Flagship V-Drums Acoustic Design Kit with the Expandable V71 Module and Advanced Pads
The V-Drums 7 Series opens a dynamic new chapter in the V-Drums legacy, elevating the world’s leading electronic drums with a reimagined sound module, next-generation pads, and enhanced creative tools. Our latest flagship platform gives you two ways to play: a core onboard sound library created in collaboration with Drum Workshop (DW) and DW Soundworks software for computer-based drumming. And with built-in wireless connectivity and Roland Cloud Connect on your smartphone, you can instantly change up your sound with a growing library of V-Drums Instrument Expansions, Kit Packs, and more.
The VAD716 brings V-Drums 7 Series expressive power to a flagship V-Drums Acoustic Design kit. The PD-14DSX takes our digital snare technology to the next level with even more detailed sensing, a snare throw-off lever, and a snare tension knob. The KD-22 offers authentic looks and playability with a full-depth wood shell and an innovative drumhead-mounted sensor. This six-piece kit also features two rack toms, two floor toms, our acclaimed digital hi-hat and ride, and two 16-inch V-Cymbals. Five shell pack colors are available, including a new Satin Walnut finish option.
