I bought a TD-6KV there are 4 or 5 months. Trs satisfied with the product, despite a lot of unnecessary kits, rubber pads and a few thugs. Wanting to get me the new pads Snare Charleston and the TD-6KW, I'm finally back with a TD12 complte (thank you packs!)

Well Premire my impression: "... would I finally bought a drumkit .....". Tests with a good headset, the quality is really impressive! Everything is, everything is raliste (bell of cymbal, bass drum which reason the tone of the snare drum, toms Rimshot on, etc etc) ... Slap!

Deuxime slap: the pleasure of playing: The toms are small is sr, but the feel of each pad, the size of the snare, the real charley ... everything is for the feeling of playing real drums (unlike the TD6 o shake you have to play lol). O On my impression: "Finally a drumkit".

More dtail: The drumkit is relatively easy ride, no need for manual, everything is intuitive.
- The pads of the toms are not very great, but the skin mesh size catches up: playing comfort, silence strikes, rim shots ISSA ... it is far from the trs rubber pads that are neighbors crisis.
- Ct snare drum, the two sensors on the skin to rajoutent ism of sound and playability of Surprise also be able to play in ballet!
- Ct bass drum, nothing wrong. Skin mesh also rebounds pleasant, quiet pad. I use a simple pedals TAMA with hits that came with the pad (plastic). The pad does not move a muscle even in the strong typing.
- Ct cymbals: Nothing wrong either. Unless the bell of the ride remains a bit difficult to reach full game, but with a little practice, I think it will not be a problem. on the other hand I think it's actually INTERESTED to get a ride higher and pass the current deuxime Crash, which is not a luxury (well yes, but you have me included) .
- Ct charley: Systm ingnieux, which allows to use a real hi-hat stand acoustic playing comfort, there is finally the same sensations as an acoustic. Everything is Settings, the closing of the hi-hat, the degree of openness ... a real rgal. Small BMOL: I stand charley is a first prize, so that the rod rotates ... consquent also by the pad ... and since the sensor is only on the Rimshot half the girth ... short, NCESS to block everything to me.

Ct module, everything is easy to ACCS: kits, patterns, mood, instrument. A wheel for easy navigation. The LCD screen is good, everything is displayed clearly, with numerous illustrations. A Premire view, a good module trs. This is confirmed when one focuses on all rglages available ... and was smiling all along: the type of hardware used fux depth, skin tightening, addition of tape or cover for the bass drum, or chains of rivets for the ride, possibility get the stick on the snare drum for each kit, possibility to rsons pads according to other pads hit ... a multitude of possibilities, not to mention being able to modify each sound in depth.

50 kits on offer. 40 I would say excellent, and the end 10 of which offer good sound but difficult to use. Some kits offer loop patterns, just to have some fun. A pleasure for some (Reggae, or RockBand ...!). Too bad for lctros kits that are pretty bad (unlike the sounds on offer by the TD6). In addition, patterns techno ... I do not know o musicians Roland cost a techno ... but I was, I had never heard in my life ... and fortunately ... we're not going in the same botes short, the electro than techno. Trs important not say to me, but sometimes it's nice to start a low line and hit to hit ... !

Ct songs, all in curls (practice), not bad that I do not like (they get drunk funk ...!). Some are really pleasant. Less original than the TD6 (Country, Dance, exotic ambience ...), it's a shame. But is really positive.

Ct atmosphere, many rglages possible: in addition to conventional rverbs (cellar, studio, gym, toilets ...;)), we can change the constitution of the room (bu ..) size, and position of microphones. I personally have not really tried but promises good rglages for the pros (I'm not!).

That's basically for all a. Ct sound, my amp PM-10 is the pick compltement dsormais (j'exagre a little). The headphone is really the top. For group play, another amp I will ncessaire I think.

In esprant you have some clear lments;)
