This configuration is great for beginners learning to play or pros who want a great sounding practice kit.

The remote hi-hat controller pedal allows for “half-open” hi-hat sounds for expression usually found on much higher priced kits. At the heart of this powerful drum set is the new DTX400 module, packed with 169 of the best sounds from the DTX900/700/500 professional series and DTX-MULTI 12. You also get 10 educational training functions, practice songs, and you can import new songs or connect to a computer via USB.

Ten Professional Drum Sets in One Compact Electronic Drum Kit The DTX430K comes equipped with 10 professional drum kits made with world-famous sounds from throughout the history of drums including Yamaha’s legendary acoustic series. By utilizing voices from our professional DTX900/700/500 and DTX-MULTI 12, each kit has extremely high sound quality with "Accent Articulation" for dynamic instruments that change sound characteristics according to your hit strength.

But that’s not all - you can freely mix any of the 169 organic drum sounds to create customized kits that suit your style - even if your style is always changing. Try a heavy metal double bass kit one day then change into a dance kit the next, or keep your ten favorite kits of all time. You get a world of choices inside: 23 snares, 21 kicks, 36 toms, 31 cymbals, and 42 percussion instruments. With the included real bass drum pedal and pro hi-hat controller pedal, the DTX430K is really like having ten professional drum sets in one compact electronic drum kit.

Best of DTX sounds It takes skills to survive in the tribe. The training functions of the DTX430K have been expanded for drummers and enthusiasts of all levels. There are 10 onboard routines including warm ups, groove tools, and drumming games designed with Yamaha’s experience in Music Education to make practice fun and effective. Even if you never played drums before, the intuitive “Groove Tracker” will help you pick up the beat. All drummers can improve their groove with “Rhythm Gate”, or take on the rigorous “Fast Blast” challenge if you think you have the chops. There is even a "Voice Guidance" system that “speaks” the results of your sessions to encourage you on your rhythmic journey.

Playability and Feel from a Drum Company

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. For the kick drum you get a real Yamaha FP6110A bass drum pedal that provides smooth action and real feel for developing your foot technique to play an acoustic bass drum. The HH65 remote hi-hat controller pedal 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.

You can also add an extra cymbal with the PCY90AT that includes everything you need to play with dual crash cymbals.

With the USB-MIDI jack you can connect the DTX430K to your computer and control VSTi drum sounds or enjoy recording into DAW software such as Cubase.
