"Most of the changes to the new DTX502 series need to be heard and felt to be fully appreciated. There's a lot more than meets the eye involved with this upgrade, and drummers will be impressed when they get behind these new kits."
The new DTX502 module has a streamlined front panel layout and features plug and play USB connectivity to a computer.
The new design allows the DTX502 to be mounted to acoustic drum hardware using a standard multi-clamp for use in a hybrid acoustic-electronic drum set.
The range also includes new training and educational functions for drummers to improve their playing at any skill level. With eight practice routines that help develop rhythmic timing, pad accuracy and drumming endurance, the system calculates a score after each session so that drummers can track their progress.
DTX522K features
The DTX522K, the most affordable model in the series, includes the three-zone XP80 8 inch DTX-PAD snare and three newly designed TP70 7.5 inch tom pads. The new TP70 pad is softer and quieter, yet more expressive than the previous model. The kit comes with three-zone, choke-able ride and crash cymbals, and boasts a three-zone hi-hat pad - a first in electronic drumming. The manufacturer's suggested retail price is $1,507.
DTX532K features
The next kit in the line-up, the DTX532K, uses the same drum pads and rack system as the DTX522K but features an upgraded hi-hat and two large PCY135 13 inch three-zone choke-able cymbal pads. The RHH135 vertical motion hi-hat pad, which mounts to the included Yamaha HS650A hi-hat stand, provides a setup that more closely matches an acoustic kit. The manufacturer's suggested retail price is $1,732.
DTX562K features
The flagship model is the DTX562K, which includes the 13 inch cymbals and real hi-hat pad and upgrades the toms to an all-DTX-PAD configuration with three XP70 7 inch pads. The manufacturer's suggested retail price is $2,637.
