The Engineer One expansion pack is the first of three exciting new expansions for the TD-20 TDW Expanded drum module. The Engineer One expansion pack is a collection of over 40 brand new simulated drum kits modeled to reflect plug n’ play ready produced mainstream pop, rock, alternative, jazz, metal and country kits. What you will find in this new expansion pack are kits modeled to reflect famous and highly sought after recorded setups.
This expansion pack is a collection of kits that can be used in both live and recording situations by hobbyists, weekend warriors and professionals alike. Professional gigging and recording v-drummers can expand their library of custom kits to accommodate many musical genres, eras and types of drums. This expansion is fully customizable allowing the user to continue adjusting the kits, triggers and calibrations to best match his or her playing style.
The Engineer One is based on common recordings, tunings and production techniques found in today’s music. This expansion has been designed to achieve maximum flexibility in multiple situations and environments. The design of this expansion pack allows v-drummers full access to ambience and effects with complete output control in live and studio environments. The accompanying mini-tutorials will guide and help v-drummer choose the best setup, on-board effects and production choices for their needs.
Although ambience and general reverb effects have been added to all kits to produce a “produced” sound, these settings can easily be turned off and/or adjusted up or down by the drummer if a different tonal environment is desired.
These kits are NOT meant to sound like raw acoustic kits, but are engineered to simulate what the raw kit would sound like in the studio, produced and in today’s recordings. This design results in kits ready for plug n’ play mixing, jamming, recording and live performance.

Important note: Remember to change the module's pad settings to MATCH YOUR PADS. By doing so, the correct volumes and pad response will take affect for your module and setup.
Hint: Your setup does not have to match ours! If you have a different set up than default, you can easily move instruments around within each kit. This is accomplished by using the "COPY" feature in your module.
