Product Description
With 12 velocity-responsive performance pads and expansive voice-engine features, the DTX-MULTI 12 enables you to shape and trigger sounds with precision and creativity. Choose from over 1,000 percussion voices drawn from Yamaha’s flagship synthesizer line, load your own WAV/AIFF samples via USB, configure pad assignments, and trigger personalized performances with ease.
Its advanced internal engine supports real-time patterns, phrase playback, MIDI/USB audio integration, and external pad expansion — making it suitable for live sets, hybrid drum rigs, studio work, or solo performance. Built to handle demanding use, the DTX-MULTI 12 packs this versatility into a light (approx. 3.3 kg) and robust unit that fits under a drum rack or stand.
