DTX-MULTI 12 Extra Content - Acoustic Kit and Electronic -

There are two downloads available depending on what kits or sounds you want. One covers acoustic drums (20 kits) and the other covers electronics (5 kits). The acoustic kits are Jazz Maple, Oak X, Vintage and Rock and the electronics are Classic Electro, Classic RX, Drum’n’Bass, Hip Hop and House.

IMPORTANT – Before you load the new content, back up all your existing DTX-MULTI 12 data using the Save All function as the new content will write itself over anything which is already saved into the User kits.

The acoustic kits each have five variations – a standard tuning at original pitch, a high tuning which sounds like smaller drum sizes, a lower tuning which sounds like larger drum sizes, and two mixed tunings where some instruments are tuned up and some tuned down which gives some interesting kit sounds.

The sounds are designed to be as realistic as possible with the drum sounds big and resonant and the cymbal sounds that ring for up to 20 seconds. The snare drum, toms and hi hats have left and right hand samples covering a single velocity which helps to avoid machine gunning and sound more natural. The sounds will automatically swap every time you hit the pads – don't worry about them, you just concentrate on your playing.

If you have problems with notes disappearing, and/or pads not triggering correctly, you probably need to look at your trigger settings. All these kits have been programmed to work perfectly using the ”U04 No Crosstalk” trigger setting which comes with the downloads. The audio examples were played using these setting and there were no problems at all or at any time during the programming.

The kits can be played straight from the pads of the DTX-MULTI 12, but if you have an external bass drum pad (KP65 for instance) and a hi hat controller (HH65 for instance) you can plug these into the external pad inputs and make the DTX-MULTI 12 into more of a drum kit. If you plug a triple zone pad (XP120SD for instance) into input 13, you can have the snare head, rim shot and cross stick all on one pad. The sounds on the external pads are identical to those on the internal pads. Indeed, if you edit the internal pad sounds, the sounds will change on the external pads too.
