This looks amazing. I'm gonna order both of these units and test them out asap. The layout I've been using with my "standard" 4x4 controllers basically instantly translates to these machines. I can't wait to play them.
@@leorodo8951 Yeah they must know about it, and that makes me very happy. I also adopted a system from someone else when I started and then adjusted it a bit. If they did the same and it makes things better for all of us I think that's perfect!
Missed a lot of the ghost notes when demoing the sensitivity. Hopefully that can be adjusted. Would like to see a MIDI controller only version of this.
NO 5 pin midi DIN connector or MIDI Mini TRS connector? No line level audio outputs? This is a childrens toy compared to products from Nord and Roland. Buskers would love an affordable option, especially if it had midi out and could be used to trigger nicer sounding drum samples.
Din Midi connector converters are about $15. It has an output labeled phones/output. Often, that means there will be a way to set the output to line level. The Rolands are two to three times as expensive. This should be closer to the average busker's price range.
@@streamtrackergreat answer. People want every device to have every thing ever. Meanwhile Ignoring that stuff gets to a price point by……. Not have ing every option every single Time It’s like complaining about Apple not having this jack or that. Get a $10-20 adapter. Recognize that 90% of users maybe don’t need every feature. So many options in the modern world why find flaws only. Get a more expensive device then lol
@@soundcheck6885 fair. Tho also those are stable, universal and there are ample adapters Hey- we weren’t in a deadly earthquake in Morocco. Shit could be worse
I understand the lack of midi output in this price range, tough I’m sure they could have done it if they wanted to for $10 more. However, micro USB in 2023 is unforgivable to be. It is the worst connector ever made. It breaks very easily. All it needs is for a distracted person to trip on a cable while plugged in and it breaks. Also, the cost to go to usb c is negligible for a $200 product. I’m sad because I really like the rest of the product.
Yamaha has always produced some of the best and most realistic drum sounds in my opinion and this seems to be no exception however as many others have already stated, a connection would have been sweet.
Glad to see another competitor on the market, but it does feel like this needs at least a 2nd generation, because I already see some things to be sceptical about. Not having at least one rotary knob to adjust volume, panning, etc. is kind of bummer for example. They way you keep tapping that button is already frustrating to look at. But again, I am glad you are giving this a chance and I can see how it can be useful to others. Pricing point is not that bad either. Good luck!
This is similar to how I layout my 4x4 pads. If this has battery and mult-velocity/round robin, separate headphone out with click and midi it would be an instant buy.
I got mine 2 days ago. Was hesitating because of the lack of output and outdated fragile micro usb port. After a couple of days, i can say this is no highend pad sensativity, specially the bassdrum pad. The hardest thing to describe is the sensativity of pads on units like this. My take on this one is that the pads themselves seem ok, it's the lack of oversampling in the unit's sound library takes. The louder you hit, the louder it goes, but there are like 2 or 3 different layers only of sound that sound different. So when you hit harder and harder, the sound gets louder and louder then you get another timber of a harder hit snare after a certain degree. It's just that after a certain range of pressure it switches between 2 samples that are quite different and noticable making it awkward abit. There is no sensativity settings as such either, but some volume and adjustments settings can be tweaked for each pad. It's fun to use and play, but for recording drum tracks on song projects, it's not professional as a maschine mikro 3 with addictive drums let's say. But maybe the Fgdp 50 into a DAW with a vst with more sampling layers can make this unit a different beast, but i have'nt tried that yet. As for this pad configuration, i'm not sure. I sure don't like the factory setup of the placement. I know they can be all assigned to other pads, but my prefered layout would have the snare on a very small pad etc... I'm gonna hold my critics on this pad layout because it's another instrument to learn and you must forget your instinct of 4x4 traditional lay out. It's been roughly 3 months since its launch, and there ain't no real impressing performance done by legendary youtube finderdruming wizards yet, so that shows clearly this new pad configuration is not as easy and intuative to master as it may seem. Also, after barely an hour, it showed battery 50%. I did'nt use it till it cuts off yet, but the battery seems weak when playing at loud volume with accompaniement sessions running at the same time and i had so many problems before with micro usb jacks, so i know i must be very carefull. The pros of unit are the speaker ,the portability and standalone convenience. If you're like me and don't play as much as you should because you're sometimes just too lazy to fire up your PC,DAW and VST, this unit requires only power on and your ready to go. So for those reasons and price tag, it makes it an ok purchase so far and i hope the battery and micro usb jack holds on as i don't want to learn this new pad configuration on a unit that will eventually fail. A type C input jack instead of a micro usb and AA batteries instead of the non replaceable internal battery + a 2nd speaker on the other side for a full stereo panned drum image would've made this a beast.
Missing two things: a rotary encoder, instead of pushing/holding a button to change values; and in the click track options, JK Simmons’ voice-“not my tempo, but, okay… you’re rushing… you’re dragging…. Get out of my sight before I demolish you.”
