Yamaha DTX6K5-M Black Elektronisk trommesæt

DTX6K5-M Electronic Drum Kit — Studio Sound, Acoustic Feel

The Yamaha DTX6K5-M is a five-piece mesh electronic drum kit built around the DTX-PRO module. This kit pairs a 305 mm mesh snare, three 254 mm mesh toms, and a 381 mm positional-sensing ride with the RS6 rack hardware. The DTX6K5-M grows with the player — connect up to 14 pads via cable splitters as skills develop.

What Sets this instrument Apart

Unlike most electronic kits in this tier, the snare and tom pads use the same hoops and tunable lugs as Yamaha acoustic drums, so head tension can be dialed in like on a real shell. The 305 mm XP120L-M snare is a 3-Piezo mesh pad with dual-zone response, while the 381 mm PCY155 ride adds positional sensing.

DTX-PRO Module — 712 Voices and Kit Modifier Knobs

Three front-panel Kit Modifier knobs — Ambience, Compression, and Effect — dial in studio room sound, dynamic control, and creative effects in real time. Firmware V2.00 extends the Effect knob to blend shell resonances.

• Sounds: 712 sampled voices provide a broad acoustic, electronic, and world percussion library.
• Presets: 40 factory + up to 70 with V2 firmware — ready-to-play kits
• User Kits: 200 slots — room for custom configurations

Mesh Pads, Tri-Zone Cymbals, and RS6 Rack Hardware

The 305 mm XP120L-M dual-zone mesh snare and three 254 mm XP100L-M dual-zone mesh toms use 2-ply Remo mesh heads with Yamaha acoustic-style hoops and lugs. PCY135 crashes and PCY155 ride are tri-zone pads with positional sensing on the ride.

• Snare: 305 mm XP120L-M dual-zone mesh with Remo head — acoustic-style rebound
• Toms: 3 × 254 mm XP100L-M dual-zone mesh — tunable tension
• Cymbals: PCY135 crashes, PCY155 ride, RHH135 hi-hat — tri-zone with choke/mute

Built-In Training Tools, USB MIDI, and the DTX Touch App

The DTX-PRO module ships with 10 training functions. Measure Break mutes the metronome for a set number of bars, while Rhythm Gate only pronounces a note if the rhythm matches the click. The module connects over USB for MIDI recording into Cubase AI.

• Metronome features are programmable with Measure Break and Rhythm Gate to improve practice discipline.
• MIDI: USB to computer — pairs with included Cubase AI
• Apps: DTX Touch and Rec'n'Share — graphical editing and mobile recording

Who Should Choose This Kit

For intermediate and advancing drummers who want mesh-head feel, studio-quality sounds, and a kit that grows with their playing, this model is the right choice. Players transitioning from a practice pad will appreciate the larger 305 mm snare, 254 mm toms, and 381 mm ride. Home practitioners benefit from silent mesh heads, while gigging drummers get an expandable rig.

Yamaha DTX Series — Decades of Electronic Drum Development

Yamaha has been building electronic drum systems for decades, and the DTX-PRO module reflects that expertise. This kit is part of the DTX6 Series, which introduced Yamaha's first true mesh-head electronic kits in this price range — a response to long-standing demand for mesh rebound.
