A Whole New Generation of V-Drums

Roland’s V-Drums TD-27KV2 is the definition of a do-it-all electronic drum set, boasting world-class set of pads and a newly enhanced TD-27 sound module. 75 preset kits — 10 of which are all-new to the TD-27 sound module — cover just about every percussion application imaginable. If you’re after a more personalized sound, deep editing capabilities allow you to tune, tinker, and tweak every facet of your tone, and you can even upload custom WAV samples via SD card. Looking for top-quality pads? The CY-18DR ride, KD-10 kick, PD-140DS snare, and three PDX-100 toms are time-tested classics found in previous generations of the TD-27KV family and all-time favorites of Sweetwater’s eDrum enthusiasts. However, the CY-12C-T, CY-14C-T, and VH-14D crash/hi-hat cymbals have been thinned down and revamped for vastly improved expressive potential! An MDS-STD2 stand wraps up the TD-27KV2 with a road-ready reliability, keeping your setup solid show after show, session after session.

The 5-piece Roland TD-27KV2 Includes:

  • Generation Two TD-27 sound module
  • 14-inch PD-140DS snare
  • 10-inch PDX-100 toms (x3)
  • 14-inch VH-14D hi-hat
  • 12-inch CY-12C-T crash
  • 14-inch CY-14C-T crash
  • 18-inch CY-18DR ride
  • KD-10 kick
  • MDS-STD2 stand

Generation 2 TD-27 Sound Module

The power of Prismatic Sound Modeling

Just like Roland’s top-of-the-line TD-50 sound module, the TD-27 is powered by Roland’s cutting-edge Prismatic Sound Modeling. This system’s exceptionally deep editing capabilities allow you to shape and tune just about every facet of your kit, from the shell’s tone and tuning to cymbal size and articulation. Moreover, Prismatic Sound Modeling features virtual mic placement to dial in liveliness and room ambience — there’s even a library of new effects including roomy reverb, compression, and more to effortlessly capture a studio-quality sound!

PureAcoustic Ambience Technology

Apart from your shells, one other sonic component shapes every element of your kit’s tone: the room. In the past, electronic kits could sometimes have the feeling of playing in a vacuum, which is why Roland developed their innovative PureAcoustic Ambience Technology to create a natural and immersive foundation for your eDrum sound. PureAcoustic imbues every strike of the set with life-like roominess to take your kit’s tone to a whole new level of realism.

10 all-new kits

Generation Two of the TD-27 amps up the sonic versatility, delivering a vast array of 75 preset kits developed with professional drummers. 10 of these kits are all-new to the TD-27, and many of the legacy kits were fine-tuned and tweaked by Roland, sounding better than ever before! As if that wasn’t enough, improved integration with Roland Cloud makes it a breeze to download fresh new kits from Roland’s ever-expanding library, including many signature artist sets that put the power of the world’s top players directly into your hands.

Craft a custom kit

In addition to the vast collection of preset drum kits, the TD-27 allows you to import your own WAV sounds via SD card to build your own personal instrument or integrate a specific sample into a preset kit. From lo-fi percussion samples to full-length audio loops, the TD-27’s customization possibilities are truly endless!

Simplify your recording setup

If you’re building up a home studio, an electronic drum kit is just about the easiest way to lay down your drum tracks — no mics, interface, or excessive noise required! The TD-27 outputs a whopping 28 channels of multitrack audio to your DAW via a single USB cable for near-silent recording of studio-quality beats. Plus, the TD-27 can be rigged up as a USB MIDI interface, allowing you to re-track or trigger parts using virtual instruments in your DAW. Lastly, the stereo mix output and two assignable outputs are a must-have feature for performing musicians who regularly hook up their set to a PA mixer.

Expand your potential

While the TD-27-KV2 comes with just about everything a drummer could ever want, we more than understand the never-ending need to tinker and build upon your setup. Fortunately, Roland includes three extra auxiliary trigger inputs on the TD-27 sound module to further upgrade your kit!

Bluetooth MIDI and song streaming

The TD-27’s built-in Bluetooth transceiver is sure to elevate your practice and recording sessions. Music can be streamed directly from your device to the module, allowing you to practice with your favorite grooves and fills.

Note: Hi-hat stand is sold seperately.

TD-27KV2 Pads and Stand

18-inch digital ride is Roland's most convincing V-Cymbal yet

Electronic cymbals have a reputation for being utilitarian — a means to end. But the Roland CY-18DR invites players to bring their acoustic touch back to their eKit. This 18-inch V-Cymbal sways and plays like a real cymbal. Multiple sensors across the playing surface eliminate the feeling of zones; distinct edge, bow, and bell tones melt into one another seamlessly. And the Roland CY-18DR's multi-touch technology not only lets you choke crash attacks with your hand, but also even soften cymbal attacks with a finger's touch. If you have trouble getting the full emotion of a performance to translate through traditional eCymbals, Sweetwater recommends putting the Roland CY-18DR V-Cymbal digital ride through its paces. You won't be disappointed.

Top-of-the line VH-14D hi-hat

The crown jewel of the TD-27KV2’s impressive set of pads is the VH-14D, a 14-inch pad that sets the standard for acoustic-like realism. A two-piece design, open/closed resolution, and touch-sensitive multi-sensor system delivers unmatched expression potential, tracking every subtlety of your stick’s strike. Foot splashes sound better than ever, and you can even mute the cymbal with a quick grab — just like a real cymbal! It might not be made out of bronze, but you’d be hard-pressed to tell the VH-14D apart from the real thing.

