Best Roland e-drum kit IMO
Best bang for your buck!
I bought this kit and it is amazing. I could not afford the higher level kits so I chose this over the alesis. I’m heavy handed and I was concerned if this kit could handle that and not break down structurally and not comprimise notes. I have not been let down. The only drawback is that the hi hat is not as responsive as I’d like it to be. Other than that, u get what Uve paid for. I am very happy with this purchase and for the price it can’t be beat. I also have a double pedal that’s very responsive. Overall I’d give this kit a 9 out of 10. The rating of 9 is due to lack of nuance from the hi hat. Other than that this kit rocks if u do.
Thanks John! Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity of the hi-hat to your liking? Learn how: bit.ly/2A5SYFJ Maybe this will get this kit to a perfect 10 out of 10!
Good video, and awesome playing. Thanks for being so responsive to our questions! Definetly thinking about getting this kit.
Got a mean swing on you Mike!
Miles? ;)
Haha, I’m telling you bro, the swing just threw me for a 6!
Thanks!
Hola el monitor de piso jbl Eon 615 101Db
sirve para esta bate ???
nice fill .
Is there a possibility to separately adjust the volume of the pads?(premier, kick, tams, hi-hat, crash,ride)? And can it be set up for left hand drummers? Thanks!
yess you can adjust the volume of each pad by pressing the click button for 3 to 5 seconds. You can mount it left handed to.
why is it that u hit the cymbal on the ride it sounds like a ride and sometimes it sounds like a crash? is it depends on how u hit the cymbals? because it would be great if i can use that cymbal as a crash/ride
Yes exactly. The ride cymbal is a dual-zone pad, with one trigger for the bow and one for the edge. When you strike the edge, it triggers the crash cymbal sound. When you strike the bow, it triggers the ride cymbal sound. It's also velocity sensitive, so if you strike the bow hard, it will trigger a ride bell sound.
Bought one to learn
Where do you start
This video was a great place to start! If you're asking where to start in terms of setup and assembly, follow the setup instructions that came with the kit. After that, we'd recommend taking some lessons. If you purchased your kit from us, most of our stores have Lesson Centres.
Can you use a drum splitter cable on this to add an additional drum and cymbal? Im a beginner and this kit looks great and is very affordable but I would really like to add more to it if possible. Many thanks.
The tom pads are single-zone only, so you cannot split them. There's also no way to apply a custom sound to a particular trigger on the TD-1 module. The TD-1 is their most basic module and unfortunately what you're trying to do is not a basic feature. We'd recommend the TD-17 to do what you're hoping for.
Can i ask how to enable cross stick function?
On the TD-1DMK it is only possible to use the cross-stick sound in the #14 Reggae kit. In the other kits, it is not possible to activate the cross-stick sound.
Is it possible that you can play this kit without headphones and speakers but still can hear the drums, or is it a must to add speakers,
This kit does not have built-in speakers, which means that you'll need either headphones or an amplifier to hear the sounds coming out of the module. However, playing the kit without headphones or speakers essentially turns it into one of the most premium practice pad sets ever!
I’m thinking of getting this kit. I feel very confident in the mesh heads on this kit but I’m wondering if the double kick trigger pad will hold up to Tech Death Metal style playing. How durable and responsive is the double kick pad/ triggers? Can it withstand prolonged fast doublebass, Blast Beats, etc and not wear out or break within a short period?
I have this kit for about 3 weeks now, playing metal etc (double bass), just learning but anyway :) It triggers well (the kick pad), but I found it requires more skill to play fast double bass with it compared to an acoustic kit (the surface is rather hard/stiff, no 'give'/rebound like the acoustic bass drum would have). But overall it's ok. Definitely durable - no signs of wear so far (i've been practicing A LOT). Using a DW3000 pedal with original beaters (felt side). People used to play metal on older rubber kick pads like KD-8 or Yamaha kp65, and this pad must be somewhat similar, I guess, so I wouldn't worry. Btw heres a Sepultura cover I recorded with it last week th-cam.com/video/bqtDxTP8jiM/w-d-xo.html
It's probably even more durable than higher-end models since it's essentially a solid chunk of rubber attached to the leg of the rack. Unlike other kick towers that have mesh that can wear down over time and that stand independently and can creep forward, with this one you have the weight of the entire kit helping to hold it back.
Anton Dubkov Thank you for the info. It’s crazy because when I first started playing drums back in 1993 Sepultura was one of my favorite bands to learn drums too! I felt like I was in a time warp seeing you Cover that song! I really hate than Igor and Max Cavelera both left Sepultura. I don’t listen to the newer material since they are no longer apart of the band. So mad props 🤜🤛 to you on picking some awesome music material to learn! I figured the bass drum trigger on this kit wouldn’t have good rebound like an acoustic drum or even a mesh head. Again, thank you for the info and keep up the good work. I wish you and yours the best moving forward. Take care bud!
