100% right about keeping resale value. I have owned a HD-3, TD-3, TD-4 and a TD15KV. It has cost me a total of $0, purely because I have sold them for the exact price I bought them for.
Thanks for all the information that you post. I had just recently started to consider getting some electric drums since I am on 3rd shift. After watching some of your videos as well as other demo videos, I have been getting really excited! I really want to get a set that will keep my attention and build my creativity. The Alesis pro that was just released captured my attention, however I think you have sold me on the TD-30 module. The main thing is thank you. Your videos are helpful to the uneducated in electric drums.
Hey Justin ! , i am a keen follower of your videos & i must thank you for it ! , i am stuck between a TD25KV vs TD30K ...... could you give me your expert opinion on this choice ?
65 Drums thanks for your videos, I bought and returned a TD 25 kit because I'm very picky about the snare samples and couldn't believe how crappy they were on the td25, so I'll be buying a td30 kv and expand it. Keep up the insight and thanks again. Oops I meant td30 k
I find that you need to replace the CONE rather than the mesh head. If you've kept the mesh head clean then you can use it for 15 years without much issue. the foam Cone however, you must replace them every few years - They make 10x more difference than the mesh heads when replaced.
I was blessed to pick up a used 30K for $2400. After the honeymoon phase I am still extremely impressed by the sounds, durability, upgrade potential and construction. The bell on the ride is giving me some problems (I saw a video on how to fix that). Other then that, the rig is solid, can't stop playing it. I have a range of motion problem (due to ankle/foot injury). I moved to the more sensitive FD9 for the HH (using 1 spring and adjusted the pedal angle). I think electronic drums are great for quiet practice and for folks with disabilities, as you can improvise the triggers. Been using my guitar pedals with it too. Thanks for the advise!
I caved and picked a TD-30K up last year, knowing Roland is likely releasing something new soon. Hopefully that's not regrettable in a year! Waiting for that masterclass/tutorial ;)
yup, bought mine in dec 2015 form music junkie in leicester uk...brilliant kit, plays great sounds great and has a ton of excellent features...TD-40 is due though...maybe jan 2017?
Was looking into a used one of these. Great info in this video. I think no ability to import sounds might be a deal breaker for me. How is that not in there at that price!?
I really appreciate that man! I might change it back one day. But for me at least, the point of this channel is to talk about edrums. If I create another channel to do experimental drum stuff, solos and the like, I'll most definitely use my name on that one. I keep pushing myself to get better, I'm not really trying to become Neil Peart or Jojo Mayer. I don't know what will become of all this yet. I'm kinda making this up as I go along. We'll see what happens. Thanks for letting me know what you thing man :)
Great review. I have a td11k and probably will never go back to acoustic. I love my kit. I will say, I'm really excited to hear Alesis Strike kit. For the money, you get alot more if their sounds are up to par with Roland. That's the big question.
+William Cranke Yeah I've read that alot. I love Roland's sounds so much, but if the strike kit sounds are as good, I will probably buy it as my next kit.
While I do think Acoustic is definitely better, that's just personal preference really. I think they sound better and feel more natural. That isn't to say I don't love my Alesis Nitro though.
Don't anyone buy the td25 it's a shit module with horrible snare and kick sounds along with marginally decent Tom sounds, I know because I had one for about a week and be promptly returned it to guitar center. Justin is correct saying that the TD 30 is the best module for the money !!!
Dennis Rivenburg Got rid of mine, gonna get the TD 30K next week can't wait :). For anyone wanting to buy the 25KV: Just don't. It's way too small & the drum module is not worth the money.
Dang things are still 2500-3000 used in 2024. Which, is honestly reasonable because it's way better than some of the competition's current flagship products.
