I Got To Play Roland's 5 New Drumsets: Here Are My First Impressions

Roland just came out with five new drumsets, 3 TD17 modules, a new TD25KVX module, and the TD50KVX. I got a chance to play all of them. This video is a overview of all the new kits with brief playing examples. I'll be doing dedicated videos about the specific drumset later this week :)
Initial thoughts: The TD17 line is great and well priced. The TD25kvx is a bit expensive for the module it has, and the TD50KVX is probably the best all in one kit on the market right now, but it cost as much as a lambo ;)

Justin, I really enjoy your videos. They are so helpful, and I am learning a lot. I really appreciate your very direct, honest, and to the point approach. Very helpful and informative.

[@Legion_Q_]

Finally going to get my first drumset with the TD17 KVX and boy I’m glad I waited a couple of extra months. I gotta thank you for all of the inside info for helping me decide on waiting

[@1977eliasfigueroa]

I'm on the same boat! I wanted the TD-30se or the TD-25KV... but now, I'm thinking about this TD-17KVX!

[@kikibeldandy]

same here, thanks to Justin. I would have gone and got the td25k if it was'nt for Justin saying that 17 is coming. 17kvx it is now for me.

[@jordytee1]

I have the td17 kvx and its soooooo good. Glad I got it

[@rodriguezelfeliz4623]

Are you rich? Hahaha

[@DavidJenkinsDrums]

Justin, thanks for another insightful video. Thanks to Roland for recognizing how much their customers value your perspective. We need, and expect you to have early access to Roland products. Great job all around!

[@DestinedConch]

Thank you very much Justin for this video, I have been really looking at the TD 17KVX because of what I get at that price point and was waiting for you to make a video about it. Super informative and can't wait for your more in depth videos. Keep up the awesome work.

[@1977eliasfigueroa]

WOOHOO, it's finally here! Been waiting for you brotha, LOL! (saw everyone else's... but... was REALLY waiting to hear what YOU had to say!) Keep up the GREAT WORK!

[@65Drums]

Thanks Elias!

[@jakelucas5588]

I got the alesis surge at first. I then realized electric drums opened a whole new world of creativity, coming from strictly acoustic for 15 years. Within one week I sent the surge back and got the td17kvx and never looked back.

[@links-awakening]

Kudos to you for getting into Roland. Great news, thanks :)

[@julsrique9148]

Cool video! Great effort in visiting Roland in Ca. Very honest your expretions! About the new line: The snare sensitivity and size is great. The latency issue that Rolland explain you is justifiable. Thanks for guide us! God bless Brother!

[@mtnfalcon]

I've watched a few of your videos while researching for a set for my daughter. You produce really high-quality, information-rich reviews. Much appreciated. Would love to see your review of the new TD-1DMK, in particular the simplified module vs those that come with the 11, 17, etc.

[@svarmaroskarsson4340]

Thanks for all your great videos! Great stuff. Onwards and upwards!

[@michaelschack]

Hey Justin, great video and great info for anyone looking for more info. And thanks for inserting those live performance images. Hope you're well & see you again soon. Cheers

[@tlimbeck]

Justin, I’ve learned so much from your channel. I’ve went from an Alesis Nitro to an AtoE Sonor Select Force conversion and I plan to by the TD17 next month. You’ve made my move from my house to a townhouse much more tolerable. Thanks man!

[@65Drums]

Thanks dude! Glad to know the channel has been helpful :D

[@peterfactora3843]

I have a select force bop kit i wouldn't mind converting to an edrum. Would you mind sharing how or where I can the info to do so? Thank you!

[@TraderRobin]

While touring from about 1988 to 1993, I used the Yamaha PTX-8 Digital Drums (state of the art, at the time). Boy, these new Roland kits are like a Quintilian steps up from those days!!

[@DrumCoversbyBill]

Awesome info as always, thanks for sharing! Have a great weekend!

[@apartmentdrummer_au]

G'day mate, top video - great level of detail and explanation. Cheers!

[@mickw7152]

Great channel there pal with nice insights and detailed info. You are a fine drummer too.

[@cadenceangel]

Awesome video Justin!! I was waiting for your vid on the Roland TD-17KVX!! I ve watched quite a few demo vids on it, and IMO it sounds terrific!! On the down sound, I was also disappointed that Roland was using the same TD-25 module on the new TD-25 KVX. Wished they had "upgraded" the TD-25 module or, as you said in your video, added the TD-30 module to that kit. The TD-25KVX looks amazing but as of now I m more excited about the TD-17KVX!!! Very helpful video as always Justin!!! Ty!!

