Roland TD-17 Series V-Drums Anika Nilles Performance | TD-17KVX2 and TD-17KV2

Watch and hear the TD-17KVX2 in action as Anika Nilles performs her track “Synergy.” The refreshed TD-17 V-Drums series provides an unbeatable combination of great quality, superior sound, and practical kit configurations. Both kits within the series use the TD-17 sound module, responsive mesh-head pads, and newly developed thin-profile cymbals deliver a high-end experience that’s stunningly close to playing acoustic drums.

Anika just sold 1000 kits with this performance. Incredibly impressive.

[@raunaqnanda4679]

hahahaha. I couldn't have said it better.

[@cargo4067]

She did for me actually

[@indorr]

nah,not to me.never heard of her,and bought it.regreted when realised how limited I was bacause of rack shape,and silly cymbal mounting(straight booms with balls ,thats it,no arms)if you planning to use double bass pedal it and knowing your right foot will be in the middle(rack gap for kick pad)it places your hihat pedal in akward place(next to your left foot kick pedal)way too left.That forced me to do hardware upgrades and get proper cymbal stands with arms and everything so I could place my 3 toms in line above and use this shitty snare(Pdx-12) as 4th (floor) tom and get pd125bk for a snare(way better) "Yeah,but why didn't you invest in better vdrums then on the 1st place?"Well,I owned better and more expensive in the past and I've learned that with some will and knowledge you can make cheap(er) kits sound way better than they suppose to.That happened with this kit,It's a beast nowadays and yes,I spent a bit to make it that way.If you're happy with what td17kvx is in its original form,good for you.I knew what I was buying yet I wasn't comfortable with

[@wavecs1179]

Triggers better than the TD27 for sure

[@DMDvideo10]

My band played 3 years with a kit like this. Then we went to the TDK-30 for 8 years. I had full control over the volume of the band and we could adapt to any venue and maintain a great sound without having to be loud. Also the recording aspect of these drums is amazing. As much as I love acoustic drums especially with a drummer who knows how to take care of their drums, I definitely see the advantages electronic drums can give you. Just think about the 11 years of ear fatigue I've saved!

[@danielmoraes7913]

Her style is unique!! Great drummer!!!

[@Qwerty12771]

She is amazing. And really doing the kit justice. This update sounds great!

[@wakabi2191]

Update? Is this drum model a new release?

[@PEP.]

@@wakabi2191 new compression settings and 2.0 software update

[@swerevermusic]

I'm impressed with Anika's performance and style ❤️..... let's not forget the other artists involve in this track...esp The Guitar ,Keys and Bass OMG❤️❤️❤️

[@SK-ll3uv]

How do you even remember how to play these kind of shifting patterns throughout an arrangement like this!! Hats off to the musicians, skills, memory, creativity, understanding and counts. If there is a structure to learn this method of madness, I’ll be glad to know :)

[@phxrisingmedia]

She made it lol

[@mcrafford]

One bar or phrase at a time.

[@fernandosutti7646]

Es fácil estudiando.......

[@NeCtRiCkS]

Rudiments -> apply (distribute) those rudiments at slow/moderate tempos in many variations (right hand on ride, left hand on snare to quote ONE) -> practice improvisation by just applying those variations -> play the solo. Do that in many metrics (4/4, 3/4, 5/8...) and tempos. Now play ostinatos and metrics overlayed (Kiko Freitas has an amazing course in that matter).

[@bassage13]

Practice, practice, practice, practice, and more practice. That's the answer to everything.

[@tdz69]

Came for the drums….stayed and BLOWN AWAY by this girl. Absolutely awesome.

[@jscottarmas6128]

What beautiful & uplifting playing! Those doubles on the kick are ridiculous!

[@andrewjones2898]

I would of liked to of seen more of that double kick , however the camera always missed it . sounded like a double bass drum pedal to me. But ive only been playing for 45 years , what do i know . very good set piece.

