With hundreds of new sounds, real-audio songs and patterns onboard, plus new practice function of Scope and Quick Rec/Play built-in even with V-Hi-Hat (VH-11) full compatibility and 3-way ride triggering available, and a Scope Mode skill builder built-in, the TD-9 raises the bar significantly in its price range.

Friendly interface
Outfitted with a large, backlit display with accompanying oversized buttons and controls, the TD-9’s friendly and icon-based interface makes editing sounds and customizing kits, fast and fun. Drummers can play along with real-audio backing songs to build their own musical experience base.

USB
You can use the TD-9's USB port to play along to streaming audio files (WAV) of your choice. “Quick Record” and “Quick Play” features allow drummers to immediately record and play back solo drum parts, or drum parts performed with the backing songs.

You can't get a better sounding kit anywhere for less than $2,500! We purchased the td-9 SX for our church and everyone is amazed with the sounds. It is also very portable. you don't need to take i... read more [+]t apart to fit it in the back of a mini-van! close [-]

I recently puchased the TD-9. I have not had the time to explore all the features. By nature of my job I am away a lot. However, within minutes I had the kit set up. Then a very brief glance at the ow... read more [+]ners manual showed me how to adjust the sounds for each module. This is the first electronic set I have owned, but not the first set I've played. Just like accoustic drums, this set up offers very good quality sounds. Or you can get funky, or even alien. There are hundreds of possibilitys listed in the book or you can just use the function keys and dial them up. There is also User kits that you build. It's fun and easy. The little time that I had so far brought up two concerns. The hi-hat volume and the headphone volume. Of course that can be easily fixed by adjusting other levels. Or maybe I just need a better monitor. close [-]

TD-9

I have both the TD-6V and the older TD-8 V drum modules and found the TD-9 to be seriously lacking in comparison. My church purchased the unit, along with a Roland V drum kit, and I was excited to be ... read more [+]able to hear what the TD-9 offered. After several worship practices and live performances, I came away very dissapointed. The TD-9 has an "electronic" edgyness that makes it sound unrealistic,harsh and lacking depth. My ears soon grew tired of the TD-9 and longed for lush sounds of the TD-8 and TD-6. The TD-9 also has a considerable lack of "really usable" drumkits, as opposed to the other two modules. I consider myself blessed to have both the TD-6 and TD-8,either one blows the TD-9 away. In my opinion, Roland needs to go back to the drawing board on this module! close [-]

This is a review of the TD-9, not so much the TD-9sx which is the kit. I had a TD-12s before getting a TD-9sx. Why? I sold the TD-12 like a fool and later decided that was a mistake and needed to get ... read more [+]the drums back. I went with the lower priced TD-9SX and really regretted it. The sounds are so unsatisfying to my ears. Though the TD-12 was not what I would consider "real" at least it came close. The TD-9 is not even close. The centerpiece of a drum kit is the snare. The TD-9 snare sounds are crap imho. Maybe your ears will not mind the lack of authenticity of the snare sounds, but I would highly recommend saving up to get the TD-12 or TD-20. I'm hoping they come out with something entirely new in the next couple of years that will take e-drums to the next level, like a TD-3000 or whatever. Then I might consider paying another couple grand for a v-drums set. close [-]
