Yamaha has been making drums for over 45 years, so we know that playability is important to all drummers. Using experience gained from developing the popular DTX-PAD we have redesigned the drum pads of the DTX400 series to provide a natural response, solid durability and excellent stick feel. The new pads use a rubber surface so your sticks will not slide around on the head, and you can practice single, double and triple stroke techniques for use on a set of acoustic drums. The new TP70S (included with DTX450K) is a 3-zone snare pad that lets you play open and closed rim-shots for even more snare expression and is an available as an optional upgrade for DTX430K/DTX400K. For the kick drum you get a real Yamaha FP6110A bass drum pedal (included with DTX450K/DTX430K) that provides smooth action and real feel for developing your foot technique to play an acoustic bass drum. The HH65 remote hi-hat controller (included with DTX450K/DTX430K) lets you to play the hi-hat with more expression, allowing not just open and closed but also half-open, pedal and splash hi-hat sounds. All of these features from a leading drum company are there to help you become a really great drummer.

As you carve your path into the drummer tribe you can feel confident that your DTX450K can be upgraded and expanded to match your ambition. Upgrade your snare drum to a DTX-PAD from our professional series with the XP80 3-zone pad. The DTX-PAD was designed with input from Yamaha drum artists for playability, feel and quietness.
