collapse expand iconDescription

Get grooving with the second-generation Roland TD-17KVX2 e-kit, including a compact, 4-post rack and the TD-17 module loaded with an entire library of high-quality sounds, samples and artists kits. Featuring 70 premium quality kits—including 20 new preset kits and a revamped sound engine—the module also allows you to upload your own samples as WAV files via an SD/HD card for virtually endless percussive styles and personalization options. From metal blast beats to chill vaporwave grooves, the TD-17 module contains everything needed to easily handle any genre. The kit comes with enhanced mesh drum pads for an authentic drumming experience, along with slim, thin-profile cymbals for an improved stick feel over the previous generation. And if you’re still on the hunt for fresh sounds, Roland Cloud provides access to even more signature artist kits, so download and dig into your favorites.

Low-Profile Mesh-Head Drum Pads

The TD-17KVX2 comes with upgraded snare and tom pads that more accurately simulate the feel of an acoustic kit. A 12" snare and three 10" PDX-8 tom pads feature tension-adjustable mesh heads for a customizable, acoustic-like response and rebound. The snare also features a traditional hoop height, making it easier to hit rim shots at a comfortable stick angle. A KD-10 kick pad is also included and retains a satisfying acoustic kick drum “thud” even as it absorbs most of the impact noise thanks to carefully engineered rubber components. (Kick pedal and hi-hat stand sold separately.)

Slim, Responsive Cymbals

The TD-17KVX2 e-kit also comes with two CY-12C-T crash cymbals and a CY-14R-T ride that attach to stands with a special pivot mount to provide an acoustic-style swing motion and stick response when played. Just like a real acoustic cymbal, each of these can be choked by simply grabbing the edge. The 14" ride also features three-way triggering with independent sounds for the edge, bow and bell. The included 10" VH-10 hi-hat pad can be mounted to any hi-hat stand using its clutch and trigger base, and provides realistic splashes.
