Roland TD-50X Sound Demo on the VAD706 GN electronic drumkit

I have a Td50x and I want to upgrade to the new module. I have a digital snare,ride and hi hats. All of my toms and other cymbals are from Atv drums. Do I need to upgrade my toms as well or they will trigger fine with the new Roland v71? Thanks

super drummer - excellent

Still doesnt sound as good as i wish. Why doesnt Roland put the sounds library of the new DW soft ware in this kit since they own DW. Or the sounds in Superior Drummer ? I dont know what Rolands problem is not being willing to put top quality realistic acoustic sounding software in an $8000 dollar drumset.

👍!

This drummer is a master !!!!!

I have this exact kit for sale. If interested get back to me. It's only 6 months old.

Gorgeous kit

HI-HAT sounds like crap)))

can the sybals do cymbal mutes?

I think the 18" deep kick is stupid for a physical aspect.. would rather see 16 or 14 depth for space saving.

People ask who my drumming heros are amd expect me to say Ringo Starr, Steve Smith or something. They don't know what to say when I say Ralph from the Drum Tec videos.

Fire grooves

Hi bro!! You did paradiddles like you’re eating french fries hah😅😅 so smooth.. love it.. I’m a drummer too.. like ya style.. so similar to me♥️

Virtually every preset kit needs some serious tweaking. Its like getting a new guitar FX pedal, all the presets have everything full on. First thing to do is switch the Overhead mics off, it will improve the sound immediately. The ballad kit is totally useless and STUPID. Some one at Roland has no ears and in the wrong job. only about 4 preset kits sound good enough to use. The rest I would delete.

Nice Porcaro Shuffle in there.

sounds real. no delay.

I have a VAD 306 and just ordered a TD 50X to replace my TD17. It seems to be a beast of a module. I’ll see soon. Can’t wait to get it!

Good

Good good

Yeah, now td 50 have good sound, more realistic. I have vad306, please give me a suggestion, what do you prefer more? Pearl mimic for upgrade my vad306 or td50x? Thanks

Waw. Nice playing, great feel!

Only 14 trigger ins? Whats up with that? Double that then it might be worth the price.

that D&B sounds fantastic!

Is this electric drum set or accoustic drum???

Yup...sounds like a digital kit..

I don’t understand why these companies not team up with sample dev like GGD or SSd or SD3. Their samples are always better anyways. And for that price tag?

I could listen to this guys jam all day on anything man, pizza boxes, doesnt matter.

I watch these demos just for this guys playing style. I don't know what it is about how he plays, but man, I really enjoy how clean and confident he plays. Of course the set sounds great......better for that price tag.

At 4.58 he hits the rim of the first tam, and a perfect "rim-click" is played...... wow. Amazing. This is so awesome....

Good Lord.....

I'm planning to get a new edrum set. What noise level is the kick drum? I'm living in an apartment with neighbors above and beneath me.

for your drum sets do the bottoms also have mesh heads

Bass drum sounds amazing. You can hear the air being pushed

Hey Ralf. Thanks for the demo of this kit, which btw looks amazing. Top chops too! My question is how close are you finding the new td50x module compared to the likes of SD3 and other sample based software? Cheers

I’ve never heard a TD50 that didn’t sound… ‘fake’. They just don’t compare to an acoustic. I want to like them, but l’m always disappointed. It’s been many decades since the electric drum journey began, and in the late 90’s it started to seem like maybe we’d get realistic kits within a few years. Now it’s 2021 and they still don’t cut it. It’s quite disheartening.

Ralph or “the king of ghost notes” 🥰

How much does everything I see and hear?

Once again, Roland demonstrates how they only seem to dominate the market in terms of playability/expression with their flagship models. Impressive trigger tech, to be sure, but the competition is trailing so close on that front. I'm still not so impressed with their sample library, although it's (finally) improved somewhat. If you could load in the PMP samples and couple it with the advanced expression of the 50X, then you could crown it king... and somewhat justify the $8,000 tag.

all these great Roland sounds but ATV and EF NOTE still haven't figured out how to use a pair of brushes on their multi-thousand dollars e drums? I found that you can indeed use brushes on the TD27 and TD 50 Roland kits ....I have corrected my earlier comment

Wow, that Wood Phonic kit sound is awesome!

Okay that’s killer

I love that I've watched this dude drum for hours but never heard him talk 🤣👍

Awesome demo and playing as always Ralph! Curious to know your thoughts on the VH-14D triggering with a TD-27 vs TD50x? Is there anything in the VAD 706 apart from the bigger kick that should temp me to go that way over a VAD 506?

First of all: Sick playing as always!
I would give anything to get the top-of-the-line Roland pads simply for their durability and feel, but I never really loved their samples unfortunately. There are other brands out there that make better sounding sample in my opinion.

Sounds quite good, td50x will be my back up plan for my VAD506 if the Gewa G9 I just got doesn’t pan out

Dude is a monster on the drums

This has to be one of best demos of this kit! I don’t hear the “machine gunning” here. I’d love to hear this kit with the Pearl Mimic module

Всё очень классно звучит . Но и стоит тоже очень дорого

Q: What E-Drumset should I buy?😭
