Roland's V-Drums series has long been the industry standard in the world of electronic drum kits. Trusted for their quality and durability, the TD-1DMK joins Roland's acclaimed product catalogue.
Essentially an upgraded version of the entry-level TD-1, the TD-1DMK most notably features all-mesh drum heads, something that you'd expect on only high-end setups. Giving you a very realistic feel, you can get the authentic stick response that you'd receive from a genuine acoustic kit.
Also featuring 15 meticulously-captured drum kit presets that can cope with almost any musical genre, the Roland TD-1DMK also boasts 10 onboard coaching functions to help you develop your skills. This kit is therefore perfect for beginners looking to take drumming seriously from the get-go!
Mesh Drum Heads
Roland are class-leaders in mesh drum head technology, and the TD-1DMK features the company's high-quality dual-ply pads. Featuring ultra-sensitive built-in sensors, these sophisticated heads can pick up every nuance of your playing, from rising crescendos to gentle ghost notes.
Coaching Functions
Much like the TD-17 series, the TD-1DMK has inherited similar coaching functions to help you refine your practice routine. You'll be a tight and proficient drummer in no time!
With a 'Time Check' feature, you can play along to a beat with the module monitoring your accuracy, showing you how in-sync your playing is. Not only improving your time-keeping, with the TD-1DMK's recording function you can also capture your playing and listen back to review your progress.
Metronome, Onboard Songs & Connectivity
A simple built-in metronome is also an essential addition, with adjustable tempo settings letting you build-up your sense of timing, speed and co-ordination.
But if that sounds boring, there are also 15 onboard songs that you can play along with, to make your practice session far more engaging! With these backing tracks made to accommodate different styles, you can also diversify your style to become a more versatile drummer overall.
However, if jamming along to your favourite tunes sound even more appealing, you can use the dedicated input on the intuitive module to connect your smartphone.
