  • The Roland TD-27KV features a powerful and simple-to-use TD-27 Sound Module and advanced digital trigger pad technology in a lightweight electronic drum kit suitable for professionals and practice spaces alike.
    Included in the kit is a KD-10 kick drum, a 14" PD-140DS snare, three 10" PDX-100 toms, a VH-10 hi-hat, an 18" CY-18DR ride, a 12" CY-12C crash, a 13" CY-13R crash, and a rugged MDS-STD rack.
    The TD-27 Sound Module contains over 700 sounds with detailed controls to adjust tuning, sustain, and more. Built-in Bluetooth connectivity allows you to stream audio and midi to and from the unit, and extensive I/O options allow for easy integration of additional gear. Add your own samples via SD card and layer multiple samples per pad to make your own unique kits.
    Thomas Lang gives an overview of the TD-27KV-S and shows off the sound and strength of these new electronic drums.

      They are all crap! They break with that level of strikes in a month, then you loose your kit for a month and out shipping cost for repair, for a year's time. Good luck repairing a year later without having to buy costly parts and licking into a decent pizeo mailed to you. The price of upkeep and aggravation of shipping time lost on the kit should greatly depreciate the value of sale. The second you buy this kit it depreciates 75%

      Guy goes out of his way to tell you that the rag can withstand all kinds of playing and yknow i would assume durability wouldn't be something that they make compromises in when releasing cheaper kits. I own a td11 and i'm pretty sure there is no point to a durable rag if your cymbal's gonna die out less than a year later with not too frequent and gentle use.

    It seems that machine-gunning edrums are some of most precious memories of the 20th century that Roland decided to preserve and pass on to our grand-grand children. The same league as the Beatles and the Moon landing.

      @KalleBlixtHagholm 4 года назад +1

      NeewollaH * I recently got a used TD-12 and the toms used here sound a lot worse than the ones I use. There has to be better sounds than this somewhere in that module? I get that Roland has a certain sound which not everyone likes, but come on.

    • @neewollah6875
      @neewollah6875 4 года назад +1

      Karl-Fredrik Blixt Hagholm Roland latency is the best. no one in the E drum business can beat the quality in parts and feel of a Roland E kit. I have td11, td17, td25, and the td17 only beats the td25 in cymbal sounds and dynamics. Everything else in the td17 is very disappointing. Yes you can layer sounds and add your own ONE shot samples but you have to have high quality recording equipment to get that authentic raw crack from a snare. Or low end thud from floor Tom etc.... anyway this td27 sounds exactly like the td17. Fucking disappointing. Like I said it has awesome cymbal sounds and dynamics but it’s like when I started off playing acoustic drums years ago. I cared more how my drums where tuned and spent more money on a high quality snare than the trash can lid cymbals that I used. I would spend hours being super picky with how my snare and toms where tuned.

    • @KalleBlixtHagholm
      @KalleBlixtHagholm 4 года назад

      NeewollaH * Yeah, I like the feel (apart from the hot spots which are quite annoying), and it all seems well built. As far as sounds go, I am currently happy with my TD-12 (had a Yamaha DTXplorer before so big step up), but I will probably use a laptop sometime in the future. I will most likely not buy a more expensive drum module from Roland just for the sounds, it will only be if I need specific features or inputs.

    • @arsonne
      @arsonne 2 года назад +5

      I believe this. I think alot of people give Roland a bit too much flak. Yes they don't sound amazing directly out of the box, but they don't take much to sound pretty darn decent, and they are the ONLY BRAND that has the real quality of pads and cymbals. I have had Yamaha and Alesis kits and they just don't hold up to real playing.

    • @TonyDiaz.
      @TonyDiaz. 2 года назад +1

      @NegaArson I'm unsure whether this module has similar sounds to the TD07 module, but I have one, and most of the kits are pretty sweet sounding. Then again, I'm just a beginner, so it's my first electronic drum set.

    • @ADrowning
      @ADrowning 2 года назад +1

      First thing I did was adjust the sensitivity of the snare. I have the VAD306 and on my hardest hits was only reading 80%. This makes a massive difference to the sound of the snare sounding the way it should. I don’t know why but with Roland the snare is never correct out of the box but it is there!

      Well, I use EZDrummer 2 with the TD17. It is a completely different world. SD3 is probably even better. But for the moment EZD is enough for my needs.
      I would argue, that the 10" pads of ATV are as good as the Roland ones and if you don´t care about money, DrumTec makes the best acoustic sized e-drums in my opinion. But I haven´t played the new Roland ones yet. Still, especially on the bass drum of Roland I dislike, that it is basically only a KD10 in a bigger drum shell.

    • @robertlucas9867
      @robertlucas9867 4 года назад

      I think superior drummer is owned by a rival company or affiliated with one that competes with Roland so I doubt that will happen. But Roland is too stubborn and stuck up to do that. They have a loyal fan base that will spend $400 on a pad that cost a few dollars to make. Piezos are cheap, made around 1800’s I think. I don’t love the hardware because I’ve had it fail on me and mistriggers. When playing in different environments it is effected no matter if the foam cones are new or old. Piezoelectric has brass and ceramic pieces that are effected by cold and humid temperatures.

      @DP 91 He's an absolute legend no doubt. He's a great clinician and technician. I just feel like the word master gets thrown around a lot these days based on certain players technical facility on the kit. To be considered one of the true masters though, for me speaks to much more than technique. It's first and foremost about musicality and contribution a player has made to the broader music communitynot only drummers (I have not heard many great bass players, guitarists, singers, producers etc even mention lang). It speaks to the recordings they have featured on and the great live performances (with other musicians not solo) they are renowned for.

