YamahaKP65 Electronic Kick Tower
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Yamaha kick tower that converts a bass drum pedal into a trigger for an electronic kit. For players who want a real pedal feel.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adding a real acoustic bass pedal feel to an electronic kit
- Replacing a beaterless kick pedal on an entry electronic set
- Quiet home practice where an acoustic bass drum is too loud
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone without a bass drum pedal, which is not included here
- Double-pedal players needing a wide twin-beater striking surface
- Acoustic kits, since this only sends a trigger signal
What matters in use

Detail 02
Trigger output

Detail 03
Yamaha electronic drum compatibility
Built around Yamaha modules. Confirm the trigger input and cable type on your specific module.
Detail 04
Around $77
Budget end of kick triggers, so expect a compact tower rather than a full-size mesh kick.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01A bass drum pedal is not included and you will need one
- 02Confirm your drum module has a free kick trigger input
- 03Put it on a rug or mat so it does not creep during play
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need a separate kick pedal?
Yes. The tower is the striking surface only. You mount any standard bass drum pedal to it, which is why it feels closer to an acoustic kit than a beaterless pedal.
02Will this work with a non-Yamaha module?
It is designed for Yamaha electronic drums. Other modules may read it depending on trigger input type and cable, so check your module's input spec before buying.
03Is it quiet enough for apartments?
Quieter than an acoustic bass drum, but the beater impact and pedal noise still travel through the floor. A drum mat or riser helps with downstairs neighbors.
04Can I use a double pedal with it?
The striking surface is compact, so double-beater spacing is tight. If you play double bass regularly, look at a wider kick pad or tower.
