Second-generation TD-17 sound module

No matter what style you’re after, the TD-17’s updated array of 70 premium-quality kits have you covered! The second generation of the TD-17 boasts a re-vamped sound engine, in addition to 20 brand-new preset kits — half of which were only previously available on the top-of-the-line VAD-306. Moreover, these kits feature 26 built-in samples that can be added to your custom kits, offering a whole new level of percussion personalization. From metal blast beats to EDM grooves to dry recording kits, the TD-17 is loaded with versatile sounds for any genre, and you can even upload your own sounds as WAV files via SD/HC card to craft the kit of your dreams. Moreover, each and every sound can be fine-tuned with the TD-17’s impressive processing and effects engine with snare tension, compression, EQ, reverb, and many more sonic sculpting tools.
Bluetooth MIDI and song streaming
The TD-17’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. Plus, if you’re in a creative mood, the TD-17’s Bluetooth functionality can also send your beats wirelessly as MIDI notes, capturing your inspiration for later. Finally, audio/MIDI over USB and a standard 5-pin MIDI output are available for musicians who prefer the old-school reliability of a cord connection.

Plenty of pads
PDX-12 snare pad
This kit’s wide assortment of pads starts off with the PDX-12, a 12-inch dual-trigger snare pad that boasts an incredibly realistic feel and response. The 12-inch size offers an easy transition for players migrating from a kit-size snare. Plus, a tunable 2-ply head allows you to dial in your preferred level of rebound, from a solid, tight bounce to a loose wallop. For the uninitiated, switching from a traditional snare to a pad can feel like a compromise, but the PDX-12 truly captures the natural feel of an acoustic snare.
KD-10 kick pad
Looking for a kick pad with the feedback of a traditional acoustic head? The tower-style KD-10 kick pad delivers exceptionally organic playability, capturing every nuance of your playing dynamics. A combination of a rock-solid frame and anchoring spurs keep the KD-10 firmly in place, allowing you to stomp out even the most aggressive of double-bass blast beats with impunity.
VH-10 hi-hat
Mount this advanced 10-inch hi-hat pad to your favorite hi-hat stand (not included) using the included clutch and trigger base, and the VH-10 rewards you with realistic pumps, splashes, and closed-to-open contrast. Its dual-trigger system is able to capture nuances that many other electric drum kits miss. And its textured playing surface reduces acoustic volume to keep practice and performances quiet.