[@JonathanTaylorW]

I'm excited about the TD-17 - I've just started looking at electronic drums and it seems to be exactly what I'm after, at a reasonable price. I want to really take advantage of the different sounds that I can get, so the fact that I can layer sounds, sample my own and make custom drum kits is awesome.

[@benjaminwatkins]

Justin you’re the man. From a fellow buckeye now in CA, thank you SO MUCH for all the care and knowledge you’ve imparted on us. You’ve saved me a ton of missteps and money. Anyone who has dipped their toes into video production knows it’s not easy. I want for us the community to pay you and keep you going and objective rather than wait for the corps to gobble you up. How can we send you $$ or support you otherwise?

[@benjaminwatkins]

Oh I just discovered the whole Patreon thing and answered my own question. Nice.

[@ChristopherJones-cjphoto]

Great intro to the new line. Your subjective comments are really on top of the details!! When you finally get to do the detail breakdown, please include a comment on how portable these sets are -is it hard to break down and setup, will it fit in a car without total breakdown, etc. Also, please give us. a few hits on each drum without playing a rhythm. Thanks Again- keep up the great work! -Patreon supporter.

[@nojnoj3069]

Thankyou Justin. Great informative video as usual and yes I too am a bit miffed about the super expensive 22" kick drum...........it's a bit like putting extra flash wheels on a brand new great sport's car........?

[@mikeyeyebrowz8119]

They lost their minds with the pricing on the TD-25KVX!!! I was in disbelief when I saw 4 grand

Sorry but I got distracted by your cool Captain America t-shirt, love it! By the way, I'm currently learning how to play the drums. Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@mfournier01]

Thanks for the inside info Justin! How lucky you were be able to go to the factory to test out the new gear! I hope they helped pay for the trip!

[@photoman52beta]

A great review Justin. You are very professional in your videos. You've really done your homework, and you provide the appropriate information viewers are looking for. I'm an old timer, but I do like where the technology is going with my favorite instrument. You break things down so I can also understand and appreciate the latest and greatest. I also like your playing style; you're loose in the arms and sticks and passionate about what you're doing. Just subscribed.

[@65Drums]

Thanks Steve! I work very hard to make the videos as good as possible :)

[@rad1ata]

I needed a kit right between the TD11KV and the TD25KV. It's like roland knew what I wanted and needed

[@markomarkovic5729]

I think that we all needed that :)

[@noemario2348]

I've been waiting for this video thanks​ dude.

[@65Drums]

Thanks for watching dude!

[@robertlucas9867]

Great video Justin. I'm glad you mentioned sound opinions and explained it the way you did. It is a hot topic. The price of the TD25 is too expensive especially since it is a breakout cable. Why not make a step down version of the TD30.

[@eucabusas]

Maaaan. Just a snap and you're all over the next big thing! I'd like to see you top this with a first hands-on review of the GEWA G9 when it's released!

[@jimstone6071]

Had my td17 kvx I’ve for3 weeks and it’s very solid and I like it ALOT........🙏🙏👍👍👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@65Drums]

It's a great set!

[@davidsierra6682]

Gotta tell you that I love my TD-30KV 6-piece set. For me, the perfect balance (and price point!) between the TD-50 and TD-25K. I'm set for a while!

[@philmarcondes1051]

Great stuff as always Justin - cheers from da Burgh ;)

[@Vdrumtips1]

Nice comparison. The price of the TD-25KPX has shocked me. You can almost get the TD-30K or even the new Pearl set for the same money. Besides, the TD-25KPX does not need stage presence as a module with no individual outputs is not made for the stage. And the price of the 22” kick drum is 1500 according to drum-etc. While the adapter costs only 350. Why should I not buy the adapter and a nice Pearl Bass drum and convert myself? The TD-17KVX is the best new release. I just filtered out everything from 1000-2000$ in terms of e-drum set and nothing can beat the TD-17KVX. This set will be a killer.

[@65Drums]

Hey :) I agree the price is just too high for that kit, should just buy a TD50k at that point. The TD17 kits are great though.

[@radrums7362]

The TD-25 is a great module for those of us who don’t face stages. For (very expensive) hobby purposes, it’s an outstanding module.

[@ENIGMVTIK]

Roland? Price-gouging customers? Well, color me gobsmacked...

[@robertlucas9867]

I agree with you V Drum Tips

Great review Justin, thanks, great channel!

[@65Drums]

Thanks Dima!

[@epicdanny11]

Gonna hopefully buy the 17KVX when Christmas comes around, seems really nice!

