Ready to Rock Right
Out-of-the Box
We know how much you love to play, so we
designed the XD80USB drum kit for fast and
easy, tool-free setup. Just pull the kit out of
the box, position the drum and cymbal pads
the way you like ’em and plug in; it’s just that
simple. The XD80USB also comes pre-loaded
with music tracks in a variety of styles, so
you can sharpen your skills, or if you’re just
getting started – learn to play to real music.
There’s even an Aux Input, so you can play
along with your favorite mp3s or practice
tracks. And when you’re finished playing, just
fold up the kit and stash it behind the couch
or underneath the bed. Now your significant
other will still respect you in the morning!

Includes:
True-to-Life Feel
- HDS240USB sound module
The way drums “feel” is one of the most
important factors, especially for drummers
who use electronic drums for practice and then
return to an acoustic kit for live performance.
So we gave our pads a natural rubber surface,
which mimics the feel of real skins and
minimizes false triggering. The XD80USB
features a sturdy, extruded aluminum frame,
which provides a solid foundation for the
drum and cymbal pads. You’ll really appreciate
this added stability when you’re rockin’ out
full-tilt.
- Kick pedal, pad and stand
- 1 x 8" dual-zone snare pad
- 3 x 8" dual-zone pads
- 3 x 12" cymbals
- Hi-hat trigger pedal
- Drum rack with
mounting hardware
- Multi-pin breakout cable for
easy setup
- Pair of drumsticks
- Drum tool
USB/MIDI Audio Interface
- Quick start guide and
assembly instructions
One of the XD80USB’s coolest features is the
built-in USB/MIDI interface, which allows you
to connect to your computer and external MIDI
sound modules. This incredible functionality
lets you tap into your virtual instruments, drum
software and DAW (Digital Audio Workstation)
recording software (not included). Such
flexibility opens tremendous opportunities for
file sharing with your band mates – especially
when you need to collaborate on songwriting
and recording projects. It also gives you access
to the huge range of sounds available from
your MIDI devices, putting a vast library of
sounds at your fingertips.

Sound Quality
Easy setup and feel are important, but how does the XD80USB sound? Thanks to our HDS
(High Definition Sampling) technology you get top-notch studio drum, percussion and cymbal
sounds, all of which are velocity sensitive for your most-nuanced performance. The factory-preset
kits and sounds are programmed to give you an amazing range of professional-grade sounds for
the ultimate versatility, but you can always use XD80USB’s MIDI capability to build a custom library
via external MIDI sound modules. Plus you can program and store your own kits for instant recall.
The Brain Behind the Sound
Years of engineering went into the design of the XD80USB’s incredible HDS240USB sound module.
Once the sounds were created and tweaked, we turned our attention to making the sound module’s
user interface extremely flexible, functional, and most importantly – easy to use. All controls are laid
out in a very logical format, and stepping through setup parameters is highly intuitive, so you can
spend less time reading a manual – and more time playing!
