< Main merit >


1. New development round 3 zone pad adoption. ' DTXPIIISP ' real 
play impression
' DTXPIIISP ' the aperture 15 inch round pad has supposed the ride 
cymbal mainly. As for the pad for the former ride cymbal, it was 
possible to produce the timbre which differs in the pad section and 
the edge, but ' DTXPIIISP ' with furthermore by the fact that the 
sensor is added to the cup section, 3 zones of the pad section, the 
edge and the cup section be able to assign sound respectively, the 
performance expression which is closer to the raw drum becomes 
possible. Furthermore when hitting, from the detailed legato 
execution where also return condition of feel and the stick quite is 
close to the raw drum, hits the phrase at a stroke smoothly, you can 
obtain the natural performance impression to powerful play. In 
addition being to be the round cymbal, it shakes and reproduces also 
feeling and hitting feeling to real. Approximately it is like -30dB 
and practice stand set silent characteristic by comparison with the 
acoustic drum.

 
2. Real high hat stand installing type high hat pad of stepping on 
feeling
' DTXPIIISP ' installing in the existing high hat stand, you can use 
the high hat pad, it is completely new type. It can build in the 
sensor of the high hat clutch and one somatotype in the round rubber 
pad of 13 inches, can adjust also the open condition of the top and 
the bottom. Also the weight which corresponds to the rod quite is 
close to the genuine high hat, there is no strange feeling in 
stepping on feeling. The stereo pad (the dual zone) being to be 
specification, it reproduces also performance and the foot splash 
execution which acquire high hat unique strength to real.

 
3. The tone generator module section where it can add various 
improvements
' DTXPIIISTD ' and ' DTXPIIISP ' together the sound source (drum 
trigger module: The right photograph) with the treble quality which 
centers cymbal sound the ripple mark and pre-setting voice were 
added, furthermore real the timbre was actualized. With ƒ"ƒ@[ƒ`ƒƒƒ‹ƒZƒb
ƒVƒ‡ƒ" function of all the 95 tunes which add new tune, by the fact 
that the CD player is connected to the AUX terminal, choosing 
favorite tune from stock CD, session (combination playing) also it 
is possible to do.

 

 
4. The silver color was adopted the rack system of new design
It is difficult to slide the pipe surface, the alumite processing to 
which the scar is difficult to be attached was administered. In 
addition because the joint part and the clamps of each pipe have 
done processing which cuts the groove, the pads are held securely, 
the performance which is stabilized is made possible. ' 
DTXPIIISTD ', from the former model ' DTXPIIISP ' corresponding to 
the increase of the cymbals, from, more, it improved stability to 
the compact. Concerning packing to assemble, because it is folding
