PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

Please keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from

electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to,

the following:

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or

radiators. Also, do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord,

or place heavy objects on it.

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required

voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Use the specified adaptor (page 88) only. Using the wrong adaptor can

result in damage to the instrument or overheating.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which

may have accumulated on it.

• This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the

instrument or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components

in any way. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use

immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service

personnel.

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet

conditions, place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses)

containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such

as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and

unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item

may fall over and cause a fire.

- There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or

damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-

connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause

overheating in the outlet.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always

hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be

used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might

accidentally fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent

damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using

is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately

turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even

when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the

product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a

long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching the

stand or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause

damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling

over.

Setting Up for Sound

1. Ensure that your drum module is turned off (i.e., nothing is

visible on the LCD screen).

2. Insert the power adaptor’s DC plug into the

[ ] connector on the rear panel.

3. Hook the power adaptor’s DC cord around the cord clip to

prevent it from being accidentally pulled out.

4. Plug the power adaptor’s AC power cord into a domestic wall

socket.

Your DTX502 does not feature built-in speakers. In order to hear

it, therefore, you will need to connect headphones or a DTX-

series monitor system, such as the MS40DR. You can adjust the

output volume using the VOLUME [+] and [–] buttons on the

control panel.

 Connecting headphones

Plug your headphones into the [PHONES] jack (for standard

stereo audio).

 Connecting speakers

Connect your speakers to the OUTPUT [L/MONO] and [R]

jacks (for standard mono audio).

You can connect a portable music player or another similar

source of audio to your drum module via the [AUX IN] (auxiliary

input) stereo mini-jack. This makes it possible to play along with

your favorite tunes.

Connecting the Power

CAUTION

Excessive bending can damage the power adaptor cord

and create a fire hazard. Ensure, therefore, that the power

cord is not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around

the clip.

WARNING

Use only the specified adaptor. The use of other adaptors

may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and

Striking the Drum Pads

When using a three-zone snare pad such as the XP80, you can produce three distinct sounds (i.e., head, open rim, and closed rim) depend-

ing on where you strike it, much the same as if you were playing an acoustic snare.

 Head shots

Striking the main surface of the pad produces a head shot

sound.

 Open rim shots

Striking the open-rim zone produces an open rim-shot

sound.

 Closed rim shots (cross sticking)

Striking the closed-rim zone produces a closed rim-shot

sound.

When using a two-zone hi-hat pad such as the RHH135, you can produce a number of distinct sounds, much the same as if you were play-

ing an acoustic hi-hat cymbal.

 Open and closed sounds

• You can produce an open hi-hat sound by striking the hi-

hat pad with the hi-hat controller’s pedal not depressed.

• You can produce a closed hi-hat sound by striking the hi-

hat pad with the hi-hat controller’s pedal depressed.

• Using a hi-hat pedal, you can recreate the sound of a clos-

ing hi-hat.

 Bow shots

Striking the main surface of the hi-hat pad (i.e., the bow

section located between the cup and edge) produces a bow

shot sound.

 Edge shots

Striking the outside edge of the hi-hat pad produces an

edge shot sound.

 Foot-close sounds

You can depress the hi-hat controller’s pedal to create a

foot-close sound without having to strike the hi-hat pad.

 Hi-hat splash sounds

Depressing the hi-hat controller’s pedal and then immedi-

ately releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound.

 Cup shots (PCY100 only)

When using a PCY100 as your hi-hat, you can produce a

cut shot sound by striking the cup section of the pad.

In order to do so, you will need to set the cup switch (CUP

SW) on the rear of the pad to the ON position.

 Bell shots

Striking the cup produces a bell shot sound.

 Choking

Grabbing the edge of a cymbal pad immediately after strik-

ing it will silence the sound being produced.

 Muting

Selecting & Playing a Kit

In terms of the DTX502, a “kit” is a full set of drum-sound assignments for all of the pads. Your

drum module comes with 50 different drum and percussion kits already set up.

1.

Press the [KIT] button to access the Kit area.

Verify that “KIT1” is displayed at the top-left of the screen.

2.

Turn the Data Dial to select a different kit.

3.

Play the pads and see how the kit sounds.

A pad’s sensitivity determines how the loudness (or power) of its drum sounds changes depending

on how hard you strike it. You can adjust the sensitivity of all pads as follows to make them more

accurately reflect the dynamics of your drumming.

Hold down the [KIT] button and press either the VOLUME [+]

or [–] button.

• Pressing the VOLUME [+] button increases the gain setting, making all of the pads more

sensitive. This means that louder sounds can be more easily produced with softer drumming.

• Pressing the VOLUME [–] button decreases the gain setting, making all of the pads less sen-

sitive. This means that louder sounds can only be produced by drumming hard.

If necessary, you can change the volumes of individual instruments (page 20). For example, you

may need to lower the volume of the kick while increasing the volume of the snare. For details on

how to do so, see the description of the Mixer settings page from Menu Mode (page 57).

Building Your Own Unique Kits

It’s easy to build your own unique drum kits with the DTX502—simply change the drum sounds

assigned to the individual pads on pages KIT2 to KIT6 as described below.

To edit a kit, you must first carry out the following two steps.

1. Press the [KIT] button to access the Kit area.

2. Turn the Data Dial to select the kit you wish to edit.

The changes that can be made on each of pages KIT2 to KIT6 are described below.

NOTE

The KIT1 page is used only for selecting different kits.

When any of a kit’s parameters have been changed but not yet saved, an

asterisk (*) will appear beside the page name at the top-left of the screen. The

asterisk will disappear when you save your settings. (See page 25.)

If you select another kit without saving your changes, they will be lost.

Voices, instruments, and kits

Pads such as the snare, hi-hat, and cymbals (pages 16 to 18) have

been designed to trigger different voices (or sounds) depending on

the zone of the pad that is struck (see Input Sources on page 29). In

terms of the DTX502, an “instrument” is a collection of the voices

assigned to the various zones of a specific pad. A kit comprises a full

set of instruments—one for each pad.