[@jscottarmas6128]

Yup, I thought the same thing until I watched a couple of her kick drum technique videos. Single pedal. Amazing. I tell ya... kids these days!

[@ridney5586]

Roland just showed us how to properly play our TD-17s haha

[@Naturalfittness4ev]

I love the chops!!!!! My favorite part of any song. And yours are SMOOTHHHHHHH.

[@noodlezeep5159]

The energy of this performance is insane o.O

[@dennisagresti9367]

GREAT playing by Anika! Well done, Roland! I'm a TD-50X user, but this kit sounds AMAZING!

[@FurtiveSkeptical]

Nothing more joyful than watching a learned musician ply their craft see them interact with the instrument.👏

[@darrellroseborough7275]

OMG!!!! Just simply one of the best. So gifted and talented. I stumbled upon this Roland edrum marketing ad featuring Anika Nilles performing and boy what a treat. Now we’re talking about edrums and she’s making them sound acoustic. I wonder how many people would be able to tell blindfolded? I’m not talking about you 50 year industry audiophiles. Then again probably some of you wouldn’t know either. Nonetheless she’s a bad girl making the music sound good no matter what she’s playing. Happy Women’s month Anika.

[@sweetpeters]

Never heard of Anika Nilles before. Wow! What a drummer!!!

[@jayv9779]

I love my TD-17kvx. This sounds great.

[@TAShannon1]

Oh my.... amazing job. Best e drum demo I've ever seen

[@randybyers9492]

My gosh.........astounding. Effortless and so intricate. Clearly one of the best drummers on the planet!!!!!!!!!! Great sound too thanks to Roland!

[@feedbackbro]

Wow. Outstanding!! So happy I decided to check out this video. What a performance!! Great stuff

My daughter is calles Anika thanks to this talented woman 💪🏻💪🏻☺️

[@GabrielRohail]

That's so tasteful! Too enjoyable to watch and rejoice! Congratulations!

[@DrQuizzler]

Incredible playing, and she really showed off the kit's nuance and range!! Makes me want to get a set and start practicing.

[@MeanMaoriMean555]

First time I’ve heard this artist! Geez just inspiring! Great playing Anika ❤ These kits have come a long way for dynamics now. I might be interested .

[@TreenighetMaranata]

Wonderful and so good! That smile in the end made me smile aswell!

[@MrFn65]

Wonderful playing, song and sound!

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

There's nothing unique at all about her playing. It literally consists of funk grooves and qauds

[@rwachti]

@@dcmastermindfirst9418 she composed this song. And she is called "Queen of quintuplets"

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

@rwachti Yeah I can make up bullshit names for myself too.

[@RoccoSoundTube]

Amazing performance!!!

[@LuiWallentinGttler]

Always a pleasure to hear and see Anika beat the ever living shit out any given kit of drums. Just love the fluidity of her style of playing. So good on Roland to get her to showcase one of their midtier kits.

[@lrblouie]

An awesomely talented drummer!!!

[@jasonatkins2603]

Awesome 👌

[@skylargoolsby9319]

Nice. Killed it🎉

[@patrickricord2120]

Great drummer in world fantastic great feeling of her instrument bravoooo👍👍👍💛💛💛

[@banana1000]

めっちゃかっこいいです！！

[@runningbear1961]

Very nice, well done.

[@mattocaster1065]

the footage is cut i think. The roland cymbal on the hihat rotates back at 2:00....

[@mattocaster1065]

might just rotating a lot. mine does that theres no trigger on the other side.

[@Peip692]

Definitely. At 0:24 she hits the same cymbal twice, once getting the regular splash and then right after a crash sound...

[@drummersamuel]

WOW Fantastic 👍🏻👍🏻

[@JoseLuiz-nm8jv]

Simplesmente, impressionante.

[@markeemark85]

OMG Anika Nilles the Quintuplet Queen one of the GOAT Female drummer

[@jerrymasters2691]

She's GOAT. I'm man enough to say it! Are you?!?!

