Eight Responsive Trigger Pads
The DP-2000IN features eight independent, high-sensitivity pads that accurately respond to playing dynamics, capturing everything from subtle finger taps to powerful strikes.

A Rich and Versatile Sound Library
At the heart of the DP-2000IN is a professional sound library built on NUX’s high-definition acoustic drum sampling technology, inherited from the flagship DM-8 electronic drum kit.
The instrument includes 70 drum kits, comprising 50 preset kits and 20 user-defined kits. These cover a broad range of acoustic drum sounds, electronic percussion and musical styles, with the addition of 30 exclusive Indian percussion kits that explore the distinctive rhythms and tonal character of Indian drumming.
