Is The Roland TD9 Still Worth Buying?

- The TD9 came out in 2008, is it still worth buying?
There are 4 variations of the kits and 2 module versions:
TD9S
TD9SX
(Released in 2008)
TD9K2
TD9KX2
(2011: Updated module and better kick-pad)
I almost bought the TD9-KX2 once, it's a great drumset, I also like the TD9-SX. I wouldn't spend more than $1500 on either one though (no matter how many upgrades it has) above that price I'd buy a TD15KV, a TD25, or possibly a Alesis Strike. I still think the td9 is worth buying, just don't dump your life savings on one, remember it's 10 years old.

Great video. BTW - for learners, the TD-9 is terrific. It is the only module that Roland ever made that has the "scope" function to show how your time is lining up across all the instruments in the kit on each beat, and the partials within a beat.
this video was just what i was looking for after finding a td9 on reverb. very excited to get back into drumming after i had to sell my acoustic kit in '08
thanks for your great content!
Lol i bought the td9 kx2 from a friend for 300 bucks
Was nervous to watch this because i just picked up a td9kx2 myself. But to my surprise i was relieved! I got my set barely used for 800 bucks. Went straight to guitar center and picked up a set of iron cobra double pedals and im loving the kit so far. Glad to know i got such a good deal on this. Ive been looking at getting a kit for the past 6 months and when i came across this one i couldnt pass it up. Like your videos man i just subscribed!
Dude you're the greatest. I knew nothing about V Drums, watched a bunch of your vids, and was able to make an informed purchase. Thanks Justin!
Thanks Greg!
I just bought my first drumset. It's a second hand TD-9 and I couldn't be happier. I spent 1000 € including shipping, bass drum pedal and hi-hat stand. It looks like the TD-9 KX2 but it has a KD-8 with the rubber surface. I was worried it could sound a bit awkward or just not real enough since it's a decade old already, but hell no, after doing all the important settings it feels and sounds so intuitive. The way to an upgrade concerning the model is totally open, the pads are great, the cymbals are still high tier and it looks fantastic (in my opinion). I could spend around 500 € for a TD 17 module or save up to 2 k for a TD 27 upgrade pack and the rest of the kit wouldn't fall behind. But for now I am saving up to a bigger snare pad and a ride. Thanks 65 Drums, you really helped in all those decisions with your ton of vids and knowledge :D
Great video, thank you for helping me making the best choice!
Good info! Thanks for sharing!
Huge help! Thanks very much for the info!
I bought the TD 9SX back in 2008 and have upgraded it beyond the KX2 and have put millions of miles on it. Ive had to replace the cymbals but still use it every day with Superior and it still works perfect! I love it and wouldn't trade it for anything.
I really like the TD-9. I bought a used on off eBay from Japan about 6 mos. ago for about $350 to swap out with my TD-6V (used it for 10 years). Over the years (thanks to eBay) I've upgraded all my drums to mesh heads so now I have 4 PDX-8's for Toms and a PD-125 on a separate stand for my snare. Still have and love the single cymbal hi-hat and have 3 other cymbals. I managed to update the TD-9 to V2 (giving me 50 'extra' drum kits) and all is good in my music room 💖 🇨🇦
I'm new to e drumming I had a td4kp ..upgraded a to a td9 module with mesh pads and cy12s vh11 hats ...love it ..all work great on the kp rack
What I like about older Roland Kits is that you can buy extra hardware at a cheaper price for your newer TD-Sound Modules, although some have mentioned not so cheap on resale. I kept my TD-12 Sound Module which I still love (just sold my TD-10 Kit a couple of months ago & I miss that Sound Module too) even though I have the TD-25 which doesn't have a lot of extra trigger connections, plus I hated when Roland went to that molded connector for the triggers, which is why I held on to my TD-12 Sound Module that uses the standard cable connections. So older used resale of Roland kits are sometimes a cheaper alternative to build your own mini super kit without emptying your bank account. Thanks for your videos Justin.
