Roland Drum Kits

The VAD516 V-Drums Acoustic Design kit is the pinnacle of the V-Drums 5 Series—delivering the immersive look, feel, and stage presence of a full acoustic set and the cutting-edge power of the V51 module. With full-depth wood shells, premium digital pads, and studio-ready connectivity, it’s made for serious players who want traditional aesthetics without sacrificing the flexibility of modern electronic drums. From stage performances and studio recording to creating content at home, the VAD516 offers the expression and detail you expect from an acoustic kit, paired with the control and convenience V-Drums are famous for. 

V51 Module

The V51 is the heart of the V-Drums 5 Series, setting a new benchmark for mid-range electronic drum modules. Powered by the same high-end engine found in the flagship V71, it features premium, multi-layered sampled DW drum kits, onboard tools for practice and performance, and deep expansion possibilities on Roland Cloud. The streamlined interface is designed for speed and creativity, while Bluetooth audio, Wi-Fi, and app integration unlock endless ways to play, practice, and personalize your sound.

The VAD516 pads come with acoustic-like feel and enhanced playability. Inspired by Roland’s flagship pads, it features a newly developed design with a responsive rubber rim that improves stick feel and playing comfort. Under the surface, triple piezo sensors offer accurate triggering and improved dynamics, delivering consistent response across the playing surface while eliminating hot spots. Whether upgrading components or expanding your current kit, the VAD516 brings V-Drums realism, expression, and rock-solid reliability to your setup.

  • Next-generation 12-inch Roland V-Pad with a premium build and acoustic-style aesthetics
  • Ideal as a tom upgrade or expansion pad for V-Drums kits and Roland percussion pads
  • Triple piezo sensor layout eliminates hot spots and provides enhanced dynamic response and even triggering across the head
  • Hard rubber rim and revised hoop design for more natural stick rebound and improved comfort
  • Dual-zone triggering for independent head and rim sounds
  • Tension-adjustable mesh head that lets you dial in the rebound to match your playing style
  • Compatible with a wide range of V-Drums sound modules

Roland

Roland is one of the most influential electronic instrument manufacturers in modern music, and a defining name in electronic drums. The brand is best known for developing electronic drum kits that prioritise feel, responsiveness, and reliability, making them a standard choice for practice, recording, education, and live performance.

Roland electronic drum kits are widely used because of their realistic playing surfaces, expressive sound engines, and durable construction. Their mesh heads and advanced trigger technology allow drummers to play with natural dynamics and technique while keeping volume under control. This makes Roland kits especially popular in home environments, schools, theatres, and professional rehearsal spaces.

Beyond full kits, Roland also produces drum modules, pads, triggers, and hybrid solutions that integrate electronic sounds into acoustic setups. With a long history of innovation in synthesis and digital instruments, Roland continues to set the benchmark for electronic drumming, trusted by beginners and professionals alike.

Drum Kits

Drum kits are the core of modern drumming, bringing together bass drum, snare, toms, cymbals, and hardware into a single playable instrument. A complete kit allows a drummer to cover rhythm, dynamics, and texture, forming the foundation of a band’s groove in styles ranging from rock and pop to jazz, metal, funk, and electronic-influenced music.

Drum kits come in many configurations and materials, including compact setups for small spaces, standard five-piece kits, and larger multi-tom arrangements. Shell materials such as maple, birch, mahogany, and hybrid constructions each influence tone, projection, and response. Acoustic kits are chosen for their natural feel and sound, while electronic and hybrid kits offer volume control, sound flexibility, and integration with modern music production.

Choosing a drum kit involves balancing sound, size, hardware quality, and playing style. Whether for practice, recording, or live performance, a well-matched drum kit provides consistent tuning, comfortable ergonomics, and a musical response that supports the drummer and the music they play.

Drum Kit

A drum kit brings together multiple drums and cymbals to create a single playable instrument that drives rhythm and structure in music. Each part of the kit works together to provide pulse, dynamics, accents, and movement, allowing the drummer to shape groove, timing, and energy. A well-matched drum kit supports consistent playing, clear musical expression, and the ability to adapt to different styles and performance settings.

Electronic

Electronic in a drumming context refers to instruments and equipment that generate or trigger sounds digitally rather than acoustically. This includes electronic drum kits, drum modules, pads, triggers, and hybrid setups that combine electronic sounds with acoustic drums. Electronic gear allows for volume control, sound variety, recording integration, and flexible performance options, making it especially useful for practice, home studios, live shows, and modern music production.

Electronic Drum Kit

An electronic drum kit uses digital sound modules and trigger pads to recreate drum and percussion sounds while allowing full volume control and sound flexibility. Electronic kits are widely used for home practice, education, recording, and live performance, offering features such as headphone use, built-in effects, and connectivity with computers and music software. They provide a practical alternative to acoustic drums, especially where space, noise levels, and versatility are important.
