A Trigger That Disappears into Your Kick
Blending an acoustic bass drum with, say, an 808 kick sample is hotter than ever. And today's drummer needs a trigger that's quick to set up, durable, and accurate. The Yamaha DT50K meets all these criteria. It seats easily on the hoop of your kick drum and locks into place with a non-marring, hand-tightened thumb screw. The Yamaha DT50K's soft padding has no audible impact on the tone of your drum. Even better, its die-cast metal housing blends seamlessly into your drum hardware and protects the element from damage out on the road.

Installs in seconds
The DT50K installs by hand without adhesive. Just slide it over your batter-side bass hoop, tighten the knurled thumb screw for security, and voila — plug in the included cable and start adding new textures to your kick sound.
Stands up to nightly abuse
What Sweetwater first noted about the DT50K is how tough it looks and feels in the hand. We know weekend warriors will appreciate the stick-deflecting metal housing and road-worthy dependability.
Integrates into DTX drum modules
The DT50K's TS output readies it for several Yamaha DTX drum modules. And thankfully, its universal cable makes it compatible with just about every interface and module.
