Good. Pleased it was useful.

Replacement? No. Remember this was launched in C19 era so everything had an extra few years where everything was at a standstill, as with all companies, and redevelopment times are much slower in almost all industries. The version 2 firmware has only just been released so you've got years to go yet!.

If you watch the video, it's all done in the editing software. You send all the footage from all the multiple cameras into the software, then when it is on the computer screen, you choose where you want the edits. Depending on the software, you 'cut' the 'film' when you want to change, and swap to another camera's footage. It might be an idea to look at some basic video editing software videos on RUclips to get an idea of how this is done.

Thats completely down to you. In SD3, you can choose where you want the audio to go to - the DTX or an audio interface for example. If you have it coming back to the DTX, just set up a silent kit, so the internal sounds dont play as well, and the SD3 sounds will come out of the DTX outputs. Or, connect a multi output audio interface to the computer, choose that as the output in SD3 (or whatever DAW you are running) and have as many outputs as you need.

Thats very precise - 98.7% not 98.8%?! Good! Please it has helped.

Its going to be as effective as any other microphone based system, so if you are having issues with conventional microphones, then yes, but if you are using conventional microphones now and just want to simplify it, then it will work. I cant answer 100% as I dont know what sort of volume levels you get to.

No problem. Thanks for watching Felix

Hi. I've replied to your email.

Not using a USB to MIDI cable as those are only capable of working between devices and computers, but if you used a Kenton USB MIDI Host or similar, then yes.

Hi. Yes it can. Go to Menu / Job / Training and import 10 midi files here (Import SMF) from USB. Then you can play along to them as though they were the tracks built into the Training function. To be honest though, very few devices like this use MIDI files now as everyone has phones with limitless audio tracks on. The Rec'n'share app allows you to remove the drums from almost any track (as long as it is on your phone) so the demand for MIDI files now is almost non existent.

thank you mr edgoose with my old dtx I play musical phrases such as glockenspield parts, chimes and others, all of this through a midi file assigned to a pad and configured to be able to play a note for each hit to pad. I have looked for the option to import smf files in the manual and I think that it would not serve the purpose of playing musical phrases. In your opinion, could you say that the new modules do not have this feature?

@@jozeales Makes sense. You can't do that on the new modules. What you can do instead (and which would give much better audio results) is trigger samples in the same way you trigger midi phrases. If you are triggering MIDI phrases then you are limited to the sounds in the GM sound module. If you trigger samples then you aren't limited in any way to sound quality. Create the samples on a DAW using the notes and sounds you need, export them as 16bit samples and import them into the module and trigger them in the same way.

Good! Pleased it helped.

Hi, yes, RC snares are DTXproX only. All RC kick and tom samples have a 'B' sample (look under Voice rather than Inst) which can be placed on Layer 'B' (or any). That is the resonance or ring sound. Then go to Kit Edit / Kit Modifiers / Other and then under Layers you can assign the Effect knob to turn up Layer B (or whichever you want). That is the resonance control. Now turning up the Effect knob will turn up the volume of the bottom head ring. This feature can also be used for some interesting layering effects as well, not just resonance. And, I'm really sorry, but the dead drums on the DTXpro is a mistake, and I'll re edit the vide to show this - they are on the DTXproX only. However, leave that with me (or email me).

@edruminfo Thank you Simon for a great answer!

@@joakimjanthe7679 Its not a great answer - I got something wrong in the original video! Sorry about that!

@@edruminfo No problem at all, we got plenty of stuff with this update and totally free!

No, you cant layer sounds in the EAD. The sounds in the EAD are there to reinforce the sound of the microphones, rather then be sounds in their own right. You can load samples though so you can always find the sounds you want and load them to be triggered.

Well you won't get all that in a DTXproX. What I'd do is get the DTXproX module, connect the modules via USB Trigger Link but keep all the pads plugged into the 900 (as you will only get 3 zone pads in the snare and cymbal inputs on the ProX). Then you can choose whether you use 900 voices or ProX voices or ANY combination of them through the individual outputs on both modules. In other words, say you want to use the drum voices from the ProX and the cymbals and everything else from the 900, just set up a kit on each which has no sound output for the pads you want from the OTHER module. Best of both worlds.

