HELP !! *2024-11-02* I like the app but only when I see it. By that I mean that when I tap to open, I get a black screen. I can't do anything to fine tune the sounds. It's maddening. So I delete the app and reinstall, 4 times so far today, but to no avail. It's still a black screen. Help please. ### 2/5 — Stopped working *2024-09-27* Stopped working mid way through setting up sound. Waste ### 2/5 — BRING BACK DTX 502 TOUCH *2023-11-27, version 1.0.6* bring back Dtx 502 touch.. ### 3/5 — Needs updating *2023-06-07* It’s been over a year since an update. The app doesn’t fit the screen correctly on an iPad, you have to constantly rotate the screen after viewing the YouTube videos. The app doesn’t detect the hits correctly as it keeps stating “try again” on lesson 2 where as on lesson 1 the hits are getting picked up easily. There isn’t much difference between lesson 1&2. Very frustrating for a child having it say this constantly. On an iPhone after it tells you to “try again” the sound volume goes up on headphones or an amp then goes down again. There needs to be some sort of visual representation that it’s registered your hit with a graphic or some such. I had to turn off the lessons frequently just to make sure the drum kit was working still since it appeared it wasn’t registering properly. As the drum kits are still being sold Yamaha should keep their apps updated until the product is discontinued. We bought the DTX452k. The setup instructions should also give measurements for heights of the pads etc. off the floor when setting up the kit based on user heights. ### 1/5 — Chateado *2021-09-19* Tive o mesmo problema que o comentário anterior, comprei a Bateria, instalei, comprei os cabos necessários pra usar o App e tbm n consegui abrir ele. O App não reconhece a bateria, vou entrar em contato com a Yama o quanto antes, to bem chateado com isso ! ### 1/5 — Não funciona *2021-09-10* Comprei a bateria Yamaha Dtx452k e um dos fortes motivos de eu ter escolhido a Yamaha foi por conta dos aplicativos, pra eu poder estudar e me aprimorar na bateria. Comprei todos os cabos a parte pra poder conectar meu celular, e ainda por cima ele não funciona, não identifica que ta conectado na bateria. Tô bem decepcionado. Por favor arrumem isso. ### 1/5 — Absolute crap, useless app *2020-08-27, version 1.0.4* It simply does not connect, and the two times it had it just doesn't do much, won't correspond to the drums, of the phone locks then it looses connection immediately... Who would you even bother releasing an app this bad?? ### 1/5 — Firmware update broke my drum kit *2020-07-03, version 1.0.4* So it tried to do a firmware with this app for my 402dtx. I followed the instructions on screen. Then I got a message saying ‘update firmware failed’. Now my drum kit module is non functional. Terrible. ### 1/5 — Inútil la app para una buena batería *2020-04-20, version 1.0.4* La app ni sincroniza, ni está adaptada a otros idiomas. Un cagalástima. ### 2/5 — 無法選擇語言，只有簡中。內容的影片無法播放。版本是1年前的，都沒有修正這些問題 *2020-02-03, version 1.0.4* 無法選擇語言，只有簡中。內容的影片無法播放。版本是1年前的，都沒有修正這些問題！ ### 1/5 — Idioma español? *2019-12-05, version 1.0.4* Please un Spanish ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2025-12-03* I've had my drum set for many years and put off interfacing using a device, but I updated my iPhone to the newest iOS, got the correct cable, made sure I had this app going but it won't update the firmware, all of the preset lights stay lit but nothing ever happens, incredible there can be these reviews here with such a great company and no help. Very disheartened ### 1/5 — Not working at all with the kit *2024-10-28* Unfortunately, Yamaha doesn’t respond to any service issues with the Dtx430k interface and no longer sells the DTX400 Touch on Apple so I am stuck with old settings when it did work . I guess someone somewhere knows what to do ! ### 1/5 — Avoid at all costs! *2024-05-28, version 1.0.6* I downloaded this app and I connected it to my drum module