All-Mesh Electronic Drum Kit

The TD-1DMK electronic drum kit features Roland’s renowned dual-mesh pads for snare and toms. The DMK in the name literally stands for double mesh kit.
Designed to match the feel of an acoustic drum kit without the noise, these double ply mesh heads are quieter than other electric drums and are built to be noticeably quieter when played. Perfect for those early morning / late night practice sessions. Also ideal for keeping the neighbours happy!

The mesh heads can also be tensioned using a drum key so that you can easily adjust the feel of the heads to your desired response. The durable mesh pads offer stronger stick resistance compared to other mesh heads for a natural rebound and feel.

The pads also respond to the subtle nuances in your playing by detecting the dynamics of your hits which are faithfully relayed for an authentic, naturally expressive drum kit sound. From quiet rolls to full-on hits the TD1DMK perfectly replicates your expressive dynamics.

The cymbals are fully choke-able to offer a response as close as possible to real cymbals for natural feel and sound.

The kick drum pad has been built to offer a natural feel and rebound to work seamlessly with your favourite choice of bass drum pedal. The soft rubber pads absorb the energy of the beater for super quiet performance. Its wide enough to accommodate both single and double pedals too.

A Module with Powerful Simplicity

When you sit down at an electronic kit the first thing you want to do is play. You don’t want to spend time flicking through the manual to figure out how to use it. Roland have made the TD1DMK module super simple to use to make sure you get up and drumming as soon as possible.

The simple-yet-powerful module features 15 preset drum kits to offer a variety of expressive drum sounds. From natural sounding acoustic drum kits to electronic samples the TD-1DMK has you covered.

The module offers fast processing for a reliable kit sound with no latency, meaning you hear the drum sound as soon as you hit the pad. 

The TD1DMK electronic kit module also provides the option to connect your smartphone via a mini-jack aux input. This allows you to play along to your favourite tracks.

Rock out without disturbing anyone else by connecting your headphones. Immerse yourself in your playing without other people hearing your practice. Then when you’re ready to show others your progress you can easily plug a speaker into the module to let others hear what you’ve been working on.

Progress with Onboard Coaching

Learning an instrument teaches children and adults alike the skills of discipline and determination. There’s nothing quite like the enjoyment and pride you feel when you accomplish a beat or groove you’ve been working on. That success is what spurs you on to continue progressing. The TD1DMK continuously supports students as they develop the concentration, patience and physical strength that comes with regular playing.

The Roland TD1DMK module features onboard coach functions to help students develop the accurate timing and solid beat keeping that is essential to being a drummer. The onboard metronome, with adjustable tempo and timing settings, and 10 coaching functions serve to help you see how well you’re improving.

Speak to many professional drummers and they’ll tell you that recording yourself is one of the best ways to hear your development and track your progress. Do you really sound as good as you think you do? This Roland TD1 kit includes a record function that allows you to listen back to what you’ve just played, providing an ideal way to evaluate your learning progress.