    Honestly, the sound should be the least of your worries. Any built-in sound presets can't beat EZdrummer anyway, not even Roland VAD-706 module in my opinion. You can't really get anything better than Roland TD-27KV in that price range. It's not even a discussion, it's a fact. Roland is just far ahead of the competition. That's not just my opinion - every drummer will tell you the same.

    • @podhditalia
      @podhditalia 4 года назад +27

      don't agree. cheaper models also mean less sensitivity, less dynamic pad "areas", and the likes. you need high quality, high-engineered pads AND a good sampler. a BS kit with SD3 won't cut it. otherwise what's the point of having 1000 dynamic layers when your kit will "read" only 2?

    • @OnBendedKneeMusic
      @OnBendedKneeMusic 4 года назад +3

  • @CeciShaw
    @CeciShaw 4 года назад +7

    I like the kit and all the pads. I just wished Roland would move into Present Time and allow full VST integration into the Module. So many great companies making good drum sounds out there. Not just sample import but full VST into the module, who wants samples with no dynamics? Most people will plug this into a laptop and use software. Roland kits do last forever and they are very reliable live and in studio.

And here’s why with Roland tuning and FX I’ve heard people say that type of think Roland does makes it to difficult for them to put in the VST they would have to make there own that’s what I heard atleast it’s becuase of all the FX Reverb tuning stuff like that

  • @OnBendedKneeMusic
    @OnBendedKneeMusic 4 года назад +1

    Just by a used Roland, Yamaha kit (you can find them for around $500) and trigger Addictive Drums or Superior Drummer. REAL drum samples that sound incredible. More than a few great albums I know of have been recorded using that software.

    I have this kit and hardware/brain module wise, its freaking OUTSTANDING. Simply the best E-Kit you can buy imo. Absolutely love it. The triggering and nuance is near perfect. BUT.......... The included sample kits are terrible! Roland really needs to let a "drummer" design/pick the pre-installed kits included because they weren't even close to anything useful or sound nice imo. Even just one kit in there, just as a standard, crisp generic drum kit off the music shop showroom floor would even suffice?!?! I immediately went in and designed my own setup, which yes, you would or should do anyway and yes, the module has some great sounding various instruments and I've been able to craft some great sounding kits I love. But again, its biggest downfall is the quality and variety of kit/instrument variations. It may have over 700 sounds, but heaps in there are "filler" garbage that I'll never use (yes, you need sounds in there to satisfy all musical influences, fair enough).
    Anyways, it sux's to have a "ranty" comment, as I immensely enjoy and love my TD27, I've even upgraded the Bass drum to an acoustic type for better presence (but still using the KD10) and used other acoustic elements to build a hybrid kit. So if Roland somehow see's this ....... outstanding kit, but give us some better kit samples in future firmware updates please? We pay a hefty sum for these kits, I think we deserve it?

      @andrewhigdon8346 4 года назад

      So you post this several days after most of the Western World mourns the loss of a great athlete. Thomas Lang is really good at drums. But he’s no Kobe Bryant. Kobe is a little stiff on drums nowadays. Actually he’s stiff on everything since his forced retirement. Maybe when Thomas dies he’ll be as good as Kobe.

    • @DaveMacLeanPT
      @DaveMacLeanPT 4 года назад

      Andrew Higdon you’re an idiot. Thomas Lang to drumming is what Kobe Bryant was to basketball, in my opinion. I was and am a massive Kobe fan. My comment in no way is disrespectful. It’s a comparison that is timely, despite the unfortunate circumstances of Jan 26, 2020. I was strictly comparing to great talents. RIP Kobe.

    • @andrewhigdon8346
      @andrewhigdon8346 4 года назад

      Dave MacLean good god man. I just though the timing and comparison were bad on your part so I made a bad joke, presumably comparable. Whoopsy I mean how can you compare a living and breathing great drummer with an athlete whose death is still fresh on the mind? I figured maybe you didn’t know Kobe had died or were saying that Thomas was maybe ready to retire. Ok so fuck me running. Maybe if Neil Peart was doing that demo, or compare to Michael Jordan.

    I''ve always been confused by electric drums in 2020 that have not integrated drum software like superior drummer that has been around for soo long, or at least used their money to develop their own decent sounds. I had an older Roland a few years back. It seems like the sounds have actually been getting worse, not better. Either way. The key to playing electronic drum sets is to not play soo many notes. you need to use loose phrasing. Lang wasn't the best guy to demonstrate this lol. Also, even though the stock drum sounds are bad, they sound better with other instruments in the mix.

      THE FUTURE OF DRUMS (you heard it here first!).... is MICRO-kits (NOT expensive and clumsy "cocktail" kits). I spent $200 for a Ludwig Jr kit that has everything in MINIATURE size (!!!) --- LOOKS incredible! [Plus I decorated it wild.] I tweaked it all, ditched the great small cymbal stands and tiny floor tom (!), cable-tied two drumsticks vertically to the two mounted toms as Cymbal Stands (!), attached almost everything to the KICK drum... and VOILA. Takes me 30 seconds to set up outdoors, outta my van. I also get to practice and rehearse with others INSIDE my easily-tricked out van!! ($2K passenger van. Lever lets you pull out two back seats. ALready furnished and insulated! I then put in gold glitter curtains and red xmas lights and pillows and hellll yeah!! I show it off everywhere and every musician is super-jealous and wants to do it. In nice weather, I can go ANYWHERE and play outdoors [either inside the van with all the windows open, or I pull the drums out and play in nature!!!] [AND i get money tips... to practice! John Bonham and Neil Peart and Buddy Rich didn't!] PLUS MY DRUMS SOUND FANTASTIC, and so every drummer who tries them out goes nuts. Oh, being smaller in size, they fit even easier inside my van!) Most drumkits are DUMBkits: excessive big and loud. More laborious etc.