Great video, thanks so much. Has really helped me out
I have a TD9 and a TD30 both great kits
thanks for your clear explanation.
Thanks for sharing!
Woah way better lighting that just stepped up the video couple notches
Thanks Man! just bought a lighting kit, pretty happy with the results :)
I got a td9 from reverb about 6 months ago. It was version 1. After quite a bit of searching, I found the file and upgrade instructions. Finding the file was hard, but it can be done.
I've had the TD 9sx since it came out on 2008. 10 years on and about 10-15 hours playing on it a week, it's still amazing. The bass drum pad is a little dented and the hi hat can be a bit weird on the odd occasion but, I honestly cant believe how well it has survived.
Yeah, my hi-hat is fucked. I'm gonna see if the $100 Lemon cymbal will hold up better. I have already soldered on a new connector.
Liked all your videos.Really helpful videos to gain knowledge about electronic drums.I m planning to buy one as I live in a appartment and can't use acoustic drum set.Right now i m drumming on practice pads both for snare and kick pedal.For the time being want to buy a kick drum,snare n a tomtom for practice with hi hat.Please recommend some good stuff with in budget.As branded electric drum sets are just too pricy.
i got a td9 kx2 kit in canada used for 1100 bucks and i totally love it, that vh 11 hi hat is sweet.
nice!
Love the channel! I bought a td-9s when they were new. It let me play in close quarters and hd been great! I'm ready to upgrade the pads. Got any suggestions? At some point I may sell this set and upgrade.
Justin you are an absolute diamond. As a beginner i have been looking for a decent kit for my budget. Was all set for an Alesis Surge or similar but with misgivings sbout the overall quality. After watching this I searched used listings and found a TD9sx (branded TD9kv in the UK) with a Roland PM 10 monitor for £650 !!!!. To put that in perspective its £50 cheaper than the Alesos Command is retailing for over here. Im now the proud owner. Great job man thank you. Message to everyone, listen to this guy he knows his what hes talking about.
Just bought a TD9KX2 for 800 CAD on a whim because i wanted to learn. Super happy after watching this vid hahaha.
Hey man, just like to say this video really helped me decide on which Ekit to go for. I managed to pick up a td9k2 for $800 (Aus) plus it came with an extra cy-12c crash. Cheers dude!
Holy crap, that's like under $550 US, that's one helluva deal!
I bought a TD-9SX a little over six years ago in just about mint condition, with pedal, for $1K He had to get rid of it. His wife was pissed that he bought it and he wanted to just unload it. Desperation paid off for me! I love the thing. It's an awesome kit and I haven't even reached it's limits!! I love it. I bought my own amps. I use three, two each for stage and one for monitor.
I just wanted to add that there exist 1.0 versions of the K2 and KX2. I'm not sure when these were released but I bought my TD-9KX in mid-2010. It comes with the KD-8 kick (which isn't all that bad and is more durable than the KD-9), the same snare and toms as the KX2, a CY-12R/C for the ride which is three zone with the bell trigger, and the CY-5/FD-8 combo for the hi hat. I'd highly recommend the VH-11 upgrade if you can find one for a good price (mine was half of retail price and in very good shape), as well as populating the AUX (tom) and CRASH2 ports as soon as you can afford to. My original snare is working well as a floor tom now.
Also don't dismiss the version 1 of the TD-9 drum module if you can find it for cheap, because if you pay shipping to Roland plus about 50 bucks, they will upgrade it to version 2 for you (and ship it back on their dime). The upgrade includes 40-some new kits, 6 user-defined kit slots (vs. a single measly slot in version 1), presets for additional pads such as the CY-12C and CY-13R that I've added to my kit, and the ability to play MP3 files from a USB stick instead of just WAV files on the 1st version. There was a period of time after Roland released the version 2 module that they were selling an upgrade kit for about $80 through music stores that had the version 2 software on a USB stick, that would install the upgrade and then delete the files from the stick as copy protection. Those kits are out of production now but it's about the same price to ship your module to Roland and let them do it anyway.
