Product Overview
For the beginner electronic drummer that needs a stellar sound module on a budget, take a good look at Roland's TD-17! Featuring the very same Prismatic Sound modeling engine as their flagship TD-50, this module provides professional-quality expressive drum sounds that make your kit feel and sound authentic. This means you're offered a wider dynamic range on the 50 drum kits, plus the ability to perform rimshots, rolls, flams, half-open hi-hats, and other nuances. Using the onboard tuning and muffling controls, PAD EQ, multi FX and more, you can even create your own kits and instruments, or import samples from an SD card.
The TD-17 is not only a fantastic sound modeling module, but it also trains you to be a better drummer. Its "Coach Mode" has several functions to help you warm up, track your technique, measure your progress and more. You can also play along to your favorite songs or online drum tutorials thanks to its Bluetooth connectivity to your smartphone, helping you find your groove.
