Roland TD-1KPX2 V-Drums Portable Electronic Drum Kit, Black

Authentic Playability, Maximum Portability, and Twin-pedal Compatibility The TD-1KPX2 offers the same innovative, highly acclaimed folding design of the TD-1KPX V-Drums Portable with an updated kick pad. Roland's famous mesh-head V-Pads for snare and toms deliver an inspiring drumming experience with natural rebound, feel, and playability, while the kick pad is now perfect for either double or single kick pedal setups, thanks to a wider playing surface. The TD-1KPX2's unique folding design allows the kit to be packed down in seconds for easy transport and storage without removing the pads and cymbals. And despite its minimal footprint and light weight, the durable stand offers rock-solid stability for any performance style. Setup is fast and simple, letting you play the TD-1KPX2 anywhere home, live gig, or rehearsal studio. Simply add a twin or single acoustic kick pedal and start drumming! Quick Fold-Down for Space-Saving Storage, and Quick Setup When You're Ready to Play Solid, durable, and easy to set up, the TD-1KPX2's innovative folding stand adapts to fit any storage space or travel situation. You can partially fold the stand and the pads, slimming the kit into a smaller size that can easily be placed in the corner of your room. Folding the kit completely reduces the size even further, allowing it to fit into the dedicated carrying case for out-of-the-way storage and streamlined transport. Setting up the TD-1KPX2 is a breeze all you need is a dedicated drum tuning key and you're ready to play in seconds. Simply unfold everything, adjust the stand and pad positions, attach an acoustic kick pedal (not included), and start drumming. Compact Pads and Cymbals with Authentic Playing Feel While the TD-1KPX2's pads and cymbals are compact, their playability is not compromised in any way. The 8-inch PDX-8 and 6.5-inch PDX-6 mesh-head V-Pads feature Roland's amazing dual-triggering technology for accurate and even sensing between the head and rim. On the PDX-8 snare pad, the rim area expands the pad diameter to 10 inches, allowing for comfortable and quiet rim shots. CY-5 cymbal pads for cymbals and hi-hat provide 10-inch playing surfaces and swinging movement for natural response and great playing feel. The cymbals have separate bow and edge triggering and support chokes for a true-to-life playing experience, while the hi-hats offer smooth and subtle tonal transitions from open to closed. The big story with the TD-1KPX2 is the ability to play double-kick patterns, thanks to the wider kick pad that accommodates two side-by-side beaters when using a twin acoustic kick pedal setup. Stay Motivated with On-board Training Functions That Make Learning Fun Built into the TD-1KPX2 module is a wealth of enjoyable functions to encourage learning, no matter whether you're teaching yourself to play, studying regularly with an instructor, or simply wanting to keep your skills in shape. Think of this kit as your own live-in drum teacher and personal backing band, packed with tutorial features that develop technique, boost motivation, and help you get the most out of practice time.
