The perfect setup to begin your journey into the digital drum domain.
The Roland TD-3SW V-Compact Electronic Drum Set combines the great sounds and Rhythm Coach training features of the TD-3 module with an improved, more natural feeling pad set. It's an ideal electronic drum kit that's perfect for students and others who want to explore e-drumming at a wallet-friendly price. Headphone and aux in jacks let you practice in privacy anywhere and anytime.
The TD-3 Percussion Module is loaded with 114 high-quality drum and percussion sounds arranged into 32 kits. The easy-to-use interface gets you into the V-Drum groove right away. Finding the right kit is simple: just use the Phrase Preview function to hear a short demo of each kit. Fifteen types of ambience and compression effects can be applied to every kit. The enhanced Rhythm Coach function will help you polish your timing, speed, and endurance using several exercises. With 9 trigger inputs, it's easy to expand the TD-3S with more pads.
Professional feel at a beginner-friendly price. With Roland's digital drum pads and triggers, you get ultra-realistic feel and superb expressiveness at an easy price. The PDX-8 10" mesh snare pad offers enhanced feel in a precision dual-trigger design. PD-8 rubber pads support separate head/rim triggering.
The improved CY-5 hi-hat pad offers ultra-sensitive hi-hat control and improved playability. The FD-8 Hi-Hat Controller gives you more authentic sound with smooth transitions between open and closed.
The CY-8 cymbals offer swinging motion with great response, separate bow/edge triggering, and choke capabilities. Their look more closely resembles acoustic cymbals. The KD-8 Kick Trigger Pad's vertical design not only gives you great feel compared to reverse-type triggers, but it also reduces trembling so you get nothing but solid kick sounds. The KD-8 will even accommodate double-bass pedals. Kick pedal is not included.
This includes the MDS-3C package, which contains the entire drum set stand for the TD-3SW Electronic Drums. MDS-3C components include the drum set rack, the clamps and arms for the pads and the cymbals, and the mounting plate that attaches to the bottom of the TD-3 percussion module.

Best kit at the price level!
This is my first electronic kit after playing an acoustic TAMA Star Classic for 5 years in a small garage band. The sound is incredible either through a good set of headphones or a simple keyboard amp. The feel is a lot more like an acoustic kit than I could have imagined, the responsiveness is tight, and the options allow you to vary to your playing style with ease. Through many hours of performance, I've had not a single miss trigger, cross talk, or skips. Wow! I tried nearly every mid range electronic kit on the market from Alesis to Simmons as well as the Yamaha kits. The results were far from the same across the board. For the little extra money, the Roland was the only choice for me. After many long hours of research via the internet, I'm certan I made the right choice for the money. The cymbals and pads allow for the most explosive, clear sounds in comparison to the others, and of course, the dual zone w/ choke capabilities play well into my style. The mesh snare head w/ dual zone sounds as good as any acoustic I've played, and you certainly get a better feel than with that of a simple rubber pad. The brain at this price level is very simple, and does not allow for a great deal of sound options (no voice etc.), but that option never made my list of criteria so I'm very happy overall. You can still create and store custom kits, which was an option highest on my list. The stand is as solid as a rock, and holds up to the most rigorous of playing styles with ease. It's light weight, compact, has a cross-member support, and the cymbal and pad fasteners have held securely over many hours of playing under various styles, formats, and tempos. This kit allows for precision practice, performs flawlessly with a double bass pedal, and has been great at smaller venues where the transport of the full range acoustic kit would not be practical or convenient. Play on the kit has been somewhat of a struggle starting out in getting a proper feel for the high hat, but the options available permit a wide range of playing styles. After quality time spent in "tweaking" the layout of the pads and cymbals as well as the rack, smoothness of play has more than matched that of the acoustic. If you can afford to spend a little more "dough", the Roland will not disappoint.
