All user reviews for the Roland TD-9KX

- I have this kit for 5 months now.

- I hsit with rubber pads MODEL a question of price but APRS having a short essay in the store I cracked. The touch of skin mesh is fairly close to an acoustic drum so as not to disrupt the game when switching from one another. It's a bit diffrent for the cymbals and the kick pad.

The sounds of the modules and can be finished rglage sduire me in this trial.
Over time j'apprcie The variety of sounds available. It lacks all of the same 2 or 3 sounds and hi-hat cymbal crash (which could have no problem replacing some or electro percussion sounds). Some sounds are Toms ... surprising. We often ended up using the same sound (maple in my case). The possibility to change the length and height of each of the permits will integrate the best in kits or even radically change with extreme rglages (eg a snare "Heavy" with a tuning +40).

The 3-zone pad Ride brings a bit of thanks to ism DIFFERENT Sounds: bell, head, rim (Edge). You can always assign a crash instead of a ride-Edge.

The kickpad rubber can fail to rebound.

The sensitivity of the pad snare is good and allows bearings "ralistes" (even when we hear a little bit of electronic cot when you're in the low amplitudes). the "cross stick" and the "rimshot" also participate in ism.

The hi-hat pedals may be is not the best of this kit, you must do something rglages if we want to emphasize the kicking game.

The kits "brush" is used for plans folk.

While the ism must not be pushed too suprieurs The models in more onreux (which I can only assume), but it is enough for the amateur that I have exercised in his corner without embter (too) its neighbors and having fun.

The reverb is very usable, many rglage, the shipment is dosed per instrument for each part in this kit sounds ism. A Eq is also available to offset the weaknesses of a headphone.

- The other e-drums I've experienced were: a kit with RCup Pad Simmons (the old stuff hexagonal plywood covered with rubber) with a trigger and a Roland DR550 branch as well as Midi a one and a DTXPLORER td3K quickly tried in stores.

- It's Roland is not given but of Contents e-drum, to have sensations close rel must pay the price (APRS there may be both for less). However, the price is close to a mid-range acoustic kit complete with scrap.

- I would do without this choice hsiter. I could try it in the store o I bought a TRS prices close to those practices on the Internet (1850th beginners 2009) with a headphone, a stool and a pair of chopsticks first prize, and I was able o win in a row and rgler in 3 times (home of the drumkit, Dijon), which finally convinced me.

EDIT 03/04/10

The cot "gun" can be attnu by editing the Advanced Settings of the trig (scan time, retrig cancel, etc. ...). The trigger rglages strongly influence are obtained, they both multilayer, if we use a sensitivity leve it too is still in heavy vlocits and sounds with a lot of attack.

APRS use more live, the module shows some limitations. You really rgler triggers to grate onions for the sound and the level of every keystroke including, with the snare ghost notes.
For use on scne clearly lacks two direct outputs (1 for the kick and one for the mini CC) to grate the dynamics of these two sounds separately.
For cons, the time gained to settle and make the balance ... and convenience of scne games (well especially for musicians ...). Sounds in such uses are plenty good (if you compare a brief sound in a small room forcment not made for music ...), APRS comparison has an acoustic I think not really object.

Regarding the rest of the kit he holds up in a little over a year rate of 4 hours a week, ten outputs (so much disassembly / reassembly) no report. May be a small decrease in the sensitivity of the cymbal pads (and KD8 but no longer a problem).

I am using more than 3 pads, the 4th PD85 replaces KD8 through a menu yourself. The rebound for the bass drum is much better.

With the release of the Alesis DM10 rcemment I rflchirais certainly hold the investment REPRESENTATIVES TD9 kit if I were to make this choice today. The DM10 has INTERESTED CHARACTERISTICS (supplmentaire output, fader faade, USB connection, possibility of future load banks recognized publishers ...), do the sounds will also be usable.

-How long have you use it?
since January 17, 2010, sensational gift for my 30th birthday!

-Have you tried many other models before buying it?
No, some acoustic and some electronic.
My desire to acquire a drumkit dates back to college. Along the way, the idea of ​​a mail I found a reasoned choice and TD9 KX struck me as a compromise more than adequate with all meshed skin remo ...

-What is so special that you like most and least?
The +: the module very instinctive, easy to access.
the -: the kickpad KD-8 kick drum frankly lacks realism.

-How do you price / quality ratio?
fulfill a dream here is priceless but you have to keep right. This drumkit is really not given, but the reliability is to go. I pass, I sit back, I play, and I still have the satisfaction!

With experience, you do again this choice?
holy grail yes.I have my!

For years I rvais giving me a drumkit, but given the lack of space and my desire to avoid bursting the eardrums of everyone I opted for a drumkit Electronic: the Roland TD9-KX (bought in May 2008)
The models I knew DJ and TD6 TD6-KW-KX (I tried them in store)
So in my mind I compare myself with these limits Fawn 2 MODELS. I also tried real drums. I prcise that I am a little amateur discovering the drumkit.

