I purchased this module to replace the stock module of the TD-07KX e-drum kit. One positive aspect is that it arrived with the latest firmware version, which was a good thing. Although updating the firmware isn't very complicated, having it pre-installed saved time.
The hardware installation was straightforward. However, it's important to note that compared to the TD-07 module, you will need a balanced TRS cable to connect the CRASH2 to the TRIGGER-IN input. I had to make minimal adjustments to the settings of the various pads/crashes as they were already well-configured by default. I tested it with some kits bought online, and they all work perfectly.
One very useful feature is the ability to load your own soundtracks directly onto an SD card to play along with. Regarding the SD card, it's recommended to use an SD-HC with a maximum of 32 GB of memory, as anything larger won't be formatted correctly.
Initially, I was undecided whether to buy the TD-17 or this one. The TD-17, in addition to having less memory compared to the TD-27, lacks the transient function that was added in one of the latest updates for the other models. I find it absurd that the smaller TD-07, has this feature by default and not the TD-17. Having this function is a game-changer; it significantly improves the sound.
Search on YouTube for the video 'Transients | How To Make Roland Drums Sound Better' for more information.
This module costs more than the TD-17, but it's worth it.
For those who want to upgrade their module, I can only recommend it.

Description
14-Inch Digital Snare
The PD-140DS digital snare pad works with the high-speed processing in the TD-27 module to bring the ultimate expression to your snare work. A three-layer mesh head is fitted to a standard 14-inch shell for natural rebound and feel. The multi-element sensor system tracks your playing across the pad, with head, rimshots, and cross-stick techniques all instantly detected in real time—without needing to change settings in the module.
14-Inch Digital Hi-Hat
With unrivaled touch sensitivity, tonal variation, and open/closed resolution, the VH-14D is simply the best electronic hi-hat available. The 14-inch top/bottom cymbal design mounts on a standard acoustic hi-hat for an authentic look and feel. Playing dynamics, stick techniques, and foot articulations are all captured with perfect detail, thanks to the high-resolution detection system and lightning-fast module processing.
18-Inch Digital Ride Cymbal
The CY-18DR brings limitless tonal colors to your ride playing. From edge to bell, every articulation is detected with ultra-detailed dynamics and response. Techniques from cymbal rolls to soft bell strokes are fully translated, and you can even mute the bow and bell with a gentle finger touch.
Thin Crash Cymbals
The TD-27KV2 comes with thin-profile V-Cymbals from the V-Drums Acoustic Design series, offering more natural movement when played. And just like acoustic cymbals, you can grab the edge to choke the sound and draw out different tones depending on whether you play the bow or the edge.
Authentic Kick Feel—Without the Noise
A nice solid kick drum usually comes with a nice loud noise. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want, but your family or neighbors may not feel the same way. The KD-10 kick pad absorbs much of the noise thanks to its rubber cover combined with a dedicated cushion—but retains that satisfying kick drum “thud” when a beater buries into a bass drum head. And it’s compatible with all standard kick pedals, both single and double.
Wirelessly Stream Songs and Backing Tracks
Push your drumming further by playing along with your favorite bands—including your own. Wirelessly stream songs and backing tracks through the TD-27 module from your smartphone via Bluetooth audio. You can even record your performances—with or without backing—to hear where you need to tighten things up.
Multi-Channel Drum Recording—Using a Single Cable
In the studio, the TD-27 module’s USB audio interface makes computer music production simple, with up to 28 audio channels available through a single cable. MIDI is also supported via USB and dedicated I/O ports, allowing you to sync with other MIDI devices and trigger sounds in computer-based software.
Your Personal Onboard Drum Coach
Coach mode supports your daily practice sessions, complete with progress tracking that makes learning effective and rewarding. Play through warm-ups, develop your sense of groove, tempo, and timing, and even work on your stamina—all with a score that highlights your progress and motivates you to improve.
