Yamaha DTX522K Electronic Drum Set

[@kimbybean001]

OMG. Fabulous review. You speak at the perfect pace and you touched on most of the important functions that people want to know about. The only thing I just can't seem to find out, is weather or not one can mute the drums on songs that are either on-board, or imported. THANK YOU!!!

[@PcPilot82]

kimbybean001 I know you can for the songs that come with it not sure on imported ones

[@patrickecraela8781]

I layered snare drums and kicks on my kit and increased the hi frequencies and it was magical. I put the sensitivity gain of the cymbals to 1 and increased the sustain and decreased the decay on the hi hat. VST quality sound no joking. This kit is amazing (only if you know how to do some tweaking with the sounds)

[@Drums4Life762]

Patrick Ecraela howd you do that?

[@n.6075]

Using the applestore app

[@lil_siamese714]

How do you layer sounds

[@creamb5801]

Tinkering with the module. Don't worry if you mess up you can always reset everything to default. Everything I found from the manual.

[@patrickecraela8781]

Bill Perri I think the samples used for the Yamaha are better than Roland but they trigger like shit. Roland has great triggering but crappy samples. I would say my kit is just as good as a TD-11. You can just use a VST program to have a different sound which is way better like Addictive Drums 2, Steven Slate drums, Ezdrummer 2 etc...

[@bobbobbyb4352]

This looks like a great tool for recording projects with the 3 zone triggers. Thanks!

[@izzle775]

Just ordered mine SO EXCITED

[@n.6075]

How is it 😱 ?

[@johnnycash8447]

is that NUTS or what? I love this thing. 5:42

[@hotdog3392]

Is there no Yamaha app for android??

[@harrisongdavis]

Alll that EWF music... that dude has some killer tracks on there.

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Nice one, "The world is your waveform." :D

[@artzvan-delet3521]

Can anyone recreate a shimmering effect from striking the closed hi hat and quickly release the pedal to finish a note? I have a DTX522 with DTX502 module and I can’t seem to recreate the sound. I called Yamaha tech support and no reply from them yet.

[@brianlampe75]

The splash sound should be a factory sound - you may need to play with sensitivity settings or something. The 502 manual says " Hi-hat splash sounds Depressing the hi-hat controller’s pedal and then immediately releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound. "

[@nathanhill4680]

Are there extra inputs so you can add more toms or cymbals?

[@RobAbfallDrums]

not seeing the DTX502 touch app, there is the 402 out there?

[@jackgoff4859]

Literally over half the video dedicated to an apple OS app that I won't be able to use, so is ALL of that functionality available through the module as well or do I not get to do those things if I don't have an Apple device?

[@SonicYM2612]

+John Smith Pretty sure everything's accessible on the module too, would be pretty pointless if it wasn't.

[@arvinsam5014]

I used to use the app for editing on my dtx 522k, but then my cable stopped working (you would need a printer cable to connect the drum to the device). For saving a few bucks, I stuck with using my module and it's very easy. They make the module settings LOOK difficult, but it's really easy.

[@SonicYM2612]

I own it now and can confirm that all functionality is accessible through the module. :)

[@phillipscc]

Awesome vid! what are the matte acoustic drums in the background? :D

[@ludoh8700]

yo i have this kit and the snare is WAY too quiet compared to everything else. I tried changing it in the settings but that didnt solve anything. any tips?

[@IanChoiAK]

from 1:50, is the sound pre-set? or did you customize? It sounds really nice and my DTX522K doesn't sound like it.

[@patrickcollier9393]

The audio was almost definitely edited to make it sound better.

[@burningcoals6529]

that is awesome

[@TadeoXD17]

🔴 Please help! How I import my own sounds? (Samples) ? 🔴

[@bblando65]

looking to buying this kit...can anyone tell me, to listen to it without head phones, can I just hook it up to my home stereo? What kind of cord is needed to hook it to my stereo if that's how you play it without headphones?

[@Antonio_p279]

How do u connect it to the drum to the device

[@jonnyspace50]

Sounds like he has to finish the video so he can finish his meth

[@Bends95]

jack dalisa lol

[@AnthonySilvestri]

Lmao best comment I've seen ever

[@hugorezende199]

Broo hahaha. Hilarious

[@DavidGallardo]

What is the name of the app?

[@drumsandcymbals8779]

Is there a snareless sound?

[@abasicillness]

can you use a double kick peddle ?

[@graytss]

richard spell It is wide enough to have one

[@1997mrrock]

Can this drum kit can be used as midi to record drums at garageband?

[@TheDigitalMD]

Too bad they are stuck with Apple IOS apps. C-

[@jeezy4764]

This guys is awesome lol

[@ssssparticus]

How do I connect my android to my dtx522 so i can play along with my music on my phone? If someone could respond with a url to what i need id be really grateful.

[@ssssparticus]

PS - I don't have the kit yet (it's being delivered). Just want to get what I need ahead of time for the phone connection.

[@zoroliam8364]

Hey mines being delivered. have you connected your android?

[@dkkrecords]

522 but the module is 502?....how does the app talk with a 522...(something that conveniently is overlooked...oh i get it you gotta buy the 502)....and if anyone who knows this software and hardware...is there anyway in the 522 i can get my 2nd tom to stop playing a cymbal ......and that if pull the cymbal back...then i simply lose cymbals all over the kit....any thoughts or even thoughts on where i can get the manual from.....the 502 does....but i was watching this because it was 522.........what gives.....

[@brianlampe75]

When you guy the dtx522 kit it comes with the 502 module. For the crosstalk - first make sure none of your toms, etc are touching each other. Check the cymball sensitivity. Check the crosstalk levels. Google yamahadtx forums or check facebook, there are a couple yamaha specific electronic drums groups.

[@englishwithmarkonline7130]

Does anyone know if I can use the XP80 snare with my DTX450K brain ?

[@creamb5801]

yeah but I don't recommend it since it won't make a difference to the playability.

[@HereIsmarcus]

I upgraded my kit to a roland TD-6 in the end.

[@berserker523]

Man I do hope all that is able to be done without the Apple device?!?

[@rich4896]

I swear this guy was with Roland...

[@Cr4nium13]

+Richard Chapple Yeah I think so too xD

[@rich4896]

Its a shame...He's lowered himself xD

[@zaydkhan7833]

This guy is in both which is weird.

[@carterloudermilk4786]

Hairdo over there can play drums

[@arupian666]

I think his wig was better when he was with Roland... maybe they paid a better salary...

[@19zorak]

he has heirpees?

[@kingtreble160]

I saw that at guitar center too!Its not really good

[@jadipeperzak4034]

+Drum Operation i played a 4000 euro electronic drum kit from roland , td25 or something , and i would rather play a beginners kit ( acoustic ) than that piece of crap

[@hybridmultimedia6436]

I have this. The module is not good enough for pro play. Trust me you need a upgrade the module. Also apps are trash for this. Last but not least is the high hat is trash feels terrible. However for price and just to play and have a kit or 2 maybe 3 sound kits you like Kool. Sounds are good but pro players will find its not enough.

[@myblowkneebologne9891]

Uhuh

[@juliancwcwcw]

The trick is not to go for one with gimmicks. Changing parts of a backing track by hitting a pad? Give yourself a couple practice sessions and you'll be over it.

[@mikestein1024]

I hate it when they always show you a cymbal choke come on its almost 2020 we have all seen the cymbal choke already

[@footlongrat2755]

Imagine having electronic drums...

[@19zorak]

I found this kit to be somewhat cartoonish

[@banger-fn6du]

worst hair piece ever