Long & McQuade Musical Instruments Thank you for the reply and for posting this TH-cam video. That makes total sense about the durability. If I purchased a Roland Mesh bass drum kick would I be able to use it on this kit instead of the one provided?
@@bultronlagore2095 Yes, all of Roland's bass drum triggers are interchangeable.
Hi. Great playing!!
I purchased this bundle thru sweetwater with the double kick pedal. Also I ordered an extra CY-12c crash cymbal and stand.
Is it possible to change the pitch of the other crash cymbal in the brain? 2x crashes with the same pitch are useless.
Did I make a mistake and should I cancle my cy12c and order the pdx100 instead?
Thanks
Hi, the TD-1 module can accept an additional crash pad, so when you plug in your CY-12C using the Crash 2 cable, it should already be a different pitch than Crash 1. Our advice would be to swap the CY-5 ride cymbal that was included with the kit and use the CY-12C as your ride pad (even though it's a "C" crash pad) because it has a larger playing surface.
@@longandmcquade interesting concept.
Probably would feel a bit better having the CY-12C as the ride. I have a few dollars left in the budget and the set still hasn't arrived to my distributor.
Should I just order a CY-12R to replace the CY-5R and use my included bundle purchased CY-12C to replace the CY-5C?
Or would it benefit to have the 13R, even though it's a 3 zone and the brain is only 2 zone. Probably would make the feel alot better?
@@matic1203cc There technically is no "CY-12R" or CY-12C" or "CY-5R" or "CY-5C". There's only one CY-5, which the base model of the TD-1 DMK comes with 3 of, for use on hi-hat, crash and ride. The CY-5 is perfectly fine for any of these uses, but the first to be upgraded should be the ride cymbal. The CY-12 is actually "CY-12R/C" which can be used either for ride or crash. So if you received the 3x CY-5 cymbal pads with the base model TD-1 DMK, and got an extra CY-12R/C, we'd recommend using the CY-5 pads for hats and 2x crashes, and the CY-12R/C for the ride.
@@longandmcquade Thank You. You've been a great help explaining everything.
@@matic1203cc And you didn't even buy it from us! 😭😂 No problem, happy to help any way we can! Thanks for watching our video!
Would like to know if this works with Superior Drummer 3
Sure does. The TD-1 module has a built-in USB/MIDI output.
Can I use it simply for the sound of the kick sound with the KT10?
Sure you could.
Can you change the sound on one pad only?
No, all the sounds on the TD-1 module are preset kits and cannot be customized or edited. For this functionality, we'd recommend looking into a kit with the TD-17 module. th-cam.com/video/cAx9Rf804SA/w-d-xo.html
This may sound dumb but can. I just buy this kit and put a better used module on it? Which will also allow for better customisation. I saw on another comment you said you can't edit anything. Can I plug it up to my computer at least? I was really considering this kit soley based on the price and the 4 mesh heads. Looks like of fun to be had for such a low price....well for a ekit anyway.
Yes, you could buy this kit and put a better module on it. However, it does not make the most sense to do so and we would not recommend it. The TD-1 DMK outfit with the mesh pad set and the TD-1 module as you see here is priced at $899. If you were to upgrade the module to the TD-11 or TD-17, you'd have to spend an additional $799 - $859. In total, that would be up to $1758, and you'd have a TD-1 module that you'd frankly never use. The kit we'd recommend for you instead is the TD-17 KVS. This outfit comes with the TD-17 module which has more features and better sounds than the TD-1, and you get a much better pad set including the PDX-12 snare and PDX-8 tom pads, as opposed to the PDX-8 snare and PDX-6 tom pads on the TD-1 DMK. Also the TD-17 KVS comes with the KD-10 kick pad which has a better feel and can be easily repositioned. The TD-17 KVS kit is $1699, about $50 LESS than you'd spend on the TD-1 DMK + TD-17 module, plus you gain all the benefits we previously mentioned.
can we play our own songs simultaneously with the drum kit? im new to e drums and want to be sure before buying
Yes you can. There's an 1/8" input on the side of the module that allows you to plug in your phone or iPod or any other device with a 1/8" output.
Could you swap out snare for a 10" mesh than move 8" to floor tom?
Absolutely you could. All the pads plug-in with a 1/4" cable, so you could purchase a PDX-100 (or similar) for your snare drum and use the PDX-8 for the floor tom.
Went to the shop to get this one and walked out with the TD17kv...It is just so much better for only a few hundred dollars. Way better than my buddies TD25 he paid much more fore.