Definitely need that last part.. If you don’t impress this virtual assistant drum teacher, the device launches itself into the air and tries to throw itself at your face 🤣
@@dougle03 There are USB MIDI host boxes. It just kind of sucks to need one. They could have at least used 3.5mm TRS if DIN takes up too much space. For that, you'd just need the right cable.
👍👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿 What a beautifull chasis design. Simple and modern. Love always the blue lights. Reds give me migraine. A must-have. I will be waiting anxiously for the release. Beautiful design + functionality = perfect instrument.
So basically in 2023 YAMAHA created AKAI XR20 on steroids. Or MPC500 in the best case. Okay. Maybe Zoom RhythmTrak RT-123. I see some people would buy it for the cool pad layout, but most would skip it.
Weird I/O choice imo, they feature panning and a such one would think that there would be two TRS outputs instead of the mini jack, most producers and people with home studio's have a audio interface so they could use easy cables to connect it. Same as synthersizers and mixers would have for left and right outputs....This is why a device like this should have unprocessed drum sample in it so people can record straight into the daw, and do some outboard gear in the way in and have a decent drum kit for their song. I presumme the usb is for midi purposes??
Micro USB MIDI connector? Why use a legacy USB connection instead of the current, modern standard type C connector? Why no 1/4 audio jacks? Why no DIN MIDI in or out. Seems like Yamaha made some limiting choices that deter the product from selling well. Interesting but not interesting enough. Seems like an opportunity missed.
I pre-ordered already! You guys should make a rhythm game for practicing this instrument. Oh and if it had Bluetooth MIDI to connect to computers wirelessly, it was perfect.
the best music purchase I have made since SP404A. only one criticism is using USB micro :/ instead of USB C -- using USB C would have made all those USB features work SO MUCH better. I'm buying a Micro USB to USB C now... but I didn't have that one around.
I can't wait to get one. I'm excited to hear how much different my finger drumming will be with this unit. Would appreciate a left (mono) and right 1/4 inch outputs and stereo 1/4 inch audio input with line and mic level switch to record straight to the usb. If it had even the most basic sampling abilities (such as truncate and loop point and decay time) this thing would be a total ass kicker.
I hope there's a plan to add internal an internal sequencer to the high-end model through a downloadable software update in the future. You have all of the buttons for one, but it's missing as far as I can see from this demo.
It won't happen because they have similar devices at a higher price point they are ultimately trying to push you toward. It's a common Yamaha tactic, they do it all the time with low end keyboards. There are a few things this box is missing unfortunately. I'd love to slave this to a Circuit Tracks.
if it had a mic and sampler i’d get it, it’s a much needed innovative layout. also at first glance it looks like no true midi port?! Hopefully they improve this concept
I'd love to see a cross between this and a Wavedrum. The FGDP gives access to full drum kits, by tapping in different areas... while the Wavedrum allows playing naturally like a normal drum and has much greater expressiveness and nuance of rhythm. Would be really cool to have the best of both.
@@tubasco504 The cool thing about a Wavedrum is that it's an actual drum. Instead of playing samples, it uses contact mics as the inputs for a variety of physical modelling synth engines. It transforms even the tiniest inputs, like gently, slowly brushing a fingertip across the surface.
I seem to be having some difficulty in getting the Steinberg driver to recognise the DGDP-50. The 'Devices' tab is greyed out. The charging light is on though,. so assume the cable is ok. I have the latest driver installed and this works ok when my Montage is connected to Cubase. Many thanks for any assistance.
Question: when you record as a standalone groovebox to its internal memory, does it record only audio or midi too? If I can drag and drop the grooves into my computer and load any virtual drums to play those patterns back, then this is a winner.
How many samples are there in the presets, ie. the Maple kit, how many snare hits compromise the snare pad? When I upload my own samples, can I velocity multisample a pad and/or round-robin? When I hit the larger pads, is it correct that I need to release to re-hit (ie. doing a fast double-bass with the thumbs, need to ensure right thumb has released before left hits, vs. having independent L/R thumb pads... again, this is where you'd want multisample support to not keep triggering one sample)? I am uncertain if the left/right sides of the large pads are independent. Very interested, but I definitely have some questions.
This looks like a great drum set for experts and above or for people that like toys to play with. It would be nice to have a simpler version for people that just want to play easy finger drums. Why are electronic versions so massively overcomplicated.
I was excited to see Yamaha offer something to this very competitve market. I was expecting to be impressed by something of real pro quality, especially connectivity 🙈
This is great. I'm a pro-drummer struck down with chronic arthritis - This could be my new kit solution!
Aw shit - that sucks! I'm a drummer - but live in an apartment, even the footpedal on my electric kit is too much for the neighbors

What a weird decision to omit MIDI output. It would be great companion to samplers or loopers.
