[@DonGWard]

This is the best demo of this kit I've seen here - knows the kit and how to play it. I'm still hesitating about buying this but this is a very good sales pitch!

[@garycitro1674]

I just got one of these cheaply, and boy do I love your playing. You really know how to use all of those sounds tastefully. As I am mainly a keyboard player, I really don't feel a need to do anymore than what you did if I could ever get to that level. Some of these new virtual kits have 200 drum sets, but if you know how to use 10 like you do, you should get by just fine.

[@jachconi]

I just purchased a Simmons SD600 and am returning it. It sounds like garbage compared to my Roland

[@AlexanderSmith7]

Thanks for the video. You did a great job of introducing the kit and it's different voices.

[@padcfc82]

Mate this is a cracking vid!! Absolutely smash the hip hop beats!!! Especially with the scratching sounds!!!

[@bobbyswamp]

Great demo, thanks for showing this, man. I'm considering this kit due to the compact size and simplicity for a novice, non-drummer like me! The sounds are pretty good, to my ears.

[@cranbournemusiconline]

@Tulljfette I dunno, I think it could still do with more cowbell.

[@HereIsmarcus]

It doesn't come with any kind of case. I put the symbols , snare and floor tom in a little pack pack. The rest I put in a little trolley that people here in Spain use for shopping. Most people live in flats so they need a shopping trolley to move groceries. It's 23 x 60 x 40cm and has two wheels. The rods and remaining drums and pedals go in there no problem. I love these drums. Thanks.

[@stanburdick9708]

Have heard about these for a long time but 1st time hearing these and am amazed! does the sound come thru the headphones ?? if so how can you playing along with something that needs headphones?

[@Jcbproducoes]

you can actually change the sound of the metronome by running it and then hold any of the numbers from 1 to 5 and hold the variation st the same time, wait about 3 seconds release, restart the metronome and you have another sound there

[@matthewjohnson6406]

Great job ✊!

[@xizombiex]

this guy totally convinced me to buy dis

[@donaldsaunders4736]

Nice kit

[@aegirmeingott]

it is! play it. if i would know before how fun it is i‘d started 100 years ago.

[@GLCover]

@tasfa10 the point is to give you the maximum number of sounds and options in the minimum price

[@aviduke]

Amazing

[@Subilon]

Although I will say the idea of having an all in one e drumkit is a good one easy to transport easy to set up and the sounds are very goof

[@Superhamsterofdoom]

You can not change the sounds in the module. I'm sure what you mean is to use a VST like Superior Drummer and map the triggers through MIDI.

[@roysuherman6105]

waoow...very cool maan i like it

[@odysseasX]

The metal mode is awesome mostly because of the double bass, but the worst thing about the whole kit is the cowbell. Who in his right mind would do that? The cowbell doesn't belong in a metal kit. Seriously, if I find the one that had this idea, I would beat his ass with a real cowbell. It's really fucking stupid to replace the tom 2 with it.

[@Subilon]

@southsaturndelta220 to be honest my opinion is that e kits only simulate acoustic drums but can never substitute for the feel of an acoustic kit I have both and I enjoy playing both but approaching them for what they are not what I want them to be hope that helps

[@willifordmike53]

Nice sound, Great drumming! I have an HD 1 and my number 1 kit is not a Rock on either setting? Also I find the potentiometer bass drum set-up really unresponsive but your kit seems to sound much better, my kit is quite used though.

[@yanarjuna4666]

Good job !

[@amandadockery4457]

Why didn't they release an HD-2 for the Roland electronic drum kit

[@aly1170]

im thinking o starting out drumming, would this be a good begginer kit then?

[@DrumsPotato]

kit 2 with variation rocks

[@aungkaunghein]

However, it doesn't matter. You can explain very well about Roland Hd-1. Thanks.

[@sne60]

what a brilliant technic you have -are you playing from what gordy knutson calls from the back of the hand?

[@papaifelps]

Nice video! This is will be my first drum kit ever. Am I doing the right choice?!

[@Rexillo1830]

I've never had an electric drum kit, and out of curiosity, can you add more pads and electric cymbals to the kit?

[@hukicharishuka]

Can you connect aux cable to the module to play music?

