All user reviews for the Roland TD-6KV

I use it for over 7 years!
Not to be bothered by the noise can do an acoustic drum, my parents chose to give me this for my Roland TD6KV debut drumkit.

I am generally very satisfied, especially for the price (1500 € new).

However, some points could be better (which I found on other reviews):
• Charley (the sensitivity of the foot pad and unsatisfactory)
• Stickers cables are going fast
• The sound of the kick drum

It is very complete and customizable.
There are many options (setting the velocity recording, through the design of its own kits ...)
I would do this choice with experience, or I would turn to a higher model like TD15KV

Roland is touting this as a beginner's set and on that level it completely succeeds. I've been drumming for 20 plus years and I wish I had started on something like this.
Even the tom pads feel just fine and have very good sensitivity.
The lack of individual outs is going to stop some players from using this in a live situation, but if you have a decent system and have set your levels correctly it works in that capacity as well.
I found the hardest thing to get used to is the hi-hat pedal. The actual pedal is fine, but the open/closed sensitivity could be a wee bit better.
Overall for the money I am completely satisfied. Very cool and a lot of fun. If you're a beginner, this is the way to go. You won't drive anyone else nuts with your constant restarts during practice. You can play along with your favorite band by plugging in your iPhone/iPad or whatever you have. There are downloadable music sans drums on Rolands site, along with lessons you can purchase.

Great beginning set. Very light and easy to assemble. The pads have a fantastic feel. The set is very easy to set up. It's very easy to get all the pads just how you want them. The sounds are pretty basic and it took me a little while of playing with them to warm up to them. For the price range, you cannot find anything better. Great high quality sounds, very compact with all your toms snare and kicks and crashes/hats. It gives you that real drum set feel. But when you live some where that you can just rock out with real drums this is exactly what you need to go for. You wont disturb anyone with this, its very quiet and professional. Price is kind of high though but its worth it.

Installation:
2 large cardboard boxes reus, one containing the rack and the other containing the module's TD6V, all pads and controller charley.
The rack installs very easy, just Leaflets everything. A Premire view, does not look a solid mount, but once you realize that it is stable and trs trs plays out its rle. For my part, occupies the ground has little 1m20 on 1m20 prs (counting the stool is a little rear) but dpend the fawn whose rack is possible if you have big arms you have the tendency Leaflets much (I have small hands).

Pads:
The touch pad is a little rubber dconcertant to beginners. But I guarantee you that I got trs accustomed to. The sensitivity is trs good, really no problem. Spcial point for snare pad (PD80R), trs good. Small black dot, the sensor to the edge of the cymbals is not trs sensible, at least not as I want. While the DME is normment (I love).
The bass drum pad is also trs good (sensitivity level. We do not at all the touch of a bass drum acoustic but you get done (beware of the downstairs neighbor if you have one). With a double pedals, no problem (ah, if the downstairs neighbor, him again).
The sensitivity is paramtrable and the treshold (to avoid the dclenchement parasites) and the note trigg (useful for assignments of notes on your software prfr)
Each pad possde Stereo output then double trigg but left for the cymbals and snare, I have not found that has worked well for others (rubber tom pads).

The sound module:
Fairly complete, each sample can be paramtr (Pan, delay, pitch, volume ...). For me 50% sounds useless to me (sound effects, cartoon sound etc ...). So, I got two kits, one to please me and one for recording. It's good trs, trs sound is convincing.
A mix between (IN) can play at the same time as your prfr tube. Two mono output jacks 6.5 (left and right or left / mono) can leave the sound to what you want. A weird thing is that the sound from the mix (IN) is a transplanted trs low volume (but even when audible) on the output. What is strange is that they could have the choice of any mix and therefore leave the mix and then normally only get the sound but the drumkit malfunction has done more than anything else.
Submitted MIDI ports (I / O), I used the output jack for now, has worked well, it's no surprise.
There are a lot of music (midi) pre-recorded, we just have fun "mutate" the drum part and train it has amused me a few days time to make the turn and then c'tait all, so I think rather gadget.
The snare sound is synthetic trs I find, on bearings it seems that a machine gun, not a lot of nuances, as I found odd given that for the toms, the sound is rather stunning to ism. It's a shame because it is the pad that offers the best touch of the kit.
D'APRS roland site (including the video of the dmonstration TD6), the sound module is compatible with V-Cymbal pads or genre from the tdk8 tdk20 and I do not know I have not tried but seems to be me again in a serious advantage if you think long term.

Conclusion:
I am glad trs I dfonce it and I take my foot!
The sound is good and the pads are gnral trs satisfactory.
The module is scalable and I intend to change the cymbals.