You missed one important feature about the TD-9 that neither the TD-4, TD-11, TD-15, or even the TD-25 have, and is a MIDI in port with percussion set functionality, which is a really big deal if you plan to add a few more pads or cymbals to your drumset. I got a TD-9 for $185 and an Alesis Trigger IO for 70$, so for 255$ I have a great module with almost 20 inputs.
And for improved sounds, the v-expressions bundles are highly recommended.
Can somebody help me, i used to have a td9 module and it had this feature where you would play to the metronome and if you weren't in time then it wouldn't make any sound
I have tried to google it to find out what this was called as i want to know whether it is available on the td11 modules but i can't find anything to do with it... this was such a good feature and i was expecting it to be more widely covered
Does anyone here know what the feature is and whether the td11 module has it?
Any chance of getting some advice from you? I found a Roland TD9-KX2 and watched this video. Its really helped me alot! The thing is i'm also looking at a Yamaha DTX-532K. Theyre both second hand. I can share the links to the ads with you. Would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for such helpful content!
I am in the process of doing an A to E conversation my current module I am using is a Roland TD6V. I have no intentions to use any of the internal sounds of any module now or in the future I will strictly be using VST's that being said is there any advantage at all to upgrade the module to a TD 9 or TD 11 etc??? I heard maybe the hi hat won't trigger intermediate openings on the TD6V , is this true ?
I'm a big fan of the TD-9 V2 module. It's the module I use now, upgraded from my TD-6V. My original kit was a TD-6KV that I added a CY-12 to. Over the years I got another PD-85 for a floor tom and a couple of PDX-6 pads for toms, a KD-120 I lucked into for only 100 dollars, swapped a PD-8 pad that was used for hi-hats with a CY-5 and the TD-9 V2. This year I just got a PD-105 I'm gonna use for my snare and swap out one of my PDX-6 toms with the PD-85 snare I have now, and I also hope to swap my two CY-8 pads with CY-12s. If I am lucky maybe next year I can get a VH-11 h-hat with a Iron Cobra stand, and than MAYBE a larger MDS-10 rack and use my old PDX-6 pads as rototoms slaved into the older TD-6V drum module I have.

TD 9 V2. Can it get close to this sound?
Its weird, my td9 is different than ALL of the 4 versions you mentioned. for eg my kick drum is mesh.... I have not seen this anywhere, how rare is my set? lol Mine appears to be like td-9sx plus a mesh kick... I love the mesh kick, why did they stop making it?
Just scored a free TD9 today from a buddy!🤘🏼....hopefully still has some life in it!
Hi, I'm a newbie when it comes to roland and I'm looking to get a second hand td9k. As this kit is discontinued, what happens if a pad breaks? Roland all roland pads/modules/equipment etc interchangeable?
Thanks
Considering a TD9 v2 module to use with my DM10 pads.
What do you consider a better drum set? The alesis strike or roland td-25k. They are both in the same price range right about now.
I have a TD-KVX2. I think the kit is great, but am thinking of upgrading. The pads are fine, so I wanted your thoughts on what would be a good module to upgrade too. I was also thinking getting Superior Drummer 3, but I was led to believe that the TD-9 will not support positional sensing with Superior Drummer. Would love to know your thoughts.
I'm of the belief that the TD9-2 is the best budget module out there. Most run used under 300, the MIDI support allows to add plenty of pads via a slave module, there's USB support to play from if you want, and the sounds hold up pretty well.
There's a TD-9S in my city going for 620$. Should I go for it, maybe even negotiate for 550$?
Hi, Justin, I have the two possible deals: td-11k for 550 € or td-9sx for 650€. What do you think is the best deal?
