Built around the TD-17 sound module, Roland's TD-17KV kit emulates the feel of acoustic drums with its all-mesh tom and snare pads and natural motion hi-hat.

Roland V-Drums are built to be reliable, from the sound module, to the pads, right down to the pedals; each component must deliver, across every scenario and in every performance. The pads and pedals used in the TD-17 series are engineered to take a beating, but their playability also endures. And as your skills and ambitions grow, you can expand your TD-17 by adding an extra crash cymbal or second snare safe in the knowledge that you're using the same durable components favored by pro drummers.

Electronic vs Acoustic. This is always pulled at my heart strings as a drummer. I ultimately went with a lower level electronic kit with the purpose being practice only and putting more money into my acoustic kit. The TD 17 has really changed the playing field.SETUP: Out of the box, everything went pretty smooth. I took down my old kit, trashed it, and put up the new kit in under 90 minutes. It was relatively easy. I had one cymbal holder that is not being used, but after reading the directions I started to understand this type of rack in used in the whole TD 17 series and it's supposed to be that way for this model. Packaging, well, everything was taped, wrapped in foam, and every cymbal and pad was boxed individually. Prepare for a lot of trash. I do appreciate the care in packaging and I feel confident that all a part were safe during traffic, but I wonder if there might be a less wasteful means of packing (which has nothing to do with the kit, I know). I like the plastic clips they provided to help control the wires. I did a little more preparation and bought a roll of velcro to add as well. The wires blend into the kit and not very noticeable. The kit itself is pretty amazing. The sound dynamics and being able to customize so many things is really amazing. I spent just as much time tuning my e kit as I did on my acoustic kit. The dynamics in volume with each stroke on the pads is comparable to acoustic and the most impressive is the choke on the cymbals, yes!! Finally! On read more my last kit, sometimes playing a faster song I would get an accented note when it should have been a ghost note. With the TD17, I'm not running into that at all. Trying to get the correct sounds out of cymbals seems to hardest for any company, but thank you Roland. Playing electronic cymbals have always been like dragging nails down a chalk board. I started to lose technique and started to focus on getting the correct sound on the bell, bow, and edge trying to hit the pad harder or softer. The cymbals do a much better job tracking each hit and actually choking. I do like the sounds loaded onto the module, but I also enjoy that it's not overloaded. Most users do not use all the sounds that it comes with, which is just taking up space. I have plenty of space to add my own sounds and kits. My last kit had 74 preloaded kits and space for me to add 7 of my own kits and I used 15 kits. I constantly had to erase kits and add new ones. I have the space to add 50 user kits. Nice touch.Connecting to Melodics was simple. It's still growing on me, but I do like it. I think Melodics will eventually become part of my weekly practice routine. I do see myself growing with this kit. Couldn't be happier. Thanks Roland!
