Posts Tagged ‘Roland HD-1 V-Drums Lite Electronic Drums’

I really wanted a 100% mesh head Roland v drum kit, but $3000.00 was out of my price range for what I do. I use Kit sounds 1 and 2 only. They are great through head phones, and my project studio monitors. I get a jazz set, and a rock set. My old acoustic drums only had one jazz set sound, lol. The midi out is great for triggering my VSTI drum sounds for my software sequencer (Acid Pro). I am an old Drum Corps drummer. I have played with jazz fusion combo’s and hard core troops. I had truly lost the love for playing drums (burnt out), until I decided to dump the acoustic drums, and get this quality Roland HD-1 V drum lite. They take up very little room, and won’t piss off the Neighbors. The rack is solid, but does tend to shake a bit because of the attached pedals. I switched to 7A sticks for this kit, because the mesh head snare is very sensitive, and the cymbal triggers respond best in my opinion to a smaller stick.
