to me it sounds like a decent sound but no depth. Its like the toms and snare play the same sound no matter what velocity you hit the drum. Its like the same exact sound just louder or softer.
it's because they use like under 4 layers, and they use DSP to manipulate the sound real time, instead of round robin and things like this, so the overall result, not natural sound, lack of richness, clarity on the overall kits.
which would explain rolands ability to get super fast triggering and no load times. They are barely pushing any actual information. Lets see them apply their technology to something like the strike. I bet that latency number jumps few notches.
The latency things is PR, real latency behind acoustic drum is about 5ms, their latency is 3ms on td-30\td-50\td11\15\17 more faster machine gun in headphone, it is impossible to see any difference for human been, most vst are running 7ms to 10 ms with module that you saw on youtube. Yamaha dtx 502 latency is 12ms, go try it in a store, and you will barely see any difference switching to td-30 at 3ms.. They said on Roland event, the reason they never let imports one sound sample in the time of td-11\15 because latency would increase, yes only one shots sample, it took td-50\td-17 to imports sample, at 3ms.
