Roland TD-12KX V-Drums

Targeted to the demands of drummers that perform live and in the studio, the TD-12KX builds on the feature set of the popular TD-12SV kit, adding a larger kick, floor tom pad, and a new stand with improved pad mounts. The editing features of the TD-12 module have also been enhanced for even more flexible sound creation, the company says.

The TD-12KX features Roland’s multi-layer mesh heads for the kick, snare and tom pads. To enhance playability, the TD-12KX includes a larger 12" KD-120 V-Kick™ Trigger Pad for the bass drum and a 10" PD-105 floor tom pad for the floor tom. The TD-12KX also comes equipped with a VH-11 V-Hi-Hat and three 12" CY-12R/C V-Cymbals.

The brain of this newest V-Drums kit—the TD-12 Percussion Sound Module—features the same COSM sound engine as the TD-20, and provides direct outputs. Editing sounds can be performed on the TD-12 thanks to V-Edit, which allows drummers to adjust parameters, such as shell material, head type and cymbal size with a simple icon-based graphic interface. With the TD-12KX kit, the V-Edit functions have been enhanced to include microphone placement, bass drum beater selection, adding a hi-hat tambourine, and more, Roland says.

The TD-12 also offers functions for drum practice, including onboard music patterns, a sequencer, a programmable click, and a mix input jack for connecting MP3 or CD players.
