roland td 20 lcd display price
Roland td12 td20x replacement screen vdrums td20 LCD. Up for sale roland td12 td20x replacement screen i was told it would fit td20 as well brand new never used.
Each OLED includes instructions, spare LCD ribbon cable, and spacers needed to mount the new OLED and for the power unit. All the OLED"s have been tested and work great.
In their defense, all I had told them wasn"t working was the LCD and I said the backlight was working. I just had a really bad feeling about it anyway. I hadn"t tried to get sound out of the drums (don"t have my new kit yet, just have my cymbals from before I moved so I had to test the TD-20 with my CY-14c). Thanks though, I"ll probably take it into the local Roland certified shop today in Boise, fingers crossed. I"ll let you guys know what was wrong with it when they diagnose it, they have a week lead time before they"ll get to it at this shop.
We offer a ONE YEAR money back guarantee against manufacturing faults and defects, but only when the display has been professionally installed. A claim will only be valid when supported by an invoice or receipt of professional installation from a suitably qualified electronic engineering specialist. If in doubt, please ask us before installation.
A very pricey, but necessary item if your td12/20 display is no longer readable. In the Netherlands a good used TD12 now sells for 400 and a good td20 for 500 and the x for 600 euro. Since I paid 350 euro plus for the display it is still cheaper than a replacement, The display itself is great, looks similar like my TD30 display. Overall a good buy, but it would have been nice of the cost would be cheaper for these old types modules.
1 Tip: In the installation manual it´s recommended to use 2 white washers to space bracket away from the bezel (cover window), But then the my screws were to short to get into the thread. I didn´t use the washers then, and it worked out too without crashing the display into the window cover. Just don´t tighten those 2 screws too much...
With the arrival and testing of the modules, REVERSE ENGINEERING was started, that is, the whole process took several months, between reading the protocol and analyzing how it forms the screen. Once this protocol was completed, research began to solve the speed problem. Because in addition to having the speed of Roland’s protocol, it would still have the protocol and display speed that replaces it. To solve this timing and protocols fight we have a microcontroller in the middle of the road that does all the heavy lifting.
We tested it on 3 models and it proved to be 100% compatible with the original Display protocol. Of course, as it is not original, we have a processing time to convert Roland’s protocol to a new graphic display, so depending on the function it may sometimes present a small latency or delay, but this does not compromise or affect its operation.
As Roland’s original Display is 5V, we opted for a 3V3 Display. In other words, we have an excellent resistive isolation between the module board and the board of our new DisplayTD-120.
With this isolation from the voltage conversion, we work 100% isolated from the Roland processor. And we can be sure that if any electronic problem happens, the probability of it being our Display is extremely low.
As a loyal V-drumtips follower, you might have noticed that I still have a Roland TD-9 module in all videos. I could never find a good reason to upgrade my module, until recently. I saw one of these offers at a buy and sell platform here in Ireland that seemed too good to be true. A second hand Roland TD-20 drum set in really good condition and with many accessories for only 1750€. These kind of offers is usually published by scammers, since such a price is way too low for this drum kit.
A standard Roland TD-20 has still a value of 2500-3000€, without any extras. However, I made an offer and got this kit delivered to my home. The person who was selling it was really friendly and everything else than a scammer. He treated the kit very good and even gave me a box of cables.
The mesh heads were a bit dirty and the cymbals cried for some Dr.Kredo. But no problem, I am the king of cleaning mesh heads. The only piece, that was missing, is the original VH-12 hi-hat rotation clamp. Everything else was original. Another little flaw is the well known “TD-20 LCD Screen issue”. It is not disturbing me enough to buy a replacement screen for 80€. I guess the kit is 6-8 years old.
I soon figured out that I do not need the speaker monitor and managed to sell it together with the 2 CY-8 pads immediately for 200€, which decreases my spendings for the TD-20 to 1550€, for such this awesome high end kit. Unbelievable!
The TD-20 itself is great, the VH-12 hi-hat is more realistic than the VH-11, through to its pressure sensor and the big CY-14 Crashes give it an awesome look. I also love the rack that allows you to hide the cables by leading them through.
The module itself is much better than the TD-9, even though I was saying that there is no need to upgrade. I am fully aware that this might have been a luxury upgrade, but this module is just so much better than the mid-level TD-9. It has more adjustment options for triggers, Positional Sensing and really important, a volume adjustment for “Mix In” Audio. This way I could get rid of the mixing desk from my original setup. I also know that no one needs 5 crash cymbals, but an enormous amount of trigger inputs has been just great and I would not want to go back to a “limited inputs module”.
Within the last 3 months, I sold almost all components that I did not need, partly from my old setup and also from the TD-20. This way I did make the entire amount of money I’ve spend back. Every single cent!
TD-20 even lets drummers add realistic snare drum “buzz” (the resonance created on the tom and bass drum) that matches the type of snare drum selected. It’s the subtle nuances like these that really make the difference during performance and recording.
Whether used live or in the studio, the TD-20 offers a host of powerful features designed to make life easy. Eight group faders are provided for adjusting the relative levels of each part (snare, kick, hi-hat, etc.), while 15 individual compressors and EQs let you sculpt each sound to perfection. The TD-20 also includes a
New to the TD-20 is a CompactFlash slot, which can be used for storing custom drum kits and sequencer patterns with optional memory cards. An expansion bay located on the underside means
there’s room for upgrades down the road. The TD-20 also features Roland’s V-LINK technology. Using an optional video editor from Edirol, drummers can trigger images or change cameras from the pads or kick.
This is to help address the question I come across about once a week. The TD-20 LCD screen. Right now in 2019 and dating back to sometime in 2018 Roland does not have replacement LCD"s to fix an issue that affected some TD-20 modules. The issue seems to be that some pixels fade or die over time making the screen unreadable or hard to read over time. I have come across this issue a few times myself on trades. Its to the point to where I ask if this is an issue with a prospective trade and I am hesitant to take them on trade if there is any doubt. There are not many online solutions for this that I or my service person have come across. Roland does not have the part available and can"t get more from the vendor. We are not sure if the vendor just stopped making the item or Roland decided to stop ordering the part. If anyone knows of a solution or any more info please post it here or message us. Roland TD-30 and TD-50 modules are not effected as they started using newer easier to read and reliable screens in 2012-2013.