Thanks
What about the TD9 module of 2008 compared to the TD11 module. Do you still think the TD9 module is best? I've been listening to some videos and it seems to me the TD11 module has a better sound quality. What you you think?
I got a TD-9SX plus cy 12 for £600 plus free delivery across the country. Got the kit loved it and never looked back.
That's a really good price
Hello Justin! I’m transforming my acústic drums into a edrum with triggers and drum module to practice at home with less noise:)
I want to ask you to give me information about some deals
i’ve found on the net, please!
1 - I have found a TD9 S (standard kit) for 500$... do you think its a good deal and a good drum module for my project? I’ll keep the eCymbals and Sell the others pads (toms, snare and loco), or not?
2 - are the 2box trigerlt compatible with the roland td9?
I know you prefer the inside triggers but my acustic drum set is a DW collector series and i dont want to drill the shells 😊
Thanks and congratulations for your CZcams channel!
I'm still using my TD-9. I bought it used, basic kit, on eBay for about 50% under retail 15 years ago. I'm a rock god in Rockband 3 now.
Oh, and I replaced the rubber drums with Roland mesh drums and I use a Pintech snare.
just bought a td6v for $330 with all PD9 pads, CY8 x2 cymbols, KD80 kick. Still locating a Hihat ctrol that works. In mexico there is very little in way of choice.
There's a TD9 K2 in my area for $1000 with an extra floor tom. It sounds like a good deal but it's a lot for a starter kit
Hey what your fav mid range roland td module? Im depating between td 9 - td 15
I have the kx2 model with an extra Tom and up graded bass drum that comes with the td20. Bought it brand new when it first came out. I love it! I really like the visual that shows what you are playing along with the metronome. That helped me play solid. I use to always play a little in front of the beat. Now I hear the metronome differently and can dial in my playing.
Would today the td9kx2 still be better than a Alesis Crimson 2se ? And more silent?
Hello Justin I have a opportunity to buy a Roland td8 vdrums do you think that it’s still worth buying? It has a mesh snare and kick drum tower it’s a 5pcs set but more can be added says it’s still a great working kit comes with all cables and a kick pedal..... He’s asking $580 but told me if I come pick up this week he’ll take $450 for everything!!!! I would like to think it’s a good deal but would really like your opinion on this set before I buy my first electronic drum kit!!!!! I’ve search and watched numerous reviews and read lots about it, but still like to know your thoughts about this kit please and thank you!!!!!! Craig.....
I got a TD9 SX plus another pdx 8 and cy8 plus a td3(full kit)for £450. All working so I’m going to sell on the td3 and make half of my money back. Good deal ?
hi! great video :) greetings from small island -- Bali
I want to buy E Drums, and found New-Old-Stock TD9KX2 at a local music store for about US$1100, is it still worthy?
thanks.
Actually, you CAN just go and download a file and upgrade the TD-9. That's what I did. Roland wanted 100 dollars for the upgrade file so a lot of people were pissed and somebody uploaded it online.
Its a minor upgrade with some improved samples mostly for the snares and it doubles the number of kits you can save.
Good luck finding the site thought, that was a long time ago. You can try using waybackmachine, sometimes it will archive these kind of things. I might still have the file, but I'm not sure, I'd have to check my drives.
Yeah that's cool! but it's also kinda illegal :/
Well the biggest upgrade, or better say redemption of original Roland's screw up is the MP3 playability. I was shocked when I plugged my flash drive full of music mp3 to play along and found out it just supports WAV. Of course back then I thought all the module's processing power went in to the drum sounds, but when I found out that simple firmware upgrade enables mp3 capability, which was in the module technically, I was disappointed in Roland.
TD9 is a diamond. It has the scope, MIDI IN and 50 exceptional backing tracks which very disappointingly and suprisingly, the newer ones don’t have!
