Features:
Roland V-drums TD-8 drum module brain for the V-Drum custom set. Over 1000 drums sounds and samples, incredible editing features, Tons of cool backup sounds as well.

Technical Specifications:


What I liked:
The sound. Best sounding drum module ever. Only one that could possibly beat this is the TD-8 V-Drum pro module. My drummer uses the TD-8 for his main drum brain now. Editing sounds is amazing - adjust for tuning, decay, shell type, shell depth, drumhead type, muffling type, simply wonderful sound control. Also has ambience effects. Mixer is very flexible, adjust levels, ambience send and panning for each drum part. 64 drums kits available.

What I didn't:
Haven't found anything I don't like yet. Since I'm the gearhead I've been using/programming this thing, the drummer sits down, plays, and makes his comments to me for fixes/desires. I love this thing.

User Tips:
Too many to list hear. You can get lost for hours creating many great sounding kits.
