Recently I picked up a TD-50K from my local Music Go Round on a good deal. Does it still hold up in 2021? There's not a whole lot of upgrade when it comes to the newer Roland TD-50X module, so if you can find a used kit, it might just be worth it.

In this video I give my thoughts on both modules and kits along with demos of the TD-50 module. Use the chapters to navigate around to hear all the sounds; it's quite a long section.
