Roland TD-07DMK Electronic V-Drums Kit

After a month of ownership, I'm very happy with it. But there are two things that surprised me when it arrived. Number one: it doesn't come with a kick pedal. The photos show a double-kick pedal, but it doesn't include that, nor does it include a regular kick pedal at all. You need to buy one separately, even if you don't plan on learning double bass. Personally, I wound up going with a TAMA 310 Speedcobra pedal (which is a double-kick pedal), and both of its beaters fit perfectly well within the Roland TD-07DMK's included kick pad. So, unlike what some sources online might say, you DON'T need to upgrade the kick pad for playing double bass - the one that comes in this box works perfectly. In any case, it would be nice if the listing were more clear that you need to buy a kick pedal separately. They can be pricey. The Speedcobra cost me a bit over $200 used. Single-kick pedals cost around half that, but it's still something that can be a surprise if you're not budgeting for it. So anyway, if you're budgeting for this kit, make sure you factor in that kick pedal, a drum throne, drumsticks, and a pair of headphones with aux input. That should be all you need to get started. Unless you're particularly tall, which brings me to my second point... Number two: the drum kit is slightly short. Everything is adjustable, but even adjusting it to the highest heights, I found that it was still around 3-4 inches too short for me to be comfortable playing (I'm 6'2", for reference). Depending on your height, that might not be an issue. I did solve it by taking a few cinder blocks and propping the legs up on those, so it was a quick and cheap fix. Just something to keep in mind. Anyway, once everything was actually set up and comfortable, I was very happy with the purchase. You don't need to connect it to a computer to play, but you can, using the same type of USB cable that printers use. This opens a lot of doors, as you can use apps like Melodics to learn, which judge your playing in realtime. Without a computer, it's still useful. It has a built-in metronome with a handful of settings to tweak (tempo, sound, volume). You can connect your phone to it over Bluetooth, and whatever audio you play on your phone will play through the aux output - the main purpose, of course, being that you can play along to songs that you're playing on Spotify or whatever. The drumkit also has a "coach" feature, which asks you to play along to a metronome and then judges how well you're staying in time.

Kids working on being the next Bun E Carlos. When we need to hear we do. Then the headphones. You know Dave Grohl learned to drum on pillows. These are way better. Sound is great. Different settings. Solid product. Boom boom boom. Don’t know what less expensive ones sound like or quality. But these are very good

This is an awesome instrument, it's not hard to assemble, connecting to your laptop is just plugging a usb cable to the usb port on your laptop, the software is easy to instaall and lots of fun to play with and learn from. My daughter loves this drum set and uses it nearly daily. Other pluses are the amount of space it saves and she can play it without producing all the noise that acoustic drum make so she is no longer exiled to practicing drumming in the hot garage. She now plays it in her bedroom.

The sounds aren’t too bad. being able to play into the computer through midi and really change/ tweak the sounds afterward is nice for recording too. The dynamics and playability are really a lot better than most e-drums out there. I’m thinking about eventually upgrading to the vh10 hihat to put on a regular stand and use the one provided for the extra cymbal. I like being able to get an actual crash sound just by hitting on the end of the ride, I’m guessing you can turn that off when adding the extra cymbal and get more of a wash out of the ride tho. If not I may have to upgrade the ride eventually too. I might also upgrade the snare and exchange the provided bigger snare pad to the floor Tom. All works fine as is tho. I like the smaller size of the pads and don’t find them clumsy. The td07 module meets all my needs. sometimes the hihat pedal isnt the most accurate when trying to splash and play more intricate beats, but just the fact that you can even do that with it is a step up from most. If I had the money now I would have bought a kit that already has the upgrades I mentioned.

I did a lot of research to figure out exactly what I needed, and the TD07 kit didn't disappoint. The smaller footprint and relatively quiet pads are perfect for living in a shared apartment. The kit was pretty easy to set up, and provides all the tools, instructions, and cables you need. The control system works as expected, with a good selection of kits and sounds, and the bluetooth connects to my phone every time without a problem. I plug my headphones (standard 3.5mm headphone jack) into the system when I play, and both the kit sounds and bluetooth music have good quality with no noticeable latency. The drum and cymbal pads themselves are Roland's most basic sizes, but they're still top-quality with a realistic feel. Additionally, you can easily upgrade with larger pads or cymbals as needed, and the system allows for one extra input (you can use it to add an additional pad/cymbal, but I used the extra input to replace the ride cymbal with the CY-13R so I could play the bell). The only downside is the kit doesn't include a kick pedal or drum throne, so you'll need to purchase those separately (as well as drum sticks - I recommend plastic tip sticks to reduce wear on pads), and you'll need a USB type B cable if you want to connect the kit to your computer (not required). Happy drumming!

This is a super great kit. Yes , the toms are small , but it helps you become a more precise drummer. The sounds are absolutely amazing. Roland never disappoints.

Very beautiful feeling drums. A little bit to get it together. Youtube video helped a lot and we should hv looked there first before starting. We having started it up as in turning it on yet but we can tell by the heads that it plays like butter. Very Happy and Lucky to have such a beautiful drum set!

Very good for practicing.

I like the sound quality, it is value for money, at the stage of recording and mixing with features like eq of pads such as selecting frequencies not available in the module. At recording stage dual zone issue with hi hat as well as hi speed tempos. Well researched support required from seller and product experts.

Le TD 07 est bon pour débuter Personnellement j’ai opter pour le TD 17 kvx2 De beaucoup mieux supérieur Voilà mon opinion

En la imagen del producto aparecen tres pedales pero únicamente trae uno, y no incluye el pedal del bombo lo que hace ilógica la compra de una bateria incompleta. En la reseña no te dice que ese pedal NO está incluído por lo que no es una venta honesta

FD-1 terrible design .. the 3 or 4 grommets near the heel need to be one entire flat surface grommet I had the pedal less then a week and the plastic for the heel already snapped in half I'm gonna ask amazon for for a replacement but I'm not sure rather lining the under the heel with shoe goo would void my warranty... it goes \__/ with the grommets where I apply pressure to my heel while playing it should be a grommet pad

have 2 different Alesis E-drum in the past, they are very good for budget. Move on to TD07 although price is higher, everything is good
