The NUX DM-8 is the latest drum kit from NUX, featuring new innovative technology, giving drummers an authentic, acoustic-like feel and realistic expressive playing. It also features a robust rack system which is not only durable, but looks great while doing so.
AN EXPRESSIVE HI-HAT
The NUX DM-8 hi-hat is mounted on its own stand, providing a more realistic feel as opposed to a fixed pad. Mounted onto a motion sensor unit, the hat can be easily adjusted to your playing style, including Open/Closed and Half Open hats.
A 12″ INDEPENDENT SNARE DRUM
The DM-8 snare pad authentically emulates the traits of a real acoustic snare drum with its rim and shell design. The triple zone enables you to play convincing rim shots/and cross sticks while adapting to the needs of most playing situations from rock, funk, and all the way to latin. The cross stick feature is also great for ballads or bossa nova. The DM-8 snare uses the latest three-point trigger technology, which makes the sound of each position on the drumhead more balanced. Also included is a very stable independent snare stand, for the best performance.
A NEW 10″ KICK
The newly designed 10-inch independent kick drum can fully support a double bass pedal.This redefined kick pedal features a double chainstay and a thicker soleplate, which means the double chain design makes the beater swing more stable, while the thickened base plate keeps the entire pedal from moving freely, giving you ultimate stability and comfort in your kit!
GROUP FADERS
The new DM-8 sound module is loaded with innovation and eye-catching features, including the Group Faders, which assigns audio levels to each individual pad. Create your own custom drum mixes easily!Also included are 30 sets of high-fidelity drum kits with different styles. No matter the drum style, you can get the sounds you want! Intuitive and powerful sound customization features allow users to freely edit their own drum kits. You can assign any sound to the rim or head of the DM-8 pads.
USB AUDIO I/O
The DM-8 module is also an audio interface, with the ability to send stereo audio and MIDI data to a Mac or Windows computer via USB. This lets you record discrete audio and MIDI drum tracks in any DAW, or trigger sounds from software based drum instruments for studio or live playing. Want to record more than a stereo pair? No problem! You can record up to 14 separate audio tracks into your favorite DAW.
IMPORT YOUR SAMPLES
The DM-8 enables you to import your own WAV samples via a USB Flash Drive, giving you the ability to build your dream kit with your favorite samples and assign to any pad to play!

Man as always great service, I thought the kit would take ages to arrive but it was really quick and I highly recommend this drum kit, it plays fantastic and sound great! Much nicer to play than the DM210 it is worth the extra money as I have got both.
