranty). The first time i had to replace it was my fault because i thrashed it with a double kick Pedal :( The other two times it just crapped out on me, i pulled the kick pad apart and noticed the trigger had disconnected from the pad itself. Ive resorted to using the “metal” preset kit 24/7 as i put the hi-hat clutch pedal where my kick pedal would go and use that as a bass drum. I mostly play thrash metal any ways so it works out...kinda.It is pretty annoying though because i paid $1500 for it (i live in New Zealand) however before it broke it was very decent, i still play it every day and have fun.

If I'm just now deciding to learn drums, would this be the better choice over an Alesis Surge? I really like the look of the surge and the fact it is touted for being one of the quietest.. but judging based on comments, I should wait some time for them to improve? I'm not a pro, so the sound differences might not really be worth the extra $200 🤔

[@LucasFerreira-hy4sn]

I believe it is possible to record from the app while you use the output with a headphone

[@Strongbear2013]

When you say the pads don't have a rim zone on them, does that mean that it would make it harder to play something like a Bossa Nova beat where it seems you're hitting the drumstick across the rim? I am not sure if that is correct or not, because I don't play drums but am looking into getting a kit to learn on and definitely want to eventually get into Latin rhythms.

I had the mid tier one for quite a while now. It does the job but it can get tiring and I just hate it now. Using it with addictive drums 2 makes it work a bit better but the rubber pads kill this kit. I would save up a bit more and get a Roland to be honest.

[@andrer3764]

Is the 452 worth it over the 432 due to the 3 zone?? Notice you’re recommending 432 but it only has a 1 zone snare

[@OggyBleacher]

I think the hint is if you really want a 3 zone snare then you are advanced enough that this shouldn't be the price range to look in. These are for beginner/hobbyist/experimenting/curious. So, a single zone rubber snare doesn't bother me since I'm pretty happy if my sticks don't collide in mid air. Rim shots and cross sticking are not a big priority. The DTXmania game doesn't even use multi-zone snare sounds. If I needed 3 zone snare I would probably not want rubber pads and this really small rack. I think these 402 series look nice in pictures but people should keep their expectations low before they buy them. They are simple midi triggers. They aren't fancy. They are good for games and messing around. They are disposable consumer electronics. My biggest complaints with the 400 and 402 series is the rubber pads actually produce such a loud noise when struck that I have to turn the volume up on the monitor to be louder than the stick hitting the rubber. It would drive someone nuts to hear that monotone tap sound without music if I used headphones. They would probably prefer to hear real drums, so the silence benefit is not completely true. Maybe if you are in a basement then no one can hear the pad tap, so that would work. But if they are in the other room, they will definitely hear the pad tap. The second complaint is that they barely accommodate a 6' tall person. Just barely. and if I want to raise just the hi hat, I'm out of luck. There is no way to raise it a few inches. And moving the snare arm also moves the hi hat and vice versa. The two are connected. And why use a square head acoustic drum tuning key as the nut driver for an e-kit? These exclusive square screws suck. The dude is correct, they are worth $300, which is what I paid. Nothing in my price range of $300 would be better, so these are as good as it gets. I don't have room for a bigger set so this was my only choice and it's completely adequate. But the 400 series is discontinued years ago and the 402 series will be discontinued very shortly. keep that in mind. The shelf life and support for these kits is short.

Hey Justin i have dtx432k can i change my snare to yamaha xp100sd or yamaha xp80?

Can the kick drum handle double pedal?

[@anthonypalmer2319]

Yes I've got the same kick tower and used it with my double pedal. The thing is it isn't without potential problems as the beaters have to be off centre and they share one sensor so the triggering isn't always consistent. It would do for practice in my opinion.

So many missing features in the new 400 series kits... and it somehow manages to sound WORSE than the dtxplorer. And it was only $199 used at guitar center.

hey! i enjoy your content and now i have a question: I'm moving out of my parents house and can't take my acoustic set with me. so i'm planing on buying the roland TD-50KV. of course i can't afford it right now, so i thought i might get me a cheaper one for around 1000 bucks in the meantime. my question is: what (brand) set would you recommend? PS: i watched your videos on sets in different price ranges. should i buy a roland set now, because i want to buy the td50 later anyways or does the brand not mater? (i'd like to combine some parts eventually, if thats even possible and i thought i'd be easier if all parts were of the same making) EDIT: i think i like mesh better than rubber. keep up the good work and thanks sorry for bad spanish.