@@ardiberen Maybe there is a huge price difference now? This was almost 3 years ago. TD17 was only a few hundred more
What amp are you using and how do you connect it to play out loud not in headphones?
For this video, Miles is monitoring his playing using the Roland PM-100 amp, but the recording is direct out of the TD-1 module into the camera. There's only one output on the module which is labeled "Output/Phones" so you would need a 1/8" to 1/4" male adapter and then a standard 1/4" patch cable into the amp.
All information I wanted to know - 👍
Can you connect your own, separate drum module? Example, I have an Alesis drum module.
Do you mean using this TD-1 DMK pad set, but using your Alesis as a replacement of the Roland TD-1 module? That might work but isn't ideal and will take lots of adjustments and customization to get it to work. You'll have to figure out a new cabling system (since the included wiring harness isn't likely to be compatible) and remap the pads and adjust lots of settings like sensitivity, threshold, etc. It could work, but we'd really recommend keeping your modules and pad sets matched for reliability, playability and ease of use.
@@longandmcquade Makes sense. Thanks you for your input!
I wanna play to my songs on my phone. Will I be able to connect my phone to the module?
It's not Bluetooth compatible, but there is a MIX IN input on the side of the unit so you can plug in any 3.5mm audio source. If your phone doesn't have a headphone out jack, there are usually adapters for your charging port you can use.
Can you change the bass drum pad to accomodate a double pedal
the bass drum pad can already take a double pedal.
can you connect audio input like your phone so you can hear the song you are playing and the drums through the same headphones?
Yes, there's a Mix In 1/8" input on the left side of the module that allows you to plug in any device like a phone or iPod to play along to.
@@longandmcquade thanks a lot for the quick response probably going to buy this one then :)
Cause i am really new in e-drums and iam going to buy this Roland Kit.
I wanna ask ,can i connect it to a laptop and somehow got more kits other than the 15 preset kits,or build one with the sounds that i want?
Thank you in andvance ,it will be very helpfull if someone answer me .
Yes, there is a USB-MIDI interface built into the TD-1 module, allowing you to connect it to a laptop and use software or a VSTi for more drum sounds. However there is no way to edit or modify the sounds internally included in the module, so you'll always need to be connected to the laptop to use the sounds coming from Superior Drummer or whichever software you use.
@@longandmcquade Thank you very much!
@@chrischris9221 You're welcome, happy drumming!
i bought this drum last week. How can I record from the computer? Is a sound card essential? I tried it on the reaper as a midi, but I want to record with the drum's own sound.
If you want to record the sounds from the module, you'd need to plug the L/R audio outputs from the module into an audio interface.
Is it possible to add another crash cymbal to this kit?
Joe Abando yep
It is comptatible with windows 10? Thanks
Yes.
Does the snare have sidestick sound?
Yes, the snare pad is dual-zone (head and rim) but the tom pads are single-zone.
what is the best price you can get me on these druums
Currently $999. www.long-mcquade.com/116940 If you find a lower price anywhere else in Canada and it's in stock, we'll match it.
The distance from the top of the rim to the drum surface seems a lot deeper than an acoustic kit. If I wanted to use the Roland as a practice kit, I am wondering how to cope with the difference.
The rim really isn't that much higher than a normal acoustic kit. The difference is negligible. If there is any difference, it could easily be overcome by tilting the pad a degree or two more towards you. Don't forget that the rim is a second zone with its own cross-stick sound applied to it, so Roland wouldn't want to make the rim so low-profile that it was difficult to trigger.
@@longandmcquade That all makes perfect sense. Cheers
How you rec drams ritm from roland???
I think you can record but will not be able to extract or use it outside the module
What's annoying are the flimsy walkman style audio outs. XLR or at least cinch connectors would have been in order.
XLR connections are professional-level connectors. They would not be found in beginner-level equipment like the TD-1 module because they're not expected to be used in a professional setting. XLR outputs are found in their flagship modules.
@@longandmcquade Stupid excuses... The ultra portable version of that kit costs a grand. Nobody who spends that on a drum kit wants to plug it in by a tiny, flimsy connector, that can't really support the weight of the cable...
My SQ5 doesn't have inputs like that, and that connector isn't really strong enough to hold the weight of the cable without early death.
XLR connectors aren't some kind of rare flower, you know...
“Percussion Support Specialist” …stop it!! 😂
Stop what? That's the man's job at Roland and he's pretty damn good at it too!
Can I adjust the pads and cymbals individually? Equalizer etc...
Unfortunately not. Those are more advanced features sound on intermediate-level kits such as the TD-17.
@@longandmcquadeOh, I see. and what about individual pad sounds, like a china on a tom, SD card sounds, or USB sounds?
Thanks a lot!