A notice over the following link:

Here I just bought this drumkit. I used a yamaha possdait DTXPRESS that I quickly sold to buy the Roland.
I prfr Roland because the sound modules are much more work than can be found on a yamaha. In addition, the Roland seems much stronger. The fasteners are oversized pads and their weight has nothing to do with that small patties Previous my drumkit.

As against the ACCS at menus is somewhat cumbersome. If you do not know the command to accder such a function is not going to invent it. As the finish is excellent on the drumkit, on the contrary, the module was to handle the Inpress an old plastic casing.

I think the sounds are of good quality plutt. The snare drum are made provided they like them pchus (which is my case). Toms are plutt means. The cymbals are correct, with one dimension specially for my wrinkles that much. The openings are bluffing to charley ism.
However the majority of kits are pre-program plutt adget (style bionic laser, howling cat, draping and ,...), car will rev faster start to compose own kits.

In the end I do not regret my purchase. Too bad that Roland is not much rglages and functions that my old drumkit but hey it makes up quickly on the trs fun.

I use the TD6 KV for 1 month now and I still sduit as much as this kit is really an excellent qualitprix. In contrast, the rubber pads are a minimum noise (especially 2:00 in the morning) and registration of personal kits could be being protected by a validation (type Enter) while the only just to Exit it valid for the last change.
Otherwise, the sound is stunning especially on a good sound system. The snares are good trs liberalization and the touch is perfect thanks the skin mesh.
Scne on, I use my kit Zildjian cymbals because I could not find a hit-hat and crash at his trsraliste. on the other hand, wrinkles and splash are both couraging the snare.
For the same budget, it is sr I remake the same choice, with a budget just over lev I thrive on the new or TD8 TD12 pads are for all skin mesh (even the bass drum) that the amliore Reduces noise and touch pads.

Hello friend zicos, I'm not a drummer, I do not possde electronic drumkit, but the drummer of my band was offered by Roland TD6-KV there is little one month and he did more than happy .

When I play, even the drumkit and I can assure you that even in the game, super c raliste, the fund bounced back a little more than acoustic, but the skin really maillec g nial.

In terms of sound, c Roland, need I say more, c nikel ... What is are the two areas on each pad and then being able to re-create their own kits ... c as a synthesis of all fawn.

I give you his e-mail, contact him, he will tell you more j'espre: becorbrejaud@ch-macon.fr

For my part I put 9 / 10 because he is no perfection and there forcment best level in the range but quality report / price, do not worry, ca well worth the price: not hsite !

I now have the TD6-KV for two months (September) and I'm really happy!
First, studying and being apart, I wanted above all a way to play the drums, but without disturbing the neighbors. It turns out that the TD6 is really affordable, and meets still to minimum requirements! I will mention to the snare mesh: it's really what motivated my purchase!
Aquérir before I could try it one time in the store (it's still the advantage of the shops over the internet!) And I went through many forums. But apart from TD3, I could not try other models. the demo site I enjoyed a lot too: https://www.rolandce.com/productinfo/productinfodetail-F.asp?Welke=426
The value is there! The Roland is solid (not like I'm playing a beef, but I do not measure my shots) and sound are truly stunning (especially the hi-hat, and snare drums).
The only downside is the bass drum that my downstairs neighbor gene, and the rubber pads are a bit noisy (tom), hence the use of a headphone insulation to prevent sound charley 'poc' quest ".
Plus I play more I'm having this drumkit! The customization is complete, it can also evolve (addition of a pad or cymbal) easily.

Jai bought this drumkit 4 months ago and jen am quite satisfied until Careers News that jen is given. I bought as lai dentranement drumkit in the apartment, jai acoustic drums for RPET with my band (funk rock). I play for about 10 years but Manir discontinuous (PERIOD without practicing).

Its level:
Jai trs t surprised by the enjoyable ism cymbals Manir gnrale dune. Even if there are some who argue ride continuously.
There is a large variance in the trs snare drum sounds (100 + DIFFERENT) which is where trs INTERESTED lon wants to adapt the sound a bit.
The bass drums are correct.
The weak point at this level seems to be the toms: hard to find ralistes sounds, the sound is often either too round or too flat.

I did not INTERESTED sounds too electronic or DCAL (cartoons), the sounds of percussions are correct but not enough (2kits: congas and bongos). 1 / 3 of the sounds are useless if we are to approach the sound of an acoustic drum (there is loss).

The kit is rglage dun trs ais and rglage overall TD6 module is fairly intuitive. I havent even pushed away laffinage trs sound: delay, pitch, quil stereoma it seems there is a lot of possibilities.

