Choose a Drum Kit and Start Playing!
Your Yamaha DTX contains 928 drum and percussion sounds. Drum
and percussion sounds make up a drum kit (drum voice) and the drum
kits are categorized by musical style. There are 64 drum kits: 32
preset drum kits and 32 user drum kits which enable you to enjoy
performances of various musical styles just by selecting a kit. You can
create your own drum kit (user drum kit) from scratch. (P.32)