Hi Justin, really enjoying your videos and your work! At the moment I'm toying between a second hand TD30kse I've found, or a TD27KV brand new from my local store. Both are at roughly same price. I'm comparing both kits and they have so many similarities (the toms and cymbs are the same), but with better things on the TD27 than the TD30kse (the snare and Hihat is better on the kse in particular) but the TD30 has a better (if more complex, with too many features?) module. Both modules look like it has roughly the same content and usability, but the 27 was made for simplicity, and doesn't have all the unnecessary features. The 27 has td50 technology, whereas the td30 was their flagship. If you were in my position, which kit would you choose? Any advice much appreciated!
Thx sharing this video. Would still worth to get a used TD30 rather than TD25 in 2019? I'm struggle to make decision to choose one. Please let me know what's your thoughts. Thx
nepentheworld If you’re still thinking bout it, go with a used TD-30. The TD-25 is just not worth it. (Not worth to spend the money on a new one) Roland has 4 modules that are worth buying imo. From low to high end, TD-7, TD-9, TD-15 and TD-30. For all price points, any other kit (like the td 25) is just way too limited and triggering isn’t the best to say the least. I know that the td25 might sound a bit better on videos, (in comparison to the td7, 9 or 15) but it is not worth the money. Those are the 4 I would personally consider. Greetings
Hi Justin, The synth part at the start of this vid, is that a preset on the td30? Do you know if the same would be achievable on a td25? Keep up the great work, love your channel🤪
@@65Drums Thank you for replying - I am able to get either the TD25 or the TD30 - I found both kits for $2,500 used [Canada] - thats the cheapest [both used to save money] - Is that a good price?

@@SarahBeckC For whatever it is worth, I just $5,000 on a TD30 KV. It came with a Hi-hat stand, a snare stand, a throne and a rug. It is in perfect shape and it is super fun to play. I really liked the bigger kick drum and the heavy duty stand. Not sure if this helps, but thought I would share.
Justin, you mentioned that this module doesn't really cater to the rock/metal sounding kits out of the box which is what I primarily play. Would you say that the TD25 does cater more to the rock/metal sound? The 25/30 are the 2 kits I am looking at for my next kit.
Hey Justin, that was super! I will soon move to either this or TD 40, we'll see. How did you solve the issues with hot spots (central spots on the mesh that get too sensitive)?
+Justin Greenawalt thanks for the very quick answer. I'm surprised to hear that you don't find it a problem. In my 12 years experience with a TD-3 module with mesh snare (and trying the other models at some shops), I clearly notice that the piezo area returns a strong velocity peak and it is good to stay out of it, actually. The area is less than 1 cm in diameter, and it happens to hit it every now and then. I heard that people try to mitigate it by applying logarithmic sensitivity curves, and tightening the skin (which I don't like to do). Do you think this issue will be solved with the next releases of software on TD-30, or perhaps on TD-40? It's a big minus, considering the drum set quality and cost. I hope my English is clear enough 😊
I played a 10 for years. Loved it. I just got a 30 and I'm SOOO disappointed. First of all, why can't it send efx to the click? I loved sending delay efx to the click on the 10.. I expected the 30 to do EVERYTHING the 10 did and more...not more and less. And, why does the rim sound follow the head sound when scrolling thru sounds? So far, it looks like I can't assign any sound I want to a rim trigger..it has to be related to the sound assigned to the head trigger. I've only had it a few days, but I know the 10 so well, so that knowledge should translate to the 30. I was really excited about 6 backing tracks instead of 4..and 264 backing(seq/pattern) sounds instead of 54..and, usb out & flashdrive instead of those obsolete memory cards...that stuffs great but not to lose some of the 10s simple yet awesome functions. I like v's for the efx, sequencer, digital sounds etc... NOT how well they emulate acoustic drums..I HAVE acoustic drums for that. Anyway.. maybe I'm wrong about the rim/head thing.. but I don't think I am. looks like I'll be selling the 30 and getting another 10 (mines got issues) and a sampler/sequencer/dws. I was so excited .. 😑
Hey Justin ! , i am a keen follower of your videos & i must thank you for it ! , i am stuck between a TD25KV vs TD30K ...... could you give me your expert opinion on this choice ?