a DTX-452K and I followed all the instructions on the screen.. Somehow, something happened with the connection, and my drum module never turned on again! I had to buy a new one. This app is THE WORST! ### 1/5 — 앱 자체 실행이 안될때가 더 많네요 *2023-11-26* 앱실행하면 먹통 ### 1/5 — Sometimes it work sometimes it didn't *2023-05-27, version 1.0.6* I'm so sick of it. It stresses me out.. ### 1/5 — Cannot use this app *2023-02-20* I don’t know if the support for this has been dropped, but I cannot use this app with my dtx402 kit. It won’t update firmware, and is otherwise useless. Fixes? ### 1/5 — Nos ajude Yamaha *2022-10-03* Deve ser sensacional este app mas infelizmente não atualiza e não reconhece a mudança de som no aplicativo para a bateria… 🥲… atualizem por favor para usar nas versões novas do iOS, vocês são incríveis sei que conseguem. 🥰 ### 1/5 — Não funciona *2022-09-06* Funciona por 2 min e depois diz que não reconhece o aplicativo. Poderiam pro menos liberar os drives e eu mesmo monto meu app… ### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync *2021-11-06* This doesn’t actually sync to my DTX402. You can move the sliders around but it has literally no effect on the drum kit. ### 1/5 — Please support dtx 450k *2021-09-21, version 1.0.4* Really upset that no longer support for dtx450k Please support again.. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Help! *2021-04-23, version 1.0.4* I love my kit but can’t seem to get it to register the app properly, I have a DTX450K and it seems to connect via the appropriate cable but the changes I make on the app don’t seem to come through to the kit. Any suggestions? Cheers ### 5/5 — Bikin support ke dtx 450 dong *2021-04-01, version 1.0.4* Selamat siang. Apakah aplikasi dtx 402 bisa support ke dtx 450? Kalo tidak bisa. Di buat support dong. Di karenakan aplikasi dtx 400 touch sudah tidak ada. Terimakasih ### 5/5 — Great app👍 *2021-01-06* Great for changing and customizing the sounds your drum kit🥁 the ability to tune the drums is very helpful! There is a giant collection of different sounds to choose from! If you have a DTX drum model DOWNLOAD IMMEDIATELY 👍🥁👍🥁 ### 5/5 — Fallos con nueva actualización iOS *2020-12-23, version 1.0.4* La aplicación es genial para la serie Dtx4x2, pudiendo controlar y configurar todos los parámetros de la batería de una forma rápida y cómoda. Además todas las opciones de entrenamiento son geniales. ### 5/5 — It makes customising my drum super easy and fun! *2020-04-25, version 1.0.4* The app is really useful and the UI is simple and easy to use. You can customise all the kits within a few seconds. Last but not least, you can listen your favorite songs from your iPhone and play the drums when listening the song and you hear both the song and the drums you play. ### 4/5 — Works really nicely, but *2024-06-07* Would be really cool if there was a cowbell setting for cymbals ### 4/5 — 👍🏼 *2020-12-08* good app but needs the ability to be able to download more kits etc 🤔 ### 4/5 — Useful but could be improved *2020-01-29* This app helps make quicker changes to the kits and gives visual access to the challenge mode music scores. The update we are all waiting for is the ability to save kits under new user patches, not just overwrite the existing factory kits. There are tons of interesting percussion sounds but why not make some more kits available through the app. It’s a little clumsy in that respect. But if you have the dtx402 series kit then you will want this app, especially if you have an iPad or larger iPhone screen. Time to Practice! ### 4/5 — Really good *2019-05-03, version 1.0.4* I’m surprised how reliable and quick the connection is to the kit. Definitely better than trying to do stuff on the module itself but please can we have a portrait version? Other apps I use concurrently reallydon’t work well in landscape, thanks ! ### 3/5 — Pease *2025-04-02, version 1.0.7* We need support for DTX400 series --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
