All Mesh Heads Made by REMO
NUX co-operates with REMO to equip DM-8 with all REMO mesh heads. No matter strike feedback or touching, DM-8 can provide you with the perfect drumming experience. The mesh head has been tested for more than 1 million strokes and is thus very durable. Two trigger zones are at the head and at the rim. The tone changes depending on where and how hard you strike, ensuring the most realistic playing feel.

 

An Expressive Hi-Hat
The hi-hat is mounted on its own hat stand, providing a more realistic feel as opposed to a fixed pad. Mounted onto a motion sensor unit, the hat can be easily adjusted to your playing style, including Open/Closed and Half Open hats.

 

 

A 12" Independent Snare Drum
The DM-8 snare pad authentically emulates the behaviours of a real acoustic snare drum with its rim and shell design. The triple zone enables you to play convincing rim shots and cross sticks while adapting to the needs of most playing situations from rock to funk to latin and the cross stick is great for ballads or bossa nova, The snare uses the latest three point trigger technology, which makes the sound of each position on the drumhead more balanced. Also included is a very stable independent snare stand for the best performance.

A New 10" Kick
The newly designed 10-inch independent kick drum can fully support a double bass pedal. The new kick pedal features a double chainstay and a thicker soleplate. The double chain design makes the beater swing more stable, while the thickened base plate keeps the entire pedal from moving freely.

 

Group Fader
The new DM-8 sound module is loaded with innovation and eye-catching features, including the Group Faders, which assigns audio levels to each individual pad. Create your own custom drum mixes easily!

Also included are 30 sets of high-fidelity drum kits with different styles. No matter the drum style, you can get the sounds you want from it. Intuitive and powerful sound customization features allow users to freely edit their own drum kits. You can assign any sound to the rim or head

If you would like to evaluate your drumming performances, just simply click the "Record" button before you start playing.

 

USB Audio I/O
The DM-8 module is also an audio interface, with the ability to send stereo audio and MIDI data to a Mac or Windows computer via USB. This lets you record discrete audio and MIDI drum tracks in any DAW, or trigger sounds from software based drum instruments for studio or live playing.