Thanks man! That's a tough dilemma. All I can say is that I wish the TD25 was out when I was shopping for a kit, its a better value for your money, I would have bought it.
well i gotta say i got lucky ! i have stumbled upon a pre owned TD30K for around $2700 , & its been only used 8 months ....... i hope that i m getting a fair deal .... what do you think Justin ?
I like the kit, Might consider buying the TD-30k. But i see (at the beginning example) that the bass drum moves a lot. Is that a problem while playing?
I discovered a little trick to stabilize the KD-120 out of necessity due to the fact that the shipping company mis-treated the box and lost one of the stabilizing legs..........12" cymbal arm mount! I had a cheap Alesis cymbal arm mount sitting around and really wanted to play my new *used KD-120 so I used it as a stabilizing leg until the replacement showed up from Roland. Was able to use it for the 2 weeks it took to receive the replacement leg. To my surprise, I discovered that when I used the regular leg the unit was noticeably less stable. Ended up replacing both stabilizing legs with these (black) cymbal mount arms and not only is it rock solid.......I think it actually looks better.
Hey Justin! I'm thinking about transitioning into an edrum kit that is good for more than just practice. I want it to have good playability, great sounds from the Module, and that I wouldn't feel ashamed of when using it in a live gig scenario. I'm stuck in between the Roland TD-30k, the Yamaha DTX760K, the Alexis Strike, or perhaps even getting a Roland td-25kv and hooking it up to the Pearl Mimic (if it ever is released). I like Roland because they have a great reputation. I like Yamaha because they make acoustic drums so they should have some awesome samples. And I like the Alesis Strike for its stage presence but I fear reliability of the pads and hi-hat. I like the Mimic because it has a VST. What do you recommend I get that can meet this criteria? I'm confused!!!
+DrumTechReview well you've got a lot of stuff you're looking at! I'd pick between the Td30 and Strike. I can vouch for the td30k, I've had it for years. The Strike is getting a lot of positive reviews right now. There are a Few trigger issues, but the owners all love them. Hard decision.
Not keen on the 760k? I'm in the process of making a similar decision but seen a lot of physical faults in the Strike on the owners' FB group (foam sensors falling off of the underside of the tom heads)
What would you purchase out of a used TD30K or a brand new Alesis Crimson (with 1 extra Tom) I have the chance to buy either at pretty much the same price. Would be interested to hear your opinion.
Roland reduced considerably the TD-30 in all stores, prepare for a new replacement, and since there is no expansion cards slots available inside, it will be probably a new flagship.
But one thing this time is different, Roland wont do this discount for 5 month in retails store, normally Roland unveil at NAMM, but something is not working this time..and I think it's because of Pearl and Alesis, they will probably released before to get the first sales spots.
Thanks for the video. I've played drums for a long time, but not so much over the past 10 years because of the loudness. If I intend to only play this at home do you think it's worth going with the TD-30 versus the TD-20? Thanks for any input you can provide. Oh and subscribed. Thanks again!
If it’s gonna make you happy just do it! I just jam out in my room bought my td 30 for $3500 with high hat stand, pedal and throne, I’m super broke now but guess what it will give me years of fun and happiness so don’t stress it and get what you want
65 Drums I can buy a car for that price man haha. I'm just 21 right now in my grinding phase of life. Is the importing of sounds not being available on the td30kv a major draw back
The biggest draw back on this module, is the limited velocity layers on instrument to about 4, lower with cymbal, and not ability to imports your own sound..Make acoustic sound drum less realistic, with fills, roll and fast playing, too much overpriced.
+chris me That's a problem with the whole edrum industry, not just this module. But even with those limitations, it's still the best module sold right now
Well 2box don't have this problem while it was released before Td-30, up to 128 multilayers wav per instruments and you can imports your own...Lets see what Td-40 will bring, if it is a 20% improvement over Td-30 without multilayers sound and importing wav, this module wont be successful, they have been releasing this type of module since ages, all the same with minor improvement. Now Pearl is VST based, totally differents, and lets see Alesis Strike pro.
