All user reviews for the Roland TD-6KX

I work in a Baguetterie, and until my TD6-KX I used a TD6-KW for a few months. J'égratignerai in passing the very poor inventory management ROLAND Europe (this topic deserves a folder full when we know the problems faced by retailers with importers ...), but I finally got the last one.

FYI, the KX-TD6 TD6-KW is only equipped with new pads for snare, toms and ride. The rest does not change.

The response of the PD-105 snare drum is better because if the new pad is bigger than the team who TD3 and TD6-KW, the strapping is thinner and the skin of a slightly larger diameter, increasing sensitivity.

The ride cymbal is also greater, and its form would suggest that it is easier to trigger the sound of the bell. It's really not obvious.

The new pads toms are fitted with mesh skin, and the comfort of the game is to go and better sensitivity. But inexplicably, Roland did not bother to revise the operating system of the TD6 module (common to the two models) and the sensor's banding is not recognized, unlike the rubber pad fitted to the TD6-KW!

I could use in my studio with a TD3 snare mesh skin for 3 months, frankly, that's happiness. (If your budget is limited you TD3 satisfied, you will not due)
But if you have the possibility with the TD6 you will still be a notch above it: the object of beauty, ergonomics and thanks to toms ism skin mesh, and finally the quality factory sounds TD6 module, and ct pdagogique with backing tracks in all styles.
In the beginners I found almost incidental to have pre recorded MIDI songs, but ultimately it is fifteen times better than mtronome the chansonettes are so DIFFERENT CHARACTERISTICS of genres they inspire to new things, to lcher, the sound of batteries mixing well with the music.
Some sounds of snare drums are absolutely fabulous, like kits for stocky, birch, plexiglass, rototoms, timpani, we fully recognize the sound, excellent quality overall.
If you want to splurge, try the ngocier time in 10 free (170 Euros per month'm a little prs).
Latter is not empty Bryant, let alone all the toms mesh, you just need a rug to a gym below the bass drum, parliaments as bryant.
I go back!

I use this little gem for about a month. I'm really not disappointed!

The mesh skin on the toms and snare really absorb shocks on the sensors and provide a better bounce. It is a pleasure to play with. Moreover, these skins are much less noise than the toms rubber type models KW.

At first I was skeptical about the reliability of the hi-hat, but frankly it goes not too bad, although we must press firmly on the pedal.

The movements of the cymbals are adjustable as on the real, only downside, there is one side of the crash cymbal and hi-hat which are made of plastic (to separate two sounds on the module, such as front and rear crash Chinese). It's a bit of mess then.

Otherwise the bass drum pad works well. Too bad it does not benefit either of the skin mesh as TD-12. Because it is against the wall of my parents' room, so imagine the vibrations. I suggest you put at least one piece of wood or carpet beneath gym, just to dampen the vibrations a bit

Finally, the module includes a few hundred different kits with over 1000 different sounds! There's enough to make it on! Second, the quality of the effects is not too bad, y'en forces that ... what gadget
But this module is very comprehensive in that it can completely change the kits!
That is, you can increase or decrease the sound of a tom on a kit, increase / decrease the resonance, harmonics, for example, or change altogether the sounds of each part of the drumkit kit. So there are endless possibilities!

So what is effective in terms of learning the drumkit is the fact that you can plug your MP3 player in the module (with a catch jackmâle3, 5mm/jackmâle3, 5mm). Like this, there's more than playing over the music. I find this method really works. In addition the module has several "learning songs" and a drum machine built!

I paid € 1679 with a kick pedal GIBRALTAR GIB5611. Sounds a bit expensive, but if one is motivated to do the drumkit and you love to do, it's worth it because it's a quality product.

Before I had tried many batteries with a TD-6 KW (which has rubber skin, so you see the difference) and the YAMAHA DTXPRESS IV Special Set. Even if it has a hi-hat pedal, level as a bounce, sound and customization kits, there's no picture!

Oh yes for this budget that choice I would do without hesitation, because the TD-12 is still more expensive at € 1000!

How long have you use it?
Just a few days.
What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The drumkit is a fantastic point of view sound (quality and diversity. It may be a lack supplmentaire cymbals (Ride) The sound of plastic cymbals and hi-hat is still quite Submitted. Good point on the other hand for toms with mesh skin.
Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
I could try TD3 kw. The module is well below the TD6. The Yamaha seems to me DTXPRESS lower level of touch and sensitivity.
How do you report qualitprix?
I was able to offer me the opportunity to TD6 kx. Eu bargain. But new, 1700 Euro for the electronic is not given. But when there is this solution to play an instrument pluttgnant for neighbors ...
Exprience with, you will do again this choice?
Yes, because in the price range I m'tais fix this is probably the best quality price. The Roland TD9 KX is out. TD9 module it is much better than the TD6. I do not know. Is to see.

it'll be a month since I bought (on ebay). I never imagined one day buy an electronic drum kit (ugly, not cool) but you see: tired of not being able to play when you want where you want or you can register free of crazy stuff ... So I fell for this model which seemed to warranty a minimum level of sensation of touch. Given bet! It's just enjoyable, even if the sensitivity is different from an acoustic (another debate which I leave to others to speculate). I love the sound, I love being able to play with my Ipod headphones over, I love to register on my pc (after a few galleries I will admit, they do not once the word in PC record ... live forums). To train it well when there is time, with the click and the ability to play over your favorite songs! Some still snag: the GC that actually makes a little noise with a double above. the cymbals are a bit of legèretées but honestly let's be honest apart from the limits of 6V module TD this kit is awesome! Anyway I have no regrets, and then reselling it has to go quite easily ...
