Full Description

Roland TD-1KV V-Drums Electronic Drum Kit

An acoustic drum kit needs to be set up to play a specific style of music, so you're stuck with one type of sound. The TD-1KV electronic kit offers you much more versatility. At one practice session, you can rock hard with a heavy bottom-end sound, then instantly change kits to recreate the sound of your favourite band. Every kit reacts just like the acoustic and electronic kits they emulate, giving you a huge range of variety in one compact, standalone instrument. Explore various different styles of music from rock and blues to jazz, world music, EDM and more with the touch of a button.

Some drummers avoid electronic drums; worried they won't play like their acoustic counterparts. There's no need for concern with the Roland TD-1KV - it fully supports essential acoustic playing techniques, which is especially important for beginners to learn to play correctly. Every drum sound offers a wide dynamic range and natural tone, and the PDX-8 mesh-head snare provides an authentic feel with independent head and rim triggering. Unlike typical entry-level sets, the TD-1KV's cymbals include the advanced expressiveness found in all TD-series V-Drums modules, including bow and edge sounds and support for cymbal chokes. The hi-hat reacts to the nuances of your footwork, bringing personality and character to your playing. Great drumming is all about feel, and so is the TD-1KV.

Great for learners, whether you're teaching yourself to play, studying regularly with an instructor, or simply want to keep your skills polished, the TD-1KV has a wealth of enjoyable functions to encourage learning. Think of this kit as your own live-in drum teacher and personal backing band, packed with tutorial features that develop technique, boost motivation, and help you get the most out of practice time. You can use Coach mode to build and maintain speed, stamina, and accuracy, or play along with the onboard metronome to tighten up your timing. Get ready for your first band by jamming with the internal songs in the sound module, or connect a smartphone or music player via the Mix In jack and drum along with your favourite tunes. With the onboard recording function, you'll get instant feedback of your progress as well as quickly capture and playback a new fill or creative groove.

Traditional acoustic drums are extremely loud. Playing them at home is fun for you, but can be a problem for everyone else around! Quieter operation is a major benefit of electronic drums, and the Roland TD-1KV is particularly quiet where it counts, thanks to the sound module's headphone jack and the noise-reducing design of the mesh-head PDX-8 snare and the tom/cymbal pads. The TD-1KV reduces the volume of your drumming with the beater-less pedal design, meaning you won't be annoying the neighbours. You can further reduce noise transfer to other rooms below with the optional NE-10 Noise Eater units that can be used under the kick and hi-hat pedals.

The TD-1KV is not just fun to play by itself - it's also a great way to make music with your computer. Included is a built-in USB-MIDI interface, making it simple to communicate with music software via just a USB cable, with no extra hardware needed. Maybe you'll transfer your playing into your computer-based recording software, capturing a live drum feel in your latest masterpiece. Or perhaps you'll use Roland's free V-Drums Friend Jam series applications, which offer jam tracks, practice features, and the ability to compete with V-Drums users across the planet. For more in-depth education, the powerful DT-1 V-Drums Tutor provides a fun, dynamic platform for learning notation and essential drum techniques. Whatever application you chose, the TD-1KV is a drum kit that lets you go places.