To return the TD9-KX, TD9 module much smaller than the former. It is very easy to use. a USB is finally implanted, even if it is limited by the use of the WAV (cl prvoir a big if you're having fun with his own pieces - play it - because the WAV format takes a lot of memory). The usual headphone jack is Submitted. The pieces of music Intgr are excellent (even me after a mtalleux m'clate I play jazz / blues and other styles ^ ^) and Varis. We can eliminate the different instruments (drums / guitar / instruments complmentaires)
The module possde the output / input is needed can be added lments supplmentaires 2, two sheets (MIDI OUT / IN).

There is a mtronome, a scope (sync / not sync? ^ ^). CRER can own drum kits, register on the module and copy everything on the USB key. The number of available sounds is great trs.
Each cymbal possde 2 sensors for 2 DIFFERENT sounds or 3 for the cymbal CY12R / C (Rimshot / head / bell)
The "skin" of cash / volumes are really enjoyable and rpondent property - rglage possible to the sensitivity of the Tone rsonance.

Here is my opinion on the sounds of lments drumkit:
Snare: ok even if at times a sound "electronic"
Bass drum: good sound
Cymbals - Crash / Splash: excellent sound
Cymbals - Ride: trs good sound
Cymbals - Chinese: trs good sound
Charleston many possible settings with excellent
Toms: I feel like its an "electronic" - I think I still need to refine his rglages for a really convincing

Overall, I'm really happy with the sound that sounds "real" (versus a true drumkit), especially the cymbals, even if at times seems a sound "electronic".

The packaging is really good Submitted each element of the drumkit compartment, all feel the quality workmanship. The installation of the unit is very easy. We can rgler the position of each cymbal as desired.
Transport the remains to see how everything easily?? I will have a gimmick.
Even if it is true that much smaller drumkit, even when it takes the place (1m10 wide / 90cm deep / 120cm high)

His real only complaint would be its price: in 1864, but given the good quality and I wanted to get the drumkit finally we must make sacrifices

A small rsumbr /> the +: the sounds (especially the cymbals), trs TD9 module complete and easy to use, the quality of the matrial, the USB plug, size, input es / O, music intgres, etc..
the -: some sounds "electronic" (especially the toms), price, no support for MP3

I think I have said all, for me it will be a 9 / 10.

Edict of 22/12/08

This is my first Roland and I'm not on it.
The grip is trs trs simple! This new module is ergonomic, small, efficient and friendly. Rglage opportunities are impressive and the efficiency of the whole is terrible!
Many superlatives you might say! Well yes, but there is a small BMOL; toms - I'm a little above the sounds on offer, having said that, by refining its rglages a little and adding a little reverb, you get trs a rsultat correct!
Kx version is really excellent! If your budget stuck, go back to a version K but do not waste the investment seen in skin cells; changed all
(FYI, there's approx. 750 pad)

I also played in groups on acoustic drums! Warning: you will never have the same sound or feel the same game or the same fun with a Vdrum! But with the TD9 kx, it comes close .. The advantage and be able to vary styles and pleasures with a single instrument, and hundreds of recorded sound and modular-pr ... and hope is in the eardrums +

Have fun and all good buy

How long have you use it?
a friend went on vacation three weeks this month of August, lent me his.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
first electrical drumkit that I tested really.
6 years since I played on acoustic.

Most:
Ben it is clear that n 'is not much positive in this machine.
May be the only + is that given the size of the pokey pads can be useful for precision work.
But it's good to Cheros pad training. rebont skin mesh correct.

les:
tested with headphones seinheiser hd-650
the sound is dead, no relief, synthetic, a platitude maddening, very brief mail.
are very curly and roll machine gun, it's like in a fps. Hearing quite a hassle.
Sensation play almost non-existent: one without stand charley ridiculous, I board not play a retouve acoutique. Pads and cymbals too small. Feeling of being compressed by the narrowness of the kit. There are also beautiful hole in the dynamics.
In short it's more a toy than a musical instrument.

How would you rate the quality / price?
For € 2000 you aurra of stuff real good acoustics.

With experience, you do again this choice?
When my friend returned I told him quickly restored. He thought that I sell it .... lol

Short in the end this type of machine may be suitable for hip-hop or rap r'n'b, but make music go your way.

For how long have you been using it?
I use it for 3 months.

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Not by mail, but I play acoustic for 4 years.

What thing do you like most/least about it?
What I like about this model:
The skin mesh, the quality of the module (for richness sounds, ease of use, sound quality is delivered, and the ability to connect a line in the module), the rack is very well edited and easy to use cymbals as well as having excellent reactivity.

What I like least:
Disappointed by charley and the double bass drum kit. I do not have a double pedal, so I'm forced to play using the hihat pedal to simulate one second bass drum. But to accompany closed hihat is difficult because most of the area has also become a bass drum! It just has the edge to "strike". It is not clear.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
I think the quality is excellent, you can put the price for this brand.
I do not regret that choice in any case it is a great tool!
