The NUX DM-310H is a professional electronic drum kit designed to feel and respond like an acoustic set, thanks to its independent hi-hat, larger pads and powerful VariTone tone engine. With USB audio and MIDI, built-in coaching tools and easy smartphone recording, it is equally at home on stage, in the studio or in a practice room.

At the heart of the DM-310H is NUX VariTone technology, which delivers a detailed, expressive sound library that reacts to your dynamics and playing position. Larger ride, snare and floor tom pads give you a more familiar acoustic-style layout, improving ergonomics and making fast fills and intricate patterns feel natural under the sticks. Whether you are upgrading from a compact beginner kit or looking for a reliable gigging and recording solution, the DM-310H offers a refined playing experience with modern connectivity.

The independent hi-hat, mounted on its own stand, is a major step up from fixed trigger pads. A dedicated motion sensor unit tracks your footwork and supports fully open, fully closed and half-open positions, so you can play nuanced grooves, splashes and chicks with convincing realism. Combined with the responsive pads and advanced sound processing, the DM-310H lets you focus on your performance rather than fighting the kit.

For recording and content creation, the built-in USB audio interface allows you to send multi-track audio and MIDI directly to your DAW, while AUX IN recording makes it simple to capture high-quality audio and video straight to your smartphone with a single cable. Add in the comprehensive coach function with four targeted practice modes and you have a complete drumming solution that supports both serious practice and professional production.

Independent Hi-Hat for Authentic Feel

The DM-310H features an independent hi-hat mounted on its own stand, giving you a far more realistic playing experience than fixed pad designs. The integrated motion sensor tracks your foot movement and supports fully open, fully closed and half-open positions, so you can play expressive grooves, splashes and chicks with the kind of control you expect from an acoustic kit.

VariTone Natural Tone Processing

NUX VariTone technology powers the DM-310H sound engine, using advanced algorithms and strong processing performance to capture subtle differences in striking position and dynamics. A high-quality sound library and detailed response combine to deliver a natural, immersive playing feel that closely mirrors an acoustic drum kit.

Ergonomic Layout with Larger Pads

With a larger ride, snare and floor tom, the DM-310H offers improved stage presence and a more comfortable, acoustic-style layout. The optimised ergonomics make it easier to move around the kit, execute fast fills and maintain good technique, helping every strike feel smoother and more controlled.

USB Audio, MIDI and Smart Practice Tools

The built-in USB audio interface lets you record up to 8 separate tracks of audio and MIDI directly into your DAW, simplifying both studio and live setups. A versatile coach function provides four practice modes for dynamics, timing and tempo control, while AUX IN recording allows you to capture high-quality audio and video to your smartphone using a single TRRS cable.