TD-9 great value, V2.0 upgrade is worth getting if yours is a version 1.0. Buying a used TM-2 /SPD-S and connecting via 5pin midi cable and running audio into the mix in port allows you to trigger user samples and layer sounds to get more mileage out of setup. You will have to do some basic midi editing to connect the devices, plenty of Y.T guides to help anyone who might get stuck.
I have a td4kp and saw a td9s for cheaper should I buy the td9?
Hi Justin would you rather buy a used TD9, a new TD11K, a new Alesis Crimson or a new Yamaha dtx532K? For me it's important the realistic Yamaha Hi-hat and the 3zone snare, but Alesis Crimson "giant pads" also attracts me. I don't really consider Roland for my budget (1000 Euros) because i think a td11K don't really worth it's cost (nearly 950 Euros). Thanks for the Help

Fun fact ,the td 9 was the 1st roland drum module to use the horrible cable snake and the td 4 was the 2nd. The td 9 originally came with 50 drum kits but later on they put out a usb stick upgrade you could buy for 50 bucks that increased the td9 to 99 kits ,you can literally use any usb stick and if you know where to look you can get this upgrade for free.
The td 9 is a pretty nice module but i really hate the cable snake,the cable lengths are too short so you have to buy extension cables if you want to be able to move stuff where you want and if someone steps on a cable at a gig you have to replace the entire cable snake.
I started out with the td9 sk all mesh and added a kd120 kick and vh 11 hi hat later on as well as a cy 15 ride but now i have my acoustic drums converted with triggers and roland 2ply mesh heads so i am only using the td9 module now ,i plan to replace it with either a td 20 or td 30 module cause i want more inputs and no cable snake.
Td 9 is a nice starter kit.
I got a Td-9s drumset for $200. Is that a good price?
I got the TD-9S and a Tama Iron Cobra double kick pedal for just over half a grand. Can't beat that.
Picking up the same kit for $700
Make sure you watch this before you pick it up: czcams.com/video/1e7b4IEGLgQ/video.html
The question is : are those drums TD9 K, KX and KX2 better than a 100-300€ one more recent ?
And I think the answer is yes, old high-end standard instruments are still better than new recent entry level drums like Millenium HD drums
does the td9 hihat work well with superior drummer? are there enough articulations or just open an closed and no in between?
Decent in between. I was impressed and I'm going from a dw collectors series with k/z combination hats
What's the drumkit at 0:15?
Hey, I watched a lot of your videos and need help. I own a TD4 and want to upgrade. I feel like a real upgrade would start at a TD25 or an Alesis Strike Zone. The latter got some bad reviews because of firmware-problems and the sounds though looking great. What is your recommendation for a budget up to 2700? Would you wait for 2018. Is there anything superior coming out next year which would be worth waiting?
Relating to the video in which you recommended the iRig2 for recording covers straight to smartphone... would love to see you do a review on www.roland.com/ca/products/gomixer/ for use with eDrums. Perhaps a comparison between the two? I find it dissappointing that Roland put a guitar and a keyboard icon but no drum icon on this device - after all, don't they know that they HAVE a market of V-Drummers?? From what I read though, it seems like this isn't yet compatible with the latest Galaxy phones and Android support is a bit limited for certain live broadcasting platforms (www.roland.com/ca/support/by_product/gomixer/support_documents/96bcf1cc-972c-44c7-82cc-fb5413f29ccd/)
Hi Justin! What do you think about TD-9 module sound library compared to TD-11? Which module produces more realistic and rich drum sounds in your opinion?
I'd say the TD9 sound a hair better
Thanks! Btw your videos are very helpful, keep it up
Noice vid m8
Got my td9 kx2 for 1200€ (≈1400$) with an extra cymbal, drum throne and travel bag. Best deal in my life
Hey 65 drums I love your vids! I've been thinking about getting a electronic drum set because the drums I have right now are a $100 acoustic which sounds terrible (also has no ride.) I am a beginner and was wondering if you would recommend the Alesis nitro as my first electric drum set? I've heard a lot of good things about it and it seems pretty good for the price.
