The DTXPLORER’s Main FeaturesMain Features

The DTXPLORER is equipped with a high-quality 32-polyphony tone generator that produces realistic voices, a
high-performance metronome, and a variety of songs, all built into a compact design.
The DTXPLORER is a versatile instrument that can be used in a variety of situations such as live performance,
personal practice, and much more.

■ Drum Trigger Function

• Built into the unit are nine trigger input jacks and a hi-hat controller jack. Jacks that are compatible with rim
switch and 3-zone trigger equipped pads are also supplied. In addition to trigger pad compatibility, the unit can
also be used with devices such as Yamaha’s DT20 Drum Triggers, etc.

• Setup data such as pad trigger input type, sensitivity settings, etc., are stored in four preset patterns. This lets you
simply choose the system that meets your playing needs. The unit also provides a pattern for user memory in
which you can create and store your own custom settings for pads or drum triggers.

• Also included in the unit are 32 preset drum kits. Acoustic drum kit types cov er a range of genres from rock, funk,
jazz, reggae, Latin percussion, etc. and are readily available for use.
There are also 10 user memory kits in which you can freely mix, match and edit a variety of drum/percussion
voices to create your own original drum kits.

■ Tone Generator

• The DTXPLORER is equipped with a high-quality, 16-bit AWM2 (PCM) tone generator with 32 v oice polyphony.

• Voices include 192 drum and percussion voices. Voices cover a wide range of sounds such as highly realistic
acoustic sounds, unique electronic percussion sounds, effect sounds, and much more.

• Also featured is the same internal digital reverb section that is found in Y amaha’s MU series of GM/XG compat­ible tone generators.

■ High Performance Metronome

• The sound for each note value is adjustable. Each note value can be assigned its own separate click voice and
pitch. You can also set a timer that will determine when the metronome stops and set breaks which how many
measures the metronome will play and then be muted.

• The DTXPLORER also features a “Tap” function that lets you set the tempo for the metronome or song by
tapping in tempo on a pad to any tempo you like.

■ Preset Songs

• The sequencer contains 22 preset songs (two demo songs plus 20 pattern songs). Two functions that make the
DTXPLORER great for practice are the Bass Solo Function—which lets you play along with the song’s bass part
only—and the Drum Mute Function—which mutes a specific drum part.

■ Groove Check Function

• The Groove Check Function is a great training aid that will let you know how accur ate your playing is and check
your consistency in dynamics (output level). This function is an e xcellent aid for those who want to incr ease their
precision in playing.

■ Interface

• A MIDI OUT jack on the rear panel lets you play sounds from an external tone generator or synchronize the
metronome with an external sequencer.

• An A UX IN (Auxiliary In) jack lets you plug in an e xternal audio de vice such as a CD player, MD player, etc., and
play along.

• A headphones jack is also included.

About MIDI

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a world standard that
provides a means to connect instruments and computers and allow
them to transmit and receive performance and other data. This stan­dard allows computers and instruments of different makers and types
to communicate.

Always use a standard MIDI cable when connecting de­vices. Also, use a MIDI cable that is not more than 15m in
length. Using a longer cable may result in irregular opera­tion and other problems.

■ Connecting the Power Supply

A special power source adaptor supplies power
to the DTXPLORER.

Make sure the power is switched OFF and connect the supplied
power adaptor to the DC IN jack on the rear panel.
To prevent the cord from becoming unplugged, wrap the cord
around the cord hook and secure.

WARNING

Make sure that the power adaptor’s cord is not bent
at an acute angle when wrapping the cord onto the
hook. Such a situation can result in a dama ged power
cord or fire.

WARNING

Please use the supplied power adaptor. The use of
any other power source may cause irregular opera­tion or damage to the device.
Also, when the DTXPLORER is not to be used for a
long period of time, please unplug the power adaptor.

Before switching the power ON.

• To protect the speakers, headphones and the
DTXPLORER from damage, fully r otate the PO WER/
VOL knob to the left (minimum volume) before
switching the power ON.

• Make sure the power is switched OFF on all exter ­nal devices connected to the DTXPLORER. After
the DTXPLORER’s power is switched ON, switch
the other device’s power ON.

cursor) the item you want to set. When the page only contains
a single item, pressing the [<]/[>] buttons will select the next
or previous page.

* The “‚” mark on the lower right side of the display indicates

that a succeeding page exists. Lik e wise, the “–” mark on the
lower left side of the display indicates a previous page ex­ists.

Now use the Master Equalizer (2-band shelving type) setting
to change the sound quality.
The “Lo=” value is flashing. To increase low frequency em­phasis, rotate the jog dial to adjust the value (low frequency
gain: +0dB to +12dB).

UTIL4 MasterEQ
–Lo=+ 4 Hi=+ 8 ‚

Similarly, press the [>] button to flash the “Hi=” value, then
rotate the jog dial to adjust the high frequency gain (+0dB to
+12dB).

