Roland TD3 Electronic Drum ModuleA High-Quality Drum Module with Rhythm Training Exercises
The Roland TD-3 Percussion Sound Module boasts 114 new, high-quality drum and percussion sounds arranged into 32 kits, plus an easy-to-use interface so you can start playing right away. Finding the right drum kit is simple: just use the Phrase Preview function to hear a short demo for each kit. Each kit’s sounds can be enhanced using 15 types of built-in Ambience effects and compression. And with Roland’s enhanced Rhythm Coach onboard, drummers can improve their timing, speed and endurance using several rhythm-training exercises. The back of the module features nine trigger inputs, making it possible to add more pads like Roland’s mesh PD-80R for snare. A stereo Mix input lets you play along with external audio sources, while MIDI In and Out let you connect with sequencers and more.
The Roland TD-3 is one cool module - the sounds are uniformly excellent, the ambience control is very organic, the compressors sound perfect for drums and the coach is just plain fun. It tells you if you rush or drag against the click or it takes you through exercises. One mode speeds up slowly; another drops out every few measures to test your timing. Another exercise steps you through a variety of different patterns to practice against.
