TD-50X Artist Kits 01: Michael Schack Now Available

Michael Schack is one of the world’s leading electronic drummers, known for his electrifying, high-energy solo performances and live collaborations with artists such as Netsky. As a regular consultant and contributor to the V-Drums design and development team, Michael has been very involved with the latest V-Drums, including the TD-50X module and associated kits. He’s also known as one of Roland's main international V-Drums artists, touring the world with his #pushyourdrumming “work show” concept and #DJDrummer solo shows.

With this special TD-50X artist pack, you can load five of Michael’s personal performance kits into your TD-50X module. These ready-to-play kits feature many custom sounds that are not in the standard TD-50X library, including specially designed and layered kick and snare sounds. And thanks to the intuitive internal copy function for individual instruments and sound settings, you can easily copy and paste Michael’s TD-50X sound tricks into your own preferred presets and user kits. Be careful—these sets go louder and deeper than the regular TD-50X preset kits, so you might have to bring down the volume a bit. Enjoy!

TD-50X Artist Kits 01: Michael Schack includes five premium kits crafted by Michael Schack himself. The series is compatible with the TD-50X V-Drums sound module and TD-50 module with the TD-50X Upgrade. Find TD-50X Artist Kits 01: Michael Schack in Roland Cloud Manager under V-Drums in the Hardware section.