You can also adjust or set the individual pad voices, vol­ume, tuning, reverb type/level, and other settings that f ine­tune the DTXPLORER. (P. 20)

Adjusting the Hi-Hat

Hi-hat adjustment is used to determine the point at which
the hi-hat closes when the hi-hat pedal (foot controller) is
pressed.
You can also set the ease at which foot splashes are pro­duced.

* This setting is only valid when a foot controller is connected

to the HI HAT CONTROL jack. The setting has no effect on
a foot controller connected to any other jack.

Procedure

1.

Press the [SHIFT] + [SAVE/ENT] buttons to view
the following page (page 1 in the Utility Mode).
Use this display to adjust the hi-hat.

UTIL1 Hi-hat
HHofs= 0 T= 0‚

2.

To set the point at which the hi-hat closes, flash the
“HHofs=” value then use the jog dial to adjust the
value.
The setting has a range of –32 to 0 to +32. Smaller
values produce a shallower closing point.

UTIL1 Hi-hat
HHofs=-12 T= 0‚

To set the ease at which foot splashes are produced,
flash the “T=” value then use the jog dial to adjust
the value.
The setting has a range of 0 to 127. Larger values
make foot splashes that are long and easier to pro­duce.

* Too high a value will makes foot splashes too easy to

produce, resulting in the continuous production of foot
splashes when the pedal is held down continuously.

UTIL1 Hi-hat
HHofs=-12 T= 20‚

Trigger Setup Edit

Trigger Setup Edit contains various settings related to trigger input signals received from the
pads or trigger sensors that are connected to the Trigger Input jacks. It lets you make adjust­ments so that the DTXPLORER can better deal with these signals.
If you are using a drum trigger other than those that came with the DTXPLORER set, it will be
necessary to adjust the sensitivity or assign voices to the individual trigger inputs. This section
also has settings that help prevent cross talk and double triggers.

Selecting the Trigger Setup

The DTXPLORER includes four different preset types (No. 1 to 4)
in the Trigger Setup. No. 1 contains data for a basic setup that uses
the pads that came with the DTXPLORER connected to the unit’s
Trigger Input jacks as labeled on the rear panel (1SNARE, etc.). When
shipped from the factory, Trigger Setup No. 1 is already selected.
No. 2 to 4 also contain setup data designed for use with the
DTXPLORER’s accompan ying pads. Settings related to sensitivity
and expression vary in these presets. No. 5 is used for saving a cus­tom setup. Refer to the [Editing the Trigger Setup] section described
in the next section for more information on creating a custom setup.
Select the Trigger Setup that fits your playing style best. Use the
procedure described below to select the Trigger Setup you want to
use.

zone compatible pad such as the TP65S, etc., if it is connected
to the 1 SNARE input.

When connected to the 5 RIDE or 6 CRASH jacks, the rim will
produce only one voice. For produc­ing closed rim shots, the [TP1/
SnrA] has a high sensitivity setting
on rim 1, while the [TP1/SnrB] has
a high sensitivity setting on rim 2.
Left and right rim sensitivity is set
at the same level for [TP1/Tom]. If
the pad is connected to any other
input, the rim voice will not be pro­duced and the pad will only produce
one voice.

Rim 2

Rim 1

*2 Rim1 and rim2 sounds on the [TP1/SnrB] are reversed from

those on [TP1/SnrA]. This provides left-handed drummers with
a proper setting when using a left-handed setting.

*3 When a stereo pad such as the TP80S is connected to the 1

SNARE input, [TP2-A] will produce the sound that is assigned
to rim 1, and [TP2-B] will produce the sound assigned to rim 2.
(Refer to P. 20)

*4 When an RHP series stereo pad is used, connect the pad to

Input 8/9 and set the pad type in Input 8 to [RHP pad] and the
pad type in Input 9 to [RHP rim].

*5 To use the BP80 as a stereo pad, connect the pad to Input 8/9.

TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)

Gain [Range] 0 to 99

Adjusts the input gain (sensitivity) for the input jack shown in the
upper half of the display.
Assigning a larger value lets a smaller input level from the pad
create sound.

* This value will be automatically set after the appropriate pad

type is set in [TRIG2 Pad (Pad Type)]. Some fine-tuning of the
value will be necessary.

* Some pads are equipped with a sensitivity adjustment knob.

Please refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with the pad for
further information.

Velocitym

Strength
of hitm

MVl [Range] 1 to 127

Sets the MIDI Velocity (volume) that is transmitted when the pad
is hit the weakest. Large values will produce a high volume level
even if the pad is hit softly. However, this will result in a narrow

TRIG7 SPRej (Specified Rejection Level)

TRIG7 ¡snare 0%
–SPRej=0from= 1‚

SPRej [Range] 0 to 9
from [Range] 1 to 9, 56

This setting is used to prevent cross talk between the input jack
assigned in the upper half of the display and the input jack as­signed in the “from=” setting.
After an event occurs from the pad that is assigned in the “from=”
setting, the pad assigned in the upper half of the display will not
sound for a certain length of time unless the input level is greater
than the value set here. Larger values will require a greater input
level in order to produce a trigger event.
A “from=56” setting assigns both trigger inputs 5 and 6.