[@Subilon]

Oops I meant the sounds are very good!

[@1wunPlanet]

will you be doing any alesis drum kit? DM6? I like your demonstration and review!

[@BEStrongDrummer]

@imdrumzer Brandon Saller does

[@mrseantaylor1]

@imdrumzer the rev did for one of his songs but i would really wouldnt call it a cow bell but mike portnoy has a couple

[@TheKeswickGallagher]

@imdrumzer The Excellent Metal Drummers.

[@williamwilbur]

I wind my dog up with the 5 Variation kit! The noise sound with the alarm.

[@MrCloudRazor]

Every good metal drummer :) Everything get's better with cowbell

[@angeriod]

@linelipe save up for like a roland TD-9k2 realllly goood set.

[@mcduffchannel]

how many pesos?

[@HereIsmarcus]

Thanks for uploading. I was wondering what the kit is like packed up. Could I take it on my bicycle for example ?

[@darkstar01010england]

such a good video much better than the roland own one!

[@ianhinrichsendrummer2113]

Edrums rock, but they should have more acoustic kits than all the sound effects.

[@deliveryable]

This drum is incrible.

[@tvoneiro1]

They listened to Walken's advice when they made this drum set.

[@drytaffin]

Yeah "Ace", exactly

[@tasfa10]

how...? i think you will surprise me cause ive got this drum kit for more than a year now and i havent found a way. so go ahead

[@rikzz0r]

Why do you need more drumsounds in order to advance? Isn't the kit itself, the pads en the snare and the toms and cymbals, the most important?

[@MrDpahls1]

Great sound. What sound system are you using? Also, most important, how affordable is this kit? What is the cost for the kit and sound system as you have it set up in this video? Thanks

[@rikzz0r]

alright, thank you!

[@kervak3]

what kind of drumsticks should i use with this kit? nylon tips?

[@intheblues]

actually sounds ok . good stuff

[@Subilon]

I think if u r going to spend this kind of cash go for the dtxplorer u can upgrade cymbals and snare pad on it but for a cheaper alternative the legacy kits are ok

[@Stepanik7]

@italianbananas Tomorrow i will order the yahama drxpress standard. I play drums for 2 years and i think they are the best value for your money

[@DisabledBee]

@tasfa10 That's a big disadvantage of this kit, next to the limit of kits, only 12(with variation) ;(

[@therailwizard1994]

i have an osp mkii, its ok but i really want one of these, i have almost enough money for one

[@Togagiga]

No, i dont mean the sounds i mean the kits ( to have the sound on the module on any trigger you want), but maybe you are right and you cant.....

[@HereIsmarcus]

Thanks. It's all moot now as Roland have stopped making them. I bought a yamaha DTX450k. It packs into a shopping trolley so I cam take it in the metro if I want to move it without a car.

[@RicZalewski]

what is the price? can it be connected to computer and use Ableton or similar to use other drum kits?

[@felipesalvadormoreir]

Alguém poderia me ajudar ? Estou com o seguinte problema : ao bater no hihat com o pedal do mesmo estando pressionado, o som ainda sai meio aberto, ao invés de totalmente fechado. Ratifico que tá tudo funcionando bem, pois separadamente, todo contato funciona ( batida no hihat aberto sai com o som normal, som do fechamento do hihat ao pressionar o pedal também ).

[@Gottacacheemalll]

It is the actuator

[@filsterva]

How you get so good sound? Because my sound is very bad. I tried tu put it at professional sound system and the sound is very bad. What is the problem? I hope that you understand me. Sorry because my english is little bad. I just need help, because i wiil play in bend, and the sound is verrryyy bad. :-(

[@Chavezoid]

The Latin sounds in the toms sound like timbales and bongo

[@ijosef]

@tasfa10 I agree. Perhaps Roland will come out with an updated module for this kit in the future. I could see all three toms available on the double bass kit (which is much more sensible than a cowbell) and a loosely closed hi-hat, similar to what you'd get if you hit a drop clutch and the top hat was just resting on the bottom hat. It would also be nice to have some basic editing ability so you could come up with custom kits. Sometimes you don't want the change in voice due to velocity.

