The third product on our list is the Roland TD-1K.

components are attached to a drum rack that folds easily when you're done playing.
Along with the drums, you’ll get Roland's TD-1 drum module which gives you different sound
options. The cymbal pads are dual-toned which gives them a greater accuracy.
They produce different sounds depending on where you hit them.
You can create the choke effect as well, which is great for songs with a staccato feel.
There's a small knob on top which lets you tighten or loosen the pad itself.
The hi-hat pedal is separate from the main setup so you can place it wherever is comfortable.
If you press on the front of the pedal it makes the classic hi-hat effect. Pressing on the heel
gives you a hi-hat splash effect which is a great feature for an accurate drum sound.