You wont get the three zone toms, but have a look at this as it shows a fully expanded DTXproX I did for a client. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/vk3yy21a4evhio6lnnhl3/Fully-Expanded-DTXproX.001.jpeg?rlkey=xxhu52kk11ldbve988o76squ4&dl=0

@@edruminfo that's cool, thank you!

Thank you

Yes. Every zone of every pad that is connected to the M12 can have up to 4 layers / samples / repeating notes.

🙂

@@timandrew1091 you’re correct. The reason being this video is just about getting the trigger settings correct. Nothing else.

No problem. Thanks for watching. Its even better now with the V2 firmware update!

Totally, but that's not to do with the M12 - that's to do with whatever DMX Controller you are using.

You also risk frying the output stage of the mixer as the EAD uses non standard phantom power through input B to power the sensor.

@edruminfo yes but It dosent backfeed, I checked with a meter, works like a charm.

The Rec'n'share app will allow you to use the track splitting function 10 times before the app needs connecting to a Yamaha device to be 'topped up' with another 10 times. This can be the EAD, or and current DTX model or a few other Yamaha amps and mixers. If you dont use the track splitting, you can carry on using the Rec'n'share app without any restrictions.

@edruminfo thanks! Have a nice day.

Good. Pleased I could help

No problem. Thanks for watching.

You can add music from anywhere AS LONG as you have a physical file of it. It wont work on streaming sites (it is against the licensing agreement) but if you have a file (wav, mp3 etc) of the track, it will work.

@@jameeldababneh4757 Exactly. The heads will work. The rims won’t.

@edruminfo but the snare input can read both piezo/piezo and piezo/switch right?

@@jameeldababneh4757 Correct

@@edruminfo thank you for your help🙏🏽 will this be the same case for the older dtx502 module or will the xp80 pad work as dual zone toms on it?

@ Hi. No problem. The same I’m afraid. If you want 3 zone toms you need to look at the DTX700 and DTX900 modules.

No problem. Pleased it helped

I don't quite get what you mean. Yes, you can use this to mic the whole kit. Yes, you can send it to the FOH mixer. Yes, you can listen to yourself as a monitor at the same time. I personally wouldn't go mono - you'll get a much better audio experience if you monitor in stereo, and the same for FOH but it depends if your PA is in stereo or mono I guess.

@ you got what I was trying to ask. Thank you for responding.

Have you done it? Sounds?

@@WilliamPerri-m9l sculpting through a pair of SSL SiX CH 500 series for additional punch, eq and comp and sending to a set of SPL TDx 500-Series Transient Designers to shorten or lengthen sustain then mixing on a summing mixer with my analog kit's OH mics running through some tasty verb fx for cohesion. Also capturing directly and it sounds pretty darned good on its own. The best part of the update is being able to connect the DTX Pro to my iPhone to use the app to tweak settings. Way faster than menu diving on the unit itself.

Hi. Yes it is, but what are you trying to achieve? You can use both simply by plugging the outputs of both devices into a mixer and doing it like that. Then you'll have the combined outputs going to the Front Of House. You can do more using MIDI, but there's no point unless you have a particular task you want to achieve which cant be achieved by the two products separately. If you can give me more of an idea about what you need to do, then I might be able to help.

You certainly can. Works great!

@@edruminfo can you make a short video? DTX is still being sold at Thomann! 😁

@@samsschool3639 You dont need a video. Just connect the USB 'To Host' on the M12 to the DTXpro or DTXproX USB 'To Device' with a USB cable. Turn on USB Trigger Link how I show in the video above. Thats it!

@@edruminfo Wow! thanks for the advice!

​@@edruminfoWorks perfectly!

Use a smaller drive, but also have you unzipped the file?

Yes eventually I realized that I hadn’t unzipped the file and it worked, thanks Simon

No. You load the update to a usb drive and put that in the module. No midi cable. No connecting your computer to the module. Just a usb drive.

Oh perfect then. Thanks Simon!

On DTXproX, yes, but DTXpro, no, I'm afraid. However, it's pretty easy to come up with a decent snares off sound using the internal sounds of the DTXpro.

@edruminfo do you start with a tom?

@@williamblake one of the Jazz toms (10 or 12" depending on what you need), yes, and layer it with a Timbale.

This is great updates, thank you Simon!

You need to find a friend with a computer and get it from them on a USB drive. Doesn't really work without a computer I'm afraid. If you can use your phone as a USB drive, that might work, but depends on the phone and the operating system.