Trouble Shooting

The DTXPLORER does not produce sound, and does not recognize trigger inputs.

● Is the pad or trigger sensor properly connected to the DTXPLORER’s trigger input jack? (→ P. 9)

● Is the volume knob on the rear panel turned down? (→ P. 12)

● Is the input level displayed when the pad is hit? (→ P. 25 [Trigger Setup Edit:TRIG2 to TRIG7 pages)

● Is the gain set too low? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)])

● Is the volume setting on the Drum Kit’s “KIT 3 Volume” page (→ P. 21) set to “0”?

● Is the cable you are using OK?

The external tone generator does not produce sound.

● Is the MIDI cable (connector) properly connected?

● Is the correct MIDI connector being used?

Produces sound but the sensitivity is too low (volume is low).

● Is the gain set too low? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)])

● Pads with output or sensitivity control volumes should be adjusted (increased).

● Is the minimum velocity set too low? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)])

● Is a proper velocity curve being used? (→ P. 26 [TRIG4 VelCurve (Velocity Curve)])

● Is the volume of the voice you want to use too low? (→ P. 21 [KIT3 Volume)]

The trigger sound is not stable (for acoustic drums).

● Check the “Produces sound but the sensitivity is too low (volume is low).” list above.

● Is the proper pad type set? Select a larger pad type setting (DT snare → DT hi tom → DT lo tom → DT kick 1 →

DT kick 2) (→ P. 25 [TRIG2 Type (Pad Type)])

● Is the DT20 properly attached with sticky tape? (Is there any old sticky tape remaining on the head?)

● Is the cable securely connected to the DT20 jack?

28

Trouble Shooting

Double-triggers (when 2 sounds are played at the same time) are produced.

● Pads with output or sensitivity control volumes should be adjusted (lowered).

● Is the gain set too high? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)]).

● Use the self-rejection. (→ P. 26 [TRIG5 SelfRejTime (Self Rejection Time)])

● (If you are using trigger sensors) Are you using trigger sensors made by a manufacturer other than Yamaha? Too

large a signal can produce double-triggers.

● Is the head causing irregular vibrations? It may be necessary to mute the head.

● Is the sensor attached close to the center of the head? Move the sensor closer to the rim.

● Is the sensor in contact with anything else?

Cross-talk (mixed signals from different inputs) is produced.

● Is the gain set too high? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)])

● Try increasing the rejection parameter. However, a setting a value that is too high may cause the sound to be

muted when another drum is hit at the same time. (→ P. 26 [TRIG6 Rejection (Rejection Level)])

● If cross-talk is produced with a specific trigger input, try using specific rejection. (→ P. 27 [TRIG7 SPRej (Specified
Rejection Level)])

● Try placing the sensors (DT20, etc.) away from nearby drums.

When 2 pads (drums) are played only 1 sound is heard.

● Raise the gain setting of the pad (drum) that is not producing sound. (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum
Velocity)])

● Lower the rejection setting of the pad that is not producing sound. (→ P. 26 [TRIG6 Rejection (Rejection Level)])

● Lower the specified rejection setting of the pad that is not producing sound. (→ P. 27 [TRIG7 SPRej (Specified

Rejection Level)])

● Are both pads set to the same alternate group? (→ P. 22 [KIT10 AltGroup (Alternate Group)])

The sound is always loud.

● Is the minimum velocities minimum value set too high? (→ P. 26 [TRIG3 Gain, MVI (Minimum Velocity)])

● Are you using a proper velocity curve? (→ P. 26 [TRIG4 VelCurve (Velocity Curve)])

● Are you using a sensor made by a manufacturer other than Yamaha? Depending upon the manufacturer output

levels might be too large.

The DTXPLORER does not receive any switch or trigger signals.

● If you can access the Utility mode, do a factory reset. The DTXPLORER will reset to its factory settings. (→ P. 2 3
[UTIL6 Factory Set])

● Turn the POWER switch OFF then ON while holding the [<] and [>] buttons. The DTXPLORER will reset to its
factory settings.

The sound will not stop.

● Is the [KIT11 KeyOn/Off (MIDI Key On/OFF)] setting in the MIDI Key On/Off display set to “norm”? (→ P. 22 )
When set to “norm”, some voices may sound continuously. Press the [DRUM KIT] button to temporar ily stop the
sound.

The Closed Hi-Hat voice is not produced.

● Is the proper pad type selected? If the RHH130 is used as a hi-hat controller, the pad type must be set to “RHH”.