[@paulpuljic6855]

Bought my TD-11KV after Christmas. You warned me about the new line coming out. Still love my kit, but may go for the new larger snare and re-purpose the smaller one as an additional tom.

[@radrums7362]

65drums played an important part in this awesome module launch. I bet Roland watches his videos and agrees with most of what is being said here.

Great video Justin. I like the TD25kvx. I hope someday Roland would make a Flag ship with 5 Tom pads or the ability to have 5 tom pads. Might be over kill but that’s-the fun of it. Love the real bass drum too.

[@65Drums]

That would be cool

[@forzamicha46]

Thanks a lot.Great video as usual :)

[@christophervincent3520]

Thanks Justin. Another really informative video. Guess when you were out in Roland land you didn't get time to look at their TM-6 pro module. I realise it is marketed for hybrid work. However, if, like me, you can cope with 12 inputs and want USB recording it looks pretty flexible and may sound good with its new one-shot samples. Hope you get time to review one someday - thou guess you are pretty busy! Cheers Chris

[@65Drums]

Hi Chris, I did play the TM6 actually :) I just didn't talk about it in this video

[@christophervincent3520]

Thanks Justin Guess you had enough to do covering all the full kits. I have a small Jobeky kit and just need the right module. Hope you get time to feedback on the TM-6 Pro sometime - it's not really hit the UK yet or at least my hometown! Regards Chris

[@jer291113]

Justin thank you for your outstanding and honest reviews. I'm a beginner looking to buy my first edrum set, would the TD-17 KVX be too much for a beginner?

[@ZaxDrumsandGolf]

Cool informative video!! I played a Roland kit the other day not this one not sure which one but it was all mesh it felt nice!! I also tried Alesis to it also has a mesh pads but the sounds were not as good as Roland and the playability was not as good either!!

[@fabianvasquezjr8852]

I just added the Roland Td 17 module to my Alesis dm8 studio kit w/ a Yamaha top of the line kik tower and a DW 7002 double kik w/Trick drum dead beaters and Tricks cam shaft upgrade. The Td17 module is the best upgrade I've made to my kit it sounds awesome! Didn't really care for the presets but with alil tweaking on the Td17's easy user interface, the decent preset kits I liked just came to life, wow I'm impressed for just alil over 6 bones! But now I'v got to upgrade to some Roland pads & cymbals damn it, used of course but it's gonna look kind of stupid with a Alesis badge on the rack haha!!

[@youngguns996]

Great Stuff Justin! 👍

[@65Drums]

Thanks Enrique!

[@jonasnerlilerberg4127]

[@astronaut2005drummer]

The new TD-17 drum module is great. I need to replace my Roland HD-3. Thanks Justin for this video!

[@FranksDrumCave]

Love the TD 17KVX! Not having those volume knobs though :/. BTW, Sweetwater sells the equivalent of the TD 50KVX for $8000

[@TrummJohan]

Hi Justin, I wonder how do the td 17 sounds compare to the td 15? Also I want to ad that it is for me an advantage that the pads are small and compact making it easier to move along to gigs! Thanks for great video 😉

[@ihaveriffs8261]

The Roland kick pads I’ve tried in stores(not sure of the model) are way more sturdy than other brands. Regardless of the latest models, I’m ditching my Alesis and Simmons kick pads. Might even try the KT10 pedals and not use a pad at all, but I’m skeptical that it will do the trick.

[@robcolone8546]

Just traded my TD11K today for the td17kv. I actually found out about this kid on Monday and have been checking your page four times a day until I saw one set up at Guitar Center yesterday. Woke up this morning and brought them my old one and got this one. The only thing that sucks is it doesn't have a regular USB in, which I backed up my 11k drum kits to see if I could transfer them because it took me a long time to make all my custom kits and now I got to start from scratch. Luckily there's way more sounds than the 190 the 11 had

[@65Drums]

Glad you liked the video Ralph :) Roland modules only let you transfer kits between identical modules so I don't think that would work on the TD17. It's a great upgrade though

Unless you steal it, then you get what you don't pay for.

[@toddj.8245]

Drums look great love to be one of those 5 people Your kick doubles are amazing especially with a single kick pedal . On the last kit i did notice the high hat stand was shaking was it because it was not level or is that something to watch I used to own a Yamaha DTX and i would use a Tama hh stand iron cobra edition that worked amazing with the HH could you use any HH stand with these kits or do u need a roland stand ???

[@russpiraino9096]

Justin I have been watching your vids for a couple months. To say that trying to keep track of all the kits/components & assess the possibilities is dizzying! Have you made a spreadsheet w/ the different kits to make it more visual? You talk a little fast for my pea brain to process & if I could see it visually that would help. Love your reviews & thank you!

