The DTX Electronic Percussion Pad MULTI-12 uses many of the high-end features and sounds from the DTX and
MOTIF series and provides an optimum tool for live drumming, productions or rehearsals.

musical situation. Up to 200 User Sets can be programmed and added with effects to get ready for every conceivable musical style with the
best sounds around. In addition, the large 64MB Flash-ROM Wave-Memory can be filled with additional samples which then can be assigned
to the Pads.
Now the brand new soundset „Oriental Percussion“ for the DTX-MULTI 12 is available for registered users. It is provided by EASY SOUNDS on
behalf of Yamaha Music Europe - free of charge.
The download package includes the following:
50 Patterns
24 Kits
132 User Waves (18 MB Samples)
The soundset has been designed primarily for traditional and modern Turkish music. It‘s based on authentic samples of oriental percussion
instruments.
The oriental instruments are however well suited for use in other music styles such as Pop, World, Chill Out, Ambient, etc.
„Oriental Percussion“ was programmed by the Turkish musician and producer Mert Topel.
Since 1990 Mert Topel is working as a musician with nationally and internationally known pop and rock stars such as Tarkan (1993-2008) and
many others. Mert recorded several albums as a producer of jazz, fusion, rock bands, and singers like Kirac, Mor ve Otesi, Gülden Goksen,
Grizu etc. He also has his own jazz-rock band „Fenomen“, which published its first album in 2006 - with very good response from jazz lovers.
Right now his band is working on a second album. Another project is a collaboration with Alper Maral in the production of an electro-acoustic-
oriented album called „The Voltage Control Project“, which appears in 2010.
The DTX-12 MULTI Patterns produced by Mert Topel should inspire the musician in the first place and serve as basis for his own music pro-
ductions.
