The integrated coaching features will also allow you to evaluate your technique, measure your progress and increase your desire to play.

Authentic gaming sensations, tools to improve
An acoustic drummer should not need to change their playing technique to use an electronic kit. You can use the same playing techniques as on an acoustic drum, without compromise, thanks to a 12-inch diameter snare pad • and a hi-hat pad with natural reactions**, which can even be mounted on a hi-hat stand standard. And thanks to the technology inherited from our high-end TD-50 module, the sounds you trigger faithfully reproduce the characteristics of acoustic sounds, with an identical response speed.
*PDX-12 12-inch snare pad only included in TD-17KV and TD-17KVX kits
**VH-10 hi-hat only included in the TD-17KVX kit
Join your favorite group, without auditioning
Playing an endless drum solo is really fun, but it won't make you a good drummer. However, you can improve greatly by playing with your favorite bands, or by rehearsing the songs you will soon be playing on stage. You can listen to songs broadcast wirelessly from your smartphone using headphones from the TD-17 module. You can even record your playing and listen to it again, to decide what areas need improvement.
*TD-17K-L is not compatible with Bluetooth.
Prepare to perform on stage
When rehearsing, it is important to play with the same sounds that you will use on stage. The TD-17 incorporates a wide selection of modeled and expressive drum sounds inherited from our high-end TD-50 module. This way you can be sure to find the perfect drum sound to prepare for the concert.
