Of course you are an important component in the mix, but church sound systems – and indeed the spaces themselves – are acoustically slanted to the human voice, the message. And that’s how it should be.

But this can pose problems for the musician trying to deliver a powerful, but not overpowering, message of their own through the gift of music.

In church, your drum sound needs to be both controllable and inspirational. The DTXPRESS III gives you a superb level of control. As an electronic kit, there is little or no acoustic noise coming off the pads and a completely tailorable level of both individual pads and the overall kit.

Playing in church doesn’t only require top quality drum sounds; you may need to punctuate using orchestral percussion (timps, bells, etc.). The DTXPRESS III has 990 sounds at its disposal with room for 32 customized kits.

Finally, let’s talk about space. Unless you are resident in a cathedral, chances are the band will be a little pushed for space. The last thing anyone needs is a mass of heavy hardware to have to keep moving around—or storing. The DTXPRESS III can be both assembled and broken down in a few minutes, or simply picked up en masse and stored in an adjoining room or storage area.