14-inch digital snare plays like the real deal

The TD-27KV2's snare drum is sophisticated as its sound module. Eight sensors across the 4.3-inch x 14-inch Roland PD-140DS's head and rim accurately translate your performance into the electronic realm. This means fat backbeats, cutting rimshots, delicate ghost notes, brush sweeps, and natural cross-sticks that connect every time. And because of its 14-inch diameter, the Roland PD-140DS transitions seamlessly between your acoustic kit and back. Particular about your tuning? So are we at Sweetwater. Fortunately, the PD-140DS's 8-lug design and 3-ply mesh head make it easy to dial in whatever level of tightness or sponginess you desire.

V-Kick supports single and double pedals

The Roland TD-27KV2's tower-style bass pad features an adaptive playing surface that responds more like an acoustic drumhead, providing realistic feedback for attack and dynamics. Its redesigned frame greatly reduces physical movement to minimize flexing and scooting. On a rug or carpet, it's rock solid, with spurs to anchor the pad in place. Roland designed the KD-10 to accept single or double pedals, so whatever style of music inspires you, this pad delivers.

What else is included?

  • PDX-100 toms (x3): Roland’s PDX-100 V-Toms sport a dual-trigger design for a nuanced response that captures your strikes across both the head and rim. Plus, the head can be precisely tensioned to your personal playing style.
  • CY-12C-T and CY-14C-T crash cymbals: This generation of Roland V-Drums features a thinner, more sensitive CY-12C-T and CY-14C-T crash cymbals. In addition to their new low profile, both of these cymbals offer a choke control that functions just like a traditional cymbal — just grab the edge! Both cymbals sport a dual-trigger design, with sensors on both the bow and edge for a wide variety of configuration options.

INSANE

This kit is insane. I've been skeptical of electronic drums for a long time. I was wrong. The sound quality is superb. The response and sensitivity of the triggers and pads is perfect. And above all the customizability of every sound is endless. You can control every detail of every drum and cymbal; tighten snares, tune pitch, muffling, shell depth, cymbal size, head type, beater type, and so much more. I had previously been using low-volume cymbals and mesh heads on my acoustic kit to play at home, which sounded terrible and was extremely limited. The TD27 changed my life. It feels like you're playing a real drum kit and you have the pinnacle of electronic drum tech at your fingertips. The digital hat, snare, and ride in particular are mindblowingly realistic.

Pictured is my TD27 maxed out. It's a dream. I've been playing drums for about 20 years and this thing has revolutionized the way I can play at home.

Last but not least, Sweetwater is always exceptionally helpful and friendly. Thank you Derek and everyone else!

Still the best eDrum maker!

This is my second Roland set after using my TD7 for 15 years, which is still going strong with its new owner. I did have two Alesis sets in between that were absolute crap by comparison. I really tried to like the Strike Pro since the price was similar to what I paid for the TD27KV2, but there is no comparison in quality, functionality and sound. Very happy with this set.

All the right Stuff!

The TD27kv2 gives you all the top end digital elements and a top notch sound module. Feel and sound are convincing. I have a DW Collectors kit, but needed a no volume practice set up for home. Response and feel are close enough with good dynamic range to still keep working on technique and accented lines. The snare is amazing. Ride and hats are close, but with a few adjustments can be dialed in to your taste. So many kit options so that I am able to match up to my DW sound. KD10 kick pad is sufficient and I get a good feel and response. Using a pdp 800 double pedal and hats make for a perfect budget pedal that responds to the KD10 quite well. (And Im a DW9000 pedal guy). Only complaint would be the KD10 as it moves a bit and you have to clamp it tight to the pedal and spike it in the carpet. Recommend a better supported kick module with spiked legs, like the kd85. I may upgrade the kick pad, but sound and feel is fine. Overall, very impressed. I did not need the looks or higher price of the VAD series. This is my first ekit, so glad I went with this model and package with the digital snare!

Amazing quality for the best value

Excellent choice for new and old e-drummers. Best value and price.
Some people might prefer a full size set for the looks. But I think this set looks sharp and it is as good as the Roland 506 with the td27 module for a much better price. As a typical Acoustic drummer and percussionist, I had to start with A great set like this Roland. The module is great. Very good for beginners that need to practice alot with headphones. And you can use it for live performances. The sounds in this module are very good.
But I would recommend going up another notch using Drum software for recording albums or client work.
I can actually play fast dynamic jazz and brazilian, afro or cuban music. I couldn't do that using e-drums a few years ago.
This kit has best Snare, High hat and ride cymbal 18'in the e-drum world. Many sensors.
Go ahead and get it here at Sweetwater, because you can speak to a real person that actually cares! They rock!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2024 for all of you !!

Blown away by the quality of the kit and service

I had been an Alesis user for close to ten years when I went shopping for a new electric kit. I had several people recommend the Roland TD-27 because they said it had most of the functionality of the 50 at about half the cost. Well, this kit has exceeded my every expectation, and made me wonder why I waited so long to make the jump. (I was just loyal to Alesis, because my previous kit took a pounding forever and just keep on working.) I've already used this for gigs and it's providing all I need and more.

And the service from Sweetwater? Fantastic. Adam Cesarz, the guy assigned to my account, surprised me with his knowledge because he's not a "drum guy." I'm glad someone recommended Sweetwater to me.

Simply put, modern electronic music wouldn't exist without Roland. Many of the electronic musicians here at Sweetwater cut our teeth on TR Rhythm machines and fondly remember programming our first TB-303s. We owe a good part of our careers to this amazing and innovative company. It's been fun to watch and grow right alongside Roland, as they've introduced wave after wave of revolutionary keyboards, digital pianos, and more. For example, Roland's V-Drum Kits continuously redefine the possibilities of electronic drums, beginning with SuperNATURAL technology to the latest Prismatic Sound Modeling. We're huge fans, and we'd love to tell you all about them. Whether you want a pocket-sized synth or a cutting-edge video mixer, if Roland makes it, then Sweetwater is 100% behind it.