[@terrancehiscock4085]

Just bought a TD-17KV2 and was looking to learn about it. Your playing is great. Your smile made my day:)

[@laptoples]

That was wicked rad !!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@seljoypro]

Love this performance. I do wish the TD17 had more natural sounding snares and toms. They still sound processed. The kit overall feels really fun to play. I usually end up midi-ing this a software library for more better drum samples.

[@vitalyleskiv3699]

agree! kit of that level could have sound better for the price..

[@lowaimnobrain]

@@vitalyleskiv3699 i personally wish edrum makers would just stop wasting money on modules altogether. Just give me the midi data, let ez/sd3 do the sound.

@@johngrobson4899 Drummers are drummers. It's ridiculous to say 'female drummer'. She's definitely skilled.

[@tecnoline57]

Anika! you are very good!!!! Have you ever thought of collaborating with these guitarists: Matteo Mancuso or Lay Basilio???? You would really do something amazing!!!!! Congratulations again!!!! Roberto

[@clydebermingham121]

A good drummer is such a backbone to a band (for this kind of music & various others …) It’s nice to see and notice the drums & drummer ‘ upfront & personal ‘ 🙏🏽 How an arrangement so comes to life with a drummer behind driving it

[@TFLSTUDIO88]

MMYYYY GGAAAAWWDDD!!!!!! I just wanted to hear the kit... i didn't know i would HEAR THE KIT!!!! Every beat. Every nuance. Ever high hat and snare ghost note. MMMMYYYY GGAAAAAAAAWWWWDDDD!!!!!!! The response on those toms and kick!! The dynamics on the cymbals! SHE PLAYED THE CRAAPPPP out of this kit!!! 0

[@jub8891]

great drumming!

[@ddevillers]

Wow, what a stellar performance! Anika is an *amazing* drummer. Drums sound fantastic. I wish I knew which kit she is using here. I'm curious if it's one of her 3 Artist Series kits that I just installed or another kit. Oh, great mix ... that's how I would mix a track if she was on drums 🙂

[@itamarhugnot]

I love her

[@tecnoline57]

Very good as always!!!! On this occasion what kind of sounds did you use? Thanks!

[@moniquetardy3335]

Vraiment très douée !!! En plus très belle 👍❤️😀🙏

[@woodpeckersmusic]

What happened to the hi-hat hits at 01:07? :D

[@michaelquaglia4156]

I could tell right away this way massively edited. I mean come on , most of us watching are drummers. plus the high hat stand is moving all over the place. Not a very impressive video at all.

[@brianmchale7841]

My hero

[@NympoGaming]

Amazing drummer. With cymbals that high up there's no way I could pull off the same drags she did, no chance...

[@HenriqueChalegreCantorEMusico]

Very good!

[@j.mapendan9722]

Wow this sounds awesome! Would be possible to share her settings? What type of snare, Tom’s, etc she used or pick on this kit?

[@Rockin_Ross]

It just seems like something is missing when I see people behind electronic kits. Especially when I’ve always known them in big acoustics. She crushed it as expected.

[@kevinvanrensburg2468]

Boy, she can play, great stuff!

[@Toinks97057226]

Man… always loved watching her play. Td-17 didn’t give her justice though… it was clear that she was struggling at the ride. Still enjoyed it! Thanks Roland and Anika!❤

[@rebecaperalta5863]

Good Video Roland

[@shoeksma]

Sounds amazing! Could you please tell us if this specific kit sound is available in v2, either as a stock kit in update v2, or downloadable from Roland Cloud. This seems a very relevant question.

[@joepanther9120]

This is a very relevant question - I can only think of a few answers as to why Roland has not responded - none of them good.

[@sorayajimeno]

She’s really good 👍

[@brunozanonlamusicanelcuore6088]

SUPER !!!!!!!

[@DrummerDanVa]

I am curious if she is using one of the included kits on the module without additional processing during the recording. This is as good an e-kit I have heard at ANY price. Of course the drummer has something to do with that.