[@donniedevine2860]

I wasn't a big fan of the electronic drum sets, until I saw my IDOL * ( Neil Peart ) play a set in the studio. OMFG! ! ! They sounded just like the drums that he plays on stage with. Grant you, there were a few more drum pads, and a Roland Sampling Pad.

[@LH-zv2zq]

Play MORE of your chops, you got grooves! Any thoughts about a future vid where you demo several (or more) kit styles, e.g. latin, reggae, dance, marimba, etc on an e-drum? I'm only hearing everyone dial in the standard "rock" sound like those Roland's in this clip. Thanks for flying "us" out with you to Roland HQ.

[@e11world]

I played the TD17 KV but when I asked about the layering, the responses was only for internal sounds and not your own and basically it was almost a useless option from the way it was explained to me. I also played the Alesis Strike Pro Kit FINALLY and man the sounds just blew me away. I think it would possibly be a better option as a one drums to buy for life except for the hi-hat which was buggy still (I think even after they've upgraded it but hopefully others had better luck). This is cheaper so that is the better option for price and I guess lasts longer (not sure though)

[@williamsmithson2107]

Great stuff! Do you know if with the new TD25KVX can you buy that new base and snare separate?

[@bassistdc]

I'm a bass player not a drummer. I enjoyed this video.

[@TheBonsaiRonin]

I do like the new pads though. That's way better than what roland used to offer at that price. Does the k version use the ride edge for the bell like the td-11? Also wanted to say thank u for this channel and keep up the good work! It's been a priceless resource for me. I'd love to donate but I'm not in the position to... That's why I watch so many of your vids before buying anything!

[@zenos.5315]

Glad I checked this video out, I am now going to purchase a nice used acoustic set, nothing beats the sound of Maple wood and real cymbals, never liked the sound of any plug in kit

[@minidrummidary1246]

When I play my aroma Tdx-15S I always think of it as a Roland Td-17Kl

[@martymet]

Thanks for the video. My thoughts: I'm a fan of the TD-17. I think it looks great for the price, especially from Roland. As for the TD-17 and TD-25 modules, I don't mind the cable snakes as much as you seem to. But that's just an opinion of mine. I know a lot of people really don't like them. And I know the downside of them, but its just not a huge deal for me personally. I think that its great that they have a module in the price range that the new TD-17 is in! It seems like quite a robust module for 600 bucks and I think they're going to sell a lot of them because of that. In fact, I'm beginning to build an electronic set now, and am seriously considering that module to use. As for the TD-25kvx and especially the TD-50kvx, they look great but theyre both at a price range where, why not just make your own kit; will be half the price and look even better! So, in short. TD-17 YES! TD-25KVX and 50KVX, cool but, not worth the money.

[@mel2401]

It's the Wintersun drummer in the advert btw.

[@journeyseb]

Excellent vid Justin! How did you like the TD-50KVX?

[@65Drums]

[@shadowbrothers2]

I’m saving up for one of these witch one should I get and I want one that I can play along with my songs on my phone ?

[@etpslick100]

I’m a bass player but wanted a drum module for the studio. The Roland TD17 to me sounds the best for the price! I may get the TD 17 and get a different kit to hook up. Someone told me to look at Drum-Tech. I’ll probably make that move.

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

love it!!

[@BW_Drums]

Great video, Justin. Pleasantly surprised with how Roland have priced the TD-17 line. Probably great value for people who like the Roland sound. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people who absolutely cannot stand Roland's sounds. Even the TD-50 sounds extremely artificial to me. But, like you said, sound is subjective. I'm glad for the people who are looking for a Roland kit at this price point.

[@LSILVAPRODUCTIONS]

I was stoked to see this video. I had my eye set on a TD25k, but is there any reason to get a used TD25 over a TD17? Is the positional sensing worth it?

[@65Drums]

I don't think the positional sensing is worth it, the TD17KVX gives you a better kick pad and an extra crash cymbal.

[@garyo7522]

Curious if the VH-10 hi-hat will work with a TD-20, (or any older), module & I also read a rumor that the VH-12 won't work with the TD-17 module. If you could clear up those questions I would appreciate it. Thank you. I enjoy your videos, Justin.

[@johnfalcone3693]

Hopefully you can compare the TD17kvx against the Alesis DM10 MKii Pro. I bought the Alesis last week over the TD11KV because of features that have been added to the TD17. I don't think I'll exchange the Alesis yet, for 1300 it's a helluva solid kit besides the hi hat. Any insight to the pros and cons for both would be great!