Jenvisage pad to position a cot in my acoustic drum sounds to distribute SPECIFICATIONS dune Manir sporadic (perceived explosion). To have sound SPECIFICATIONS I must take, in real time, sounds dune source computer (micro-computer, synth). Indeed, I know There is no possibility to store the midi sounds in the module, Cest damage!

Jouabilit Level:
The size of the toms + snare (8 inches) I do not drang mapprend it has be more prcis. There is an excellent bounce trs bass drum and an excellent rebound Snare (skin mesh), even a little too much bounce
The feeling on the toms is less flexible but this not possible for my particular problem. Jen took the opportunity to work more than the movement of the wrist plutt than using the bounce of the skin. I do not see lintrtdavoir skin mesh on the toms even if it remains prcieux snare.

The hi-hat works a bit mode on / off (open / closed), the game requires a little time CC adaptation. Its a weak point which ignores foreseeable, it is difficult davoir the same feeling playing a real quavec charley (can be the feet of charley TD12 electronic genre but I did not essay.

The sensitivity (taking into account the power of the strike) is good but not great (adpend sounds), he parat what is adjustable, I'm still not al my .

Place two strike zones on each pad is an ide INTERESTED in the game but it is often difficult to strike the edge of the pad to release the deuxime sound. A amlioration this level is possible.

Jai had loccasion of rpter sometimes in groups with my electronic drums. APRS a while CC adaptation (the back of his rglage becomes important), we all have to work really apprci a reasonable noise level (small room). The drummer can more sattacher the precision of his playing that trump plutt lnergie. AIM Jaures keep it RPET and alternate with acoustic drums (not to lose the feeling of the game). For now my drumkit electronic stay at home to work (still a long wrap, dballe). There should be two men! lol

Robustness level
Lensemble is quite reassuring. The pads are strong trs, the stand also, the clips are plastic but I havent had a problem especially for Linster. The module is of good quality. Cest good cam Roland.

Sound level:
In seeking the best quality price, I stopped on a keyboard amp Roland KC 60 (30 Watts): about 300 / 350.
Previously, a return javais essay scne Montarbo amplifier, the HP procured a small sound too shrill.
In hindsight, I would take the suprieur MODEL: KC 150 (60 Watts) to increase the functionality of my amp: scne sono return (small scene + RPET) for acoustic drums. However for home use on 30 watts is more than enough.

Overall satisfaction, I would choose the same lheure daujourdhui. Daut lai more than I bought in 1250 a small music store (she was 15 days) with 1 year warranty. Bargains are sometimes in our local distributors.

I bought the TD-6V complte.
Trs good price for the quality!
BMOL however small:

- The edges of pads are difficult trs chop (include the sensor is weird). A shot of two, the sound that comes out is the "center". Not always fun in the midst of music, especially when the sound has nothing to do.

- (EDIT): I add some sensors that start too got my DCON. The sensor activates the Charleston without my key though will be ... (A start ...), and the sensor that activates the tombass when I play on the ride ...

- Too few crashes. Moreover, the variations are quite limited. Knock ... knock or not. But it is difficult to get good grades.

- EDIT: j'enlve bp on the module! I still say a wheel does have more practical, but thank you Sp | not clear to me the two little tricks of the + and - buttons (see review above). Whew!

- Other decision-head also for having fun with Songs (generally friendly, but super rptitives sr MIDI background and well ... not to abuse for fear of dgot be music): the Song Genre n4. Just as I plant kit and I hit a pad dclenchant a Sample, and the song stops to go to the net n110 Sample

- The number of low-rev kit customizable: one ... In fact, each kit can be customized, but then you lose the original kit (possibility of return paramtres plants, but good). Only the kit 99 "User Kit" available to us. It's not any standard a. .. I am trying to connect the drumkit the computer with the software DFH. History to have even more possibilities.

- The closing of the hi-hat pedals (just by pressing it). You really have support for sound (I recommend the kit rgler rgler and the volume of the sound ...!). It lacks the sound of the dme charley. Nanmoins, play on this pad is really enjoyable.

- Tip of Yamaha n'tait not too much: the cables are placed in the tubes of the rack. On the TD-6V, there is no longer that little. That's all stupid, but it sacrment practice (I have all gain!)

Apart from a I m'clate well. I am connected to the PM-10 (perfect for an apartment). Many kits are throwing the trash (set of sound effects, miawou, vroom vroom and company ...), but it's for all modules. And in the end, even when it is quickly met by all others. What is a Rock, mtal, Techno or Jazz, there really is something to find happiness: the boxes are really clear trsralistes (with beginners on acoustic drums), the bass drums though pr paths, the touches are trs well ...