Wow so strange to think it's been 3 years since I started watching! Still loving the videos!
+Barber Drums That's crazy! Thanks:)

By the way, with mesh heads, you do have to replace them every once in a while. In my case, I need to get a new snare head and kick drum head.

New Roland, Module, Pad, Cymbal etc. facebook.com/VDrumsAustralia/videos/1234612949916927/
Thanks for the video. I've played drums for a long time, but not so much over the past 10 years because of the loudness. If I intend to only play this at home do you think it's worth going with the TD-30 versus the TD-20? Thanks for any input you can provide. Oh and subscribed. Thanks again!
trewmuzik If you still haven't i would recomend the TD17kvx
domofalltradez I just bought one today reasonably priced mid range kit.
If it’s gonna make you happy just do it! I just jam out in my room bought my td 30 for $3500 with high hat stand, pedal and throne, I’m super broke now but guess what it will give me years of fun and happiness so don’t stress it and get what you want
Does the td-25v allow you to import samples or the 50 or 40? Where's a great place to buy used edrums as well?
+Jay Man only the td50
65 Drums I can buy a car for that price man haha. I'm just 21 right now in my grinding phase of life. Is the importing of sounds not being available on the td30kv a major draw back
I just watched this video for the first time. Doesn't the stick get stuck in the hole in the mesh, once in a while? :)
Yes it did haha! I got rid of it :)
Hi, how are the snare sounds?
Yo Justin, if I were ur neighbor would I be pissed it u for noise or is it silent enough to be bearable (for my "very supportive" neighbors)
Your neighbors should be fine with an electonic drumset. Unless your walls are made of paper and they sleep right next to your house
Hi, what does the TD 30KV have that the TD-30k doesn't?
Finn The module is exactly the same, it’s the pads
I recently played the KV version at Guitar Center. Was really fun.
Do you like it better than the 50?
The TD50 is better
amazing
Its a great drumset
Hey Justin was thinking of upgrading to the the td30 from my 25. Does the 30 have a quick record feature?
I think so, but I never use it so I'm not sure. Its easier to just record into the computer anyway.
Hi, do you know if i can put an extra tom in the roland td-15k ??
+Juan Victor Carballo Blanco yes! 2 extra pads
Thank you for your help
you look so young back then...
I started the channel when I was 19ish
wow. thats some pretty good condition evem after 4 YEARS !
It really is
You never use v expressions?
+Matthew Moreno Never used it
I have several of their packages for my td20. Love it.
Ellis Medavoy I use them - great and easy to use/load
Do the heads break?
Yes, that happens to all drum heads. They last a long time, and then you replace them with new heads.
Justin Greenawalt I probably should've asked this earlier.. what about the cymbals?
+Delfin Ijo what about the cymbals?
Justin Greenawalt do they break as well??
+Delfin Ijo mine still work
Gotcha only perk is you use usb no laptop necessary
im sure your kit would sound way better with them.
+Matthew Moreno If I want it to sound better, I can just use EZdrummer2 on my laptop. I don't feel the need to pay for V expressions
Btw, what makes the td30k less better than the td30kv?
Pearl Mimic baby haha
+Sean Raden I can't wait to play it
The biggest draw back on this module, is the limited velocity layers on instrument to about 4, lower with cymbal, and not ability to imports your own sound..Make acoustic sound drum less realistic, with fills, roll and fast playing, too much overpriced.
+chris me That's a problem with the whole edrum industry, not just this module. But even with those limitations, it's still the best module sold right now
Well 2box don't have this problem while it was released before Td-30, up to 128 multilayers wav per instruments and you can imports your own...Lets see what Td-40 will bring, if it is a 20% improvement over Td-30 without multilayers sound and importing wav, this module wont be successful, they have been releasing this type of module since ages, all the same with minor improvement. Now Pearl is VST based, totally differents, and lets see Alesis Strike pro.
Lol he said to 40