[@dmgsoultogetherness6667]

literally would only use the mesh snare and the module as an add on to acoustic kit....

[@Togagiga]

im not sure but you cannot do it over the module....only over the computer

[@nobbyclark1346]

I want one of these. It's super compact, has the mesh snare. Can you do a reggae rimshot though?? Roland quality ...

[@graytss]

nobby clark this model has been discontinued for years... although you could find one used on reverb or e-bay.

[@freddyfox5002]

Is it worth 100$ today used?

[@Gottacacheemalll]

@@freddyfox5002 it’s still worth about 509 dollars

[@rikzz0r]

Haha yeah the cowbell is weird... But on the other hand, all electronic drum kits have pretty small pads and I thought the Mesh snare was really good?

[@bclaus0]

@imdrumzer rage against the machine

[@persiano33]

So...it just have 7 kits?

[@litoaz]

lol "beat his ass with a real cowbell" lmfao!

[@lasolucionfinal]

Hi John. Does this electronic drum kit let you record sounds on the computer, and then play that sound in the tom? ... e.g. Recording a dog's bark, then play that dog bark on the crash of the e. drum. Well, thanks you. XOXO Franck.

[@SuperUltra]

Atretyu uses a cowbell...?

[@rikzz0r]

Why not? For a beginner?

[@KevinVanRillaer]

@tasfa10 he didn't make the kit

[@DamianIsReved]

@GLCover SO true its an exelant kit:D@!

[@Symblotic]

Cowbell ruins the metal kit.

[@brengeldelacruz8866]

seY

[@BIGSABMUSIC]

i think ill spend about $300 more for the kit one step up from this ....i need atleast 20 kits on my set!

[@bore95]

Vinnie paul

[@mateivornicu]

im a guitarist but i would really love to play drums. i live in a flat and i cant have acoustic drums... i was thinking of buying the millenium mps 400 eventhough its shit.. this kit is lighter and A LOT BETTER sounding

[@OllySRDrums]

It is the entry level kit..?

[@Togagiga]

you can customize kits...u genius

[@crow468]

Needs more cowbell

[@the3broskies123]

how much do you think this would cost?

[@lastplacewin]

and this kit sounds awesome. dunno why you'd have LESS toms for a metal kit but luckily i don't like metal :)

[@225dantheman]

Cab you play this aloud without an amp?

[@cuvautoofficial]

That cowbell is fucked up. "Wow, Roland, what were you smoking when you decided to throw a cowbell in with the metal setting?"

[@tasfa10]

@Axeshredder damn.. i just told my brother to buy this one cause he wanted an e drum and he's pretty much into metal.. fuck

[@ThatPerthFan]

As an entry level kit, I would rather the DD501 for fuck sake because of the price. But Im gettin a DD505 instead hhaa.

[@oojjbbpp]

good kit but to exspensive! i would get the dd-501

[@iCerial]

Sweet kit for the cash :)

[@Chavezoid]

NEEDS MORE COWBELL

[@roborobert1]

when i go to guitar center i play the dog turds out of the electronic roland like this i love itI WANT IT SOOOO BAD!!!!

[@JCustomZ]

cowbell on metal kit.....

[@Migqell789]

A cowbell? fuck me

[@imdrumzer]

who has a cowbell on a metal kit?

[@fcweddington]

I would consider this kit if it was in the $300-$400 range. No way would I pay $1,000. This kits seems to me like the TD-4's little sister. Like the TD-4, you don't get many sounds (kits). Out of the ones you do get, many are just stupid, e.g., beat box sounds, world perc sounds, etc. Instead of buying this limited kit, go on eBay or Craigslist, go and purchase a used TD-6 V2 or TD-9, trigger up your acoustic kit, add some mesh heads, and enjoy a VAST amount of editing options and sounds.

[@Meteorotaki]

@imdrumzer Mike Portnoy

[@Jcbproducoes]

drumkit 4: only worth for rickrolling people! XD

[@soezere3177]

3rd one(latin) turned out to be a turkish ritm😂

[@dudekevin667]

[@DrxSlump]

@imdrumzer Blame Tommy Lee

[@MarkLangner34]

Hahaha dude unreal.