Hey thanks, glad you like the channel :) The nitro is the best drumset for the price
Pixel Gamer lol I'm a beginner and I'm getting the alesis nitro for Christmas yeah it is the best for the money
Who cares about the td9, everyone's stoked on your new lighting💥
lol, I see that, pretty surprised so many people noticed.
the models are using the same drum module right?
Hi Justin! I'm from Argentina and a need an advice from you. I can buy a used (very good condition) TD9 KV or a new Alesis Crimson II. Wich one would you recomend me? Thank you so much in advance.
I'd get the TD9 if it was me
@@65Drums thank you very much for taking the time to answer me! Best wishes from Argentina
I just bought this kit used - KX2 for $700. seems like a good deal. I did have to get the HH controller from GoEDrum (still got to figure how to get this to work correctly). My question with the TD-9 though is ... is it good idea to reset to factory defaults when buying used? I'm only seeing 10 user kits which seems odd to me - I thought there were like 40 or so. Thanks Justin - keep up the good work!
yes, good deal ;)
maybe you have a "V-Expressions kit" applied on your module !? (looks on the internet : V-Expressions for V-Drum)
what's the name of the kits on your module ?
@@bimbam5245 Thank s for the reply. So, there a lot, so I'll give a few. Kits 1-10, V Tour, Funky, Heavy, NeoFunk, Thrash, Jungle, Breaker, Shorty, Stomp, Unlpug.

@@ttbu29 In 2011 Roland released firmware Version 2 for the td9 module.
(the kx2 module have Version 2 installed)
the v2 has added :
30 new kicks and snares(v2 kits) , increases the internal sound bank from 522-552.
40 new kits , increases from 50-99.
So,
kits 1-40 = v2 kits
kits 41-91= v1/original kits
kits 92-99 = User Kits
v2 has added mp3 playback via a USB (v1 = .WAV playback)
v2 has added updated trigger settings for kd-9, pdx-6, CY-12C, CY-13R
this is ALL what you have with your KX2 ^^
so, it is not a bad idea to do a factory reset,
you can make a backup before if you want to..
@@bimbam5245 Thank you! Great information!
Buying a drum-tec sound upgrade for my TD9, but there is a different download depending on if you have V1 or V2. How can I determine the version of the module just by looking at the module?
The easiest way to tell is by the number of preset kits. The V1 only came with 49 presets, where as the V2 has 89. Also, if you look at the 1st kit, it is called V-Tour Studio in the V1 and V-Tour Second on the V2. You may have to do a factory reset on your module if someone messed with the kits over the years (make sure you backup first if you want to keep the current settings). I bought my TD-9 a few years ago off of Ebay. The version was not listed, but I was able to tell the version from one of the pictures which showed the kit number and name. Both the V1 and V2 manuals are still available for download on the Roland website.
@@ryanbastick3196. Awesome. Thanks!
Hi there, thought it would be easy... But I'm not finding an answer to this question:
Will I be able to use a 3 zone ride with the TD-9?
How many cables will be plugged into that cymbal? 2 or just 1 ?
I'm on the verge of buying a TD-9...
Thanks
I use a cy12 r c 3 zone on mine
2 cables
Why is the used roland kits egregiously over priced? Td 10's that came out in 1997!are 1500 on eBay. What the hell was it new in 97 2000? And as I check eBay i'm seeing td 8's for 1200. That's just insane.
ray magnone check out his video on old flagship e kits he sums it up quite well over there :)
I think td10 was over 4 grand i think. I got the basic version for $750 back in february.
They aren't holding their value, our currency is just inflating that fast.
Actually you CAN upgrade the TD9 module to V2. Just upgraded mine today
Hey Justin, if you get the old td9 module, without the extra kits (v 2.0 upgrade - on the "kx" sets) it does not really matter, because YOU CAN upgrade the module. There is a torrent with files you put in a recently formatted USB memory; you stick it into the module, press some buttons and you're done. Roland used to do the upgrade by the same method after you sent them your module and paid for it. Of course, it is a torrent, but since the thing has been discontinued...
