V Expressions Tutorial for Balance & Vault Kits (likely applies to other TD-50/TD-50X kits as well)

UPDATE - After you load the Vault + Balance Kits, you land on Kit #70, Noble. I scrolled back 10 kits and all said USER 69 to 60. At this point I had believed there were 30 kits total. This evening I happened to roll back past User Kit 58 and noted another V Expressions Kit. Then I scrolled back to Kit #1. In essence there are another 57 kits, thus a total of 87 kits.
There is no list of Kits in the Zip file.

First, view the README files in the V Expressions downloaded ZIP file.
Second, see also Alan Miller's Tutorial from V Expressions

Third, read below:
My tutorial does Not include Kit Sounds but will illustrate how to:
1)Load your Balance and Vault kits to a TD-50X Roland Module
2)What to expect
3)Action items to consider 'before' uploading the VExpression kits
4)The names of all 30 kits included with Balance and Vault
5)How to move Pads around from one V Drum to another
6)Backing up your modified Vault and Balance Kits.
Please note you will lose ALL custom settings, samples, default kits and any other kits in your Roland module. Make two full backups to 2 SD cards if you feel uncomfortable. I also backed up every single kit I had modified, created or added added as single kits. This makes matters easy to restore any kit you want at your discretion. Also, Kits 1 to 69 will be Emptied after you load the Balance and Vault kits. Their names will be User Kit 1 to User Kit 69.
My recommendation is after all 30 kits are installed backup each kit separately. Then you can re-load your original Roland Full Backup and then load the Vault and Balance Kits one by one.

Very useful, thanks

Thanks for the video! I just purchased the V Expression armory/arsenal kits. Have to say I’m kind of lost on this process of getting them into the TD50x. Do I save the download from V Exp to the SD card, back up my current kits on the TD 50x to that same card, load the new V Exp kits to the TD50x, and then reload the backup kits?

in your case, I would review Alan's video first. He covers this in detail. Mine would follow after his thus you may be one step ahead. kzbin.info/www/bejne/epvNmGpua710sJo There's much more explained below my video step by step which includes Alan's video.