[@SteveCoxDrums]

great first impressions video Justin. I've been waiting for this from you. I was watching the livestream and saw you recording the Michael Schack demo. lol. So how would you feel about buying the TD17 module (with BlueTooth) and the new Snare pad as upgrades to my TD-10? I love the fact the sound library is from the TD50 line

[@65Drums]

Glad you liked the video Steve! Yeah those would be nice upgrades to your TD10 kit

[@SteveCoxDrums]

Ideally, I would love to go with the TD-50 digital upgrade pack and a KDA-22 conversion, but that's pricey. I think going with the new TD17 Module, the PDX-12 Snare Pad and maybe the KD-180 would be a solidly competitive alternative?

[@madsnarerbrian]

Think u can make a video about what cymbal pads are best to use as a single piece hihat on a mount? I tried using a yamaha PCY135. its ok if u play on top but if u drop your arms to much u hit the edges and the edge of that pad is squishy so you lose rebound. im new to edrums and currently using the new alesis surge mest kit.

[@acidbath3226]

roland drums have always sounded great especially if they are mixed properly

[@kikibeldandy]

I like the 17kvx, nice snare, vh11 hat, new kd. The module sounds good, too bad did not have positional sensing.Do you think that positional sensing is gimmick or not? Anyways I am ordering 17kvx.

[@benmcculkin5174]

Can you please do Alesis DM 10X vs TD 17 KV Head to head...

[@Aussie_Badger]

Nice vid Justin!! The TD17-KVX is definitely well priced for what you get and is within reach for a lot of people price wise, which I’m happy to see coming from Roland. Personally I would probably just buy the module though. I think the Toms could have been a bit larger and while its great to see a larger snare on a mid-level kit, in every video I’ve seen it just looks flimsy and wobbles around too much for my liking. The TD25-KVX upgrade is just a complete waste of money if you ask me. Better off sticking with the TD25-KV for half the price and buying the V Expressions or Drumtec kit upgrade packs for the module.

[@robmiller817]

I agree completley on the 25kvx. It should have gotten something, maybe td50 sounds like the 17. Or a td 30 module. They missed the boat i think.

[@theostevenson9549]

Hey Justin, I was wondering how do the td 17 sounds compare with the td 15 sounds? Thanks, and great video 😉

[@65Drums]

It sounds better

[@SydneyDrums]

The high end TD50 is for drummers who make drumming their life, not just rich people. High end bicycles & golf clubs are really expensive too, as are many things. I see a lot of drummers saying they live & breathe drums but won’t make Drums their priority & wont spend $8k on Drums & will spend $30k on a car or sports truck. Drumming to me is my job, my passion, my lifetime commitment.. i never had money growing up so I had to work hard at crap jobs. So many drummers put price first.. I remember that I wanted a dw drum kit, took me so long to save up that the price changed a few times. Not the point because that’s what I wanted, not settle for an ok pdp instead.. I still have the dw & love it. Are you a hobby drummer or is drumming your life & you say you live & breathe Drums? That’s up to you to you & your priority & commitment..

[@brianarnett1708]

Hi Justin. I hope all is well. Thanks for sharing your impressions. I watched the event live in KZbin, and have watched a bunch of retail demos of the TD-17 lineup. I found myself pretty disappointed that my TD-25 module can't assign sounds to the tom rims, but the TD-17 can. Overall it seems like the TD -17 has more features than the TD-25 module, but at a lower price tag. Would you consider the TD-17 an upgrade to the TD -25 module? A downgrade? Or just different but somehow equal? Do you think adding new features (like tom rim sounds) to the TD-25 through a firmware update is even a possibility? Or is the TD -25 now considered "legacy" hardware?

[@sidthecopdrummer]

Man You are very lucky that you got to play TD50KVX ;)

[@sidthecopdrummer]

Man presently I hv Roland TD9KX2 kit but I am planning to Buy TD 25KVX.... If I am playing for just some jamming n rare shows so will it be a nice kit 4 this purpose????? Bt I loved The TD 30K drum kit most... Bt it's too expensive in India..... Even I want to add & use too many cymbals in it... So what's ur review regarding this matter???? Btw one more question What is your review regarding Alesis STRIKE PRO KIT????

[@gregwilliams2764]

I’m new to the ekit possibilities. I have an acoustic set and I want add Roland triggers . I want the TD-17 module and midi it to my laptop with ezdrummer. I saw it on KZbin and was blown away. Do I need the the Yamaha mixer I’m buying to mic my kit or can I plug directly into speakers? Direct box also when not using the mixer ? Thanks very much, Greg