I was wondering if someone would pirate the software and offer it online
Camilo Venegas hey mate, do you know where to down load the upgrade for the td9 v2 now? Thanks
its hard to tell, is he using a ring light?
I just bought a td9 from ebay for 800euros, Im really satisfied tbh
well i think i consider myself luck then, because i found a td-9kx2 for 1000 bucks and after a factory restore it's actually pretty good
sweet :)
Did you get a better camera, or is it different lighting?
wondering the same thing myself tbh
New Lighting setup, a set of Softboxes
Hi Justin. Is the TD-12 still worth picking up?
It's incredibly overrated, but I would buy one for the right price
65 Drums Think you could do a video in the future about it?
No get a td11 or td15 better sounding kits for less money. Even then get the new td17 for the same price
The TD9 V1 *can* be firmware flashed to V2, you just need to find the firmware files. I just did it. :)
Where did you find it?

Easily TD-9KX2
I think the td9 kx2 brain module is superb brain very easy to use , my td20 brain went tits up and I’m using two td9 kx2 brains midi together works well , I think I paid £200 uk each but they did come with the wiring harness and psu so great value ! and plugged into superior drummer sounds as good as anything you’ll probably buy …well that’s my 5 pence worth enjoy ratatatat 😜
I bought one that has niether the kick drum or high hat
I would be careful about buying Version 1 TD-9 modules. As I understand it, they have taken the 2.0 software update off of the Roland website and will upgrade it for you only if you physically send it in and pay $50.
You can find the 2.0 software update on torrent sites, but it is not as easy as it used to be.
I'm in a strange limbo where mine isn't worth selling anymore. I see these go for $300 on craigslist sometimes. With upgraded pedals, a dedicated monitor there's no reason to sell for less than $600 and thats WITHOUT shipping. I'm just keeping it for superior drummer and triggering synths.
My 15 year old TD6KV works perfectly and is still better than some of the newer models.
I actually like the TD6 module better than the TD9
I just bought a second hand td6v. What would you upgrade? Thanks )
Just saw the TD-9 SX new on Zzounds website for $1499. I got the TD-17KVX for $1580. Much better kit !!
I can't belive stores are still selling that kit, it's two generations old now
I can't believe it either. Brand new no less !! When I bought my TD-17KVX from Zzounds a month ago , they did not sell the TD-9SX. I guess Roland has a whole bunch of them in a warehouse somewhere and they are trying to get rid of them. Being that they are really outdated , they should cut the price in half . Yea right. This is Roland we are talking about. They would sell their grandmothers dentures for $2000 if they made the right sound !!
Just bought the SX for 570 dollars :)
Im pretty sure its a downgrade from my previous td12 but its definitely something i can work with
The TD9 is actually the pre-successor to the TD12, TD15, TD25, and TD27
I think he got new lighting
I got a TD-9SX plus a DW 4000 double pedal for 750€ 😂
omg i just got the td-9sx model with just $400
I had the td9 vtour kit
Hey pls lmk wat u think of simmons sd600 all mesh w kicktower. Its 499 on sale 399 rn
What about td3/td4
IMHO skip the TD3. I still own the TD4 and think it sounds solid thru a PA. I found one with 3 rubber pads, a KD8, FD7 and rack for $200. After "updating" it for a few months I bought a TD9 V1, updated it to V2, and just last week found out about Percussion Set in the TD9 & how to use the TD4 to add more pads to my TD9. I am 2 pads away from not being able to get into my room! LOL
The TD4 goes for $135 to $160.....$145 is the most I would pay for just the mod WITH the Power Supply, Cable Snake & Mount.
Hope This Helps!
Is it still worth buying?
If you find if for a really really low price yes
Best is pads. 2021.
