«  But must always CHRE »

FYI, prior to the TD20 (with TDW20), I had a TD12 and a custom acoustic Yamaha Beech. As with the TD12, I find this is being done even better at the sound module, but with some amlirorations (+ shipping sounds complte with the TD20 and even with the TDW20 +). Add a few kits Vexpressions tration and I end up with the top of the moment. + Obviously, it's not because it's the top of electro that's perfect, but the TD20 is doing well, sounds are good for most and should not be the hsiter program is to get the same kit you want (obviously, no one has the same gots me Vexpression and Roland, but in doing my rglages, I got !). The pads are a joy for me at the contact, and I wonder even if I prfre not an acoustic (Obviously matter of taste). Cymbals and hihat are VH12 nikel. I bought one of dernires TD-20 K as it is currently in version KX TD-20 (which provides an atmosphere Aesthetics based on chromium, and a big GC +, and the addition of the map of TDW20 SERIES). Personally, the new design puzzled me (the black + TD20K is happening everywhere) and saw that the stores had in stock were the old prices, I profit. + And - as I said in "+", the sounds are good, but by I mean to be well exploit (mix and record) because it is not in the imitation of drumkit poses a real ground, but in the imitation of a real drumkit Sound: All sounds are original work trs (EQ, noise gate, compression recording for CC Tom and GC). You never find the original sound of a drumkit, even in turning all the effects added in the kits. You play as a CD or a sound system in concert, without even hearing the original sound. You can love, and we may not like. Personally, I do drang has not, and saves me so much time for concerts (no need to lug the real drums, no mic cables around with that a ton psent ....) . And above all, I have no choice because I make music electro now, the acoustic can not give me what I expect. - Still no possibility to import samples (even on the very latest TD20KX out this year). I will be forced to buy an SPD-S pad and more ... No sounds non traits: They could have put some of the same whole. The hotspot in the center of the mesh pad (There's more DJ dbats the above on AF) Just in passing: I read in the opinion that previous ones lacked Obviously the sensation of vibration shots (GC, CC and tom well ahead sr) but in our normal configuration, the subwoofers are just behind the drumkit with vibration, there are (in the buttocks notament <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="mrgreen" /> !) I put 9 because you can not import samples and for what is now the top has a gap Whereas seems to me.

EDIT June 23 2010:
Used in concert, we had good feedback from the public trs (which ignores Yamaha Beech Custom accustomed our previously non-sound available). Several people have told us of their own that the silent drum sound better than before, but realized that s'tre c'tait an electronic, yet we play a lot of Pink Floyd is a music that it should not be too prter.
For musicians of the group, however, there is always a certain lack of "direct sound or vibration" but is not dramatic. And what matters most to me is the feeling of the public.

EDIT 23/03/2011:
I can m'empcher to note that the "Christian75" who murders the TD20 is irrelevant because it speaks drumkit trigger, and he has a grudge against Roland probably seen that only two posts that He never let on AF are copies went to the TD20K and TD20KX. Moreover, unlike what he said, I saw many TD20 dj studio, but it is true that with the VST, they tend disparatre. Without VST, the TD20 (+ TDW20) remains the best for me, especially before the 2box that, even with some sounds Toms suprieurs remains slightly below the level sounds, and especially well in infrieur jouabilit (see charlet) rponse nuances, and strong. + Of the TD20 includes effects which allows the music to adapt quickly while 2box level is naked except for a delay effect.
Otherwise, a hand, always happy with my TD20, even if I put up for sale (finished my group back in the electro and rock, then back to basics since I am fortunate not to have a neighborhood problem).
