Our take on the Yamaha DTX6K5-M Electronic Drum Set

The DTX6K5-M is a five-piece electronic kit built around Yamaha's DTX-PRO sound module. Its pads are large for the class: a 12-inch snare, 10-inch toms, 13-inch crashes and a 15-inch ride, all with 2-ply mesh heads that give a quieter, more acoustic-like feel than rubber pads. The DTX-PRO module carries sounds recorded from real kits and adds practice tools and app support. It suits drummers who want a roomy, upgradeable kit for home practice and small gigs, and it competes with mid-range mesh kits from Roland and Alesis on pad size and module features rather than on portability.

Questions and answers

How does the DTX6K5-M differ from the DTX6K3-M?
The K5 uses larger pads, including a 12-inch snare and a 15-inch ride, where the K3 uses smaller ones. Both run the same DTX-PRO module.
Does it work with headphones?
Yes. A headphone output on the module lets you practice silently, which is the main reason buyers choose mesh pads.
Can I add more pads later?
The rack and module support additional components, so you can expand the kit as you progress.
What is included in the box?
The five-piece pad set, rack, DTX-PRO module and a hi-hat stand. A kick pedal and drum throne are not part of the set.
Is it good for a beginner?
It works for beginners, but its size and module depth suit players who plan to stay with drums and grow into the kit.
Can I record with it?
The module sends MIDI and audio, so you can record into a computer or interface.
