The TD-17KVX2 Electronic Drum Kit That Plays Like an Acoustic
If you regularly play acoustic drums, you shouldn’t have to change or compromise your style with an electronic kit. The TD-17KVX2 lets you use the same acoustic playing techniques, thanks to the large 12-inch snare and a natural feeling hi-hat that can be mounted on your preferred standard acoustic hi-hat stand. And with a supremely playable collection of kits on board, you’ll experience the authentic character and tone of acoustic drums with lightning-fast response time.
The TD-17KVX2 lets your technique and expression shine through, backed with inspiring training tools to push you further. A 12-inch mesh-head snare and newly developed thin cymbals across the board deliver a high-end experience that’s stunningly close to playing acoustic drums. Meanwhile, an array of built-in coaching functions track your technique, measure your progress, and increase your motivation every day. Explore a variety of new kits and effects, plus additional sounds at Roland Cloud. With the TD-17KVX2, the journey to becoming a better drummer is faster than you can imagine.
Realistic Pads for Uncompromising Performance
The TD-17KV2 and TD-17KVX2 kits come with enhanced snare and cymbal pads for an even more authentic drumming experience. The 12-inch PDX-12 snare and 10-inch PDX-8 tom pads feature tension-adjustable mesh heads for customizable acoustic-like response and rebound. In addition, the PDX-12 has a traditional hoop height to hit open rimshots with a natural stick angle. Both kits also include newly developed thin V-Cymbals that attach to the stands with a special pivot mount, providing acoustic-style swing motion and stick response when played.
Ideal for Perfecting Hi-Hat Techniques
The TD-17KVX2 comes with the VH-10 V-Hi-Hat, which uses a single-cymbal floating design that mounts on a traditional acoustic hi-hat stand. It provides the same playing feel as an acoustic hi-hat, with a natural rebound and authentic swinging motion when you strike the pad. And with bow/edge triggering and smooth open/closed sounds, you can execute traditional playing techniques to perfection. {Just like an acoustic drum set, to give you maximum versatility manufacturers of quality drum sets do not include a hi-hat stand because each drummer will have their own preference for quality, style, design, and brand of hi-hat stand}
Great Sounds Lead to Great Performances
The TD-17’s sound engine delivers a superior drumming experience, thanks to its advanced onboard Prismatic Sound Modeling. Just like acoustic drums, you can play with wide dynamic range and dramatic tonal changes depending on where and how hard you strike the pad. From rimshots, rolls, flams, and ghost notes on the snare to natural hi-hat transitions, dramatic crash hits, sustained cymbal swells, and more, every nuance is detailed, accurate, and ultra-smooth.
The Feel of an Acoustic Kick Drum (but Quieter)
A nice, solid kick drum usually comes with a nice, loud noise. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want, but your family or neighbors may not feel the same. The KD-10 Kick Pad absorbs most of the impact noise thanks to its carefully engineered rubber components and cushion, all while retaining that satisfying acoustic kick drum “thud” when a beater is buried in a full-size head. In addition to keeping the noise down, the versatile design is compatible with all standard kick pedals, both single and double {of course just like acoustic drum sets, manufacturers of high quality drum kits do not include a bass drum pedal because each drummer will have their own preference of quality, style, design, and brand}.
Slimmer, Low-Profile Cymbals
All cymbals in the TD-17 series feature thinner profiles than previous generations, offering more natural movement and improved stick feel. Each cymbal can also be choked simply by grabbing the edge—just like a real acoustic cymbal. The 14-inch CY-14R-T ride cymbal even includes three-way triggering with independent sounds for the edge, bow, and bell.
