Roland TD-516 V-Drum Kit Live Set

New Sound Engine from the Top Model

The V31 module uses the same completely new sound engine and DW audio samples from the V-Drums 7 series for identical sound and expression.

Sound Expansion

Connect wirelessly to the Roland Cloud to load more layered sample instruments onto your V51 module, including kicks, snares, toms, cymbals and complete kits.

Control and Management via Apps

Use Roland Cloud Connect to add sounds and manage your collection from your smartphone. Discover new kits easily via the V-Drums app or dive deeper into sound editing with the V-Drums Editor on your computer.

Two Ways to Play

The V51 combines hardware comfort with software flexibility. Expand your kit with new packs or use DW Soundworks VST and MIDI for identical high-quality sounds on the module and your laptop.

New Coach

More than a metronome—an integrated toolbox for timing, control, speed and musicality. No extra equipment required.

Includes classics like Time Check or Quiet Count and new tools:
Phrase Trainer: Sets loops for rhythmic practice
Stroke Monitor: Records your stick hits
Blast Beat Trainer: Builds speed and endurance

New Pads, New Configurations

Two new pad series deliver improved playability and a fresh V-Drums look. While the premium PD-10P and PD-12P models impress with chrome-plated hoops and reduced hot spots, the PD-8H and PD-10H offer a robust, refined design. All kits now feature larger floor toms for a more natural playing feel.

Premium V-Pad Series

Chrome die-cast hoops with inset rubber rims and a new shell design create a fresh look and reduced hot spots in the 12" and 10" sizes.

Active Monitor

The KAM-12 not only delivers the familiar brilliant sound; the modern version even features a Bluetooth receiver. The speaker can be used standing, lying down or mounted on a stand, and multiple active boxes can be linked. All controls and connections are conveniently accessible from the front—musicians will appreciate that. The built-in amplifier powers the 12" speaker and the 3" tweeter with a total of 120 watts. That's enough for a maximum sound pressure level of a solid 120 dB SPL—plenty of power to deliver a clear, undistorted monitor signal even for an acoustic drum kit. The 3-band equalizer lets you fine-tune the sound to your taste.

Hi-Hat Stand

Thanks to the sturdy steel baseplate and double-braced legs, this hi-hat stand sits rock-solid while the two large spikes ensure non-slip footing. The three legs with rubber feet rotate to allow easy integration into any drum setup (including double bass pedals). The double chain drive operates silently and the tension can be infinitely adjusted via a grippy knob. Alongside the memo-lock, the clutch and tilt adjuster for the hi-hat cymbals are professional-grade. The low-mass tilter for the bottom cymbal uses three rubber pads to minimize contact and bring out the hi-hats' full sonic potential.

Bass Drum Pedal

This bass drum pedal with double chain drive guarantees a consistent, powerful beat with optimal playing comfort. Exceptionally high-quality construction ensures long service life even under years of heavy use. With versatile adjustment options the XDrum pedal adapts to any player and individual playing style. Spring tension and beater throw can be fine-tuned for ideal response.

Drum Throne

The throne features a round, leather-look seat and stands on three non-slip rubber feet. It adjusts in height via a robust precision spindle. With a removable seat top and foldable legs this seat is quick and easy to transport. Its double-braced legs also withstand heavy demands and provide uncompromisingly stable support.

Snare Drum Stand

The XDrum Snare Stand Stage is ideal for drumming beginners. It offers top-notch build quality and professional features rarely found at this price. Using a grippy knurled nut, the basket adjusts for drums from 12" to 14", making it suitable for side and piccolo snares as well as toms. The support surfaces are slightly raised to minimize contact with the hoop and allow optimal drum vibration. A fine, stable ratchet joint lets you set the snare's angle precisely.

Comfortable Stereo Headphones

The KDJ-1000 delivers full, balanced sound with rich bass and clear highs. It offers plenty of volume while maintaining clean, precise stereo imaging. Thanks to the low impedance the KDJ-1000 can reach extreme volume levels even from sources with low output. The soft-padded, wide headband is adjustable in length. The headphones fold flat for space-saving storage. For mixing work the ear cups can rotate 180° to allow classic single-ear monitoring. The thick, soft padding on the circumaural cups also provides good external noise isolation.

Instruction

The "Beginner" course from drumfreaks.de, in the Kirstein edition, covers the essential foundations of drumming. It starts with correct stick grip and leads up to the first solid grooves. Detailed videos guide you step-by-step on your way to becoming a drummer.

Sticks

XDrum sticks provide comfortable playability and excellent tonal characteristics at an incredible price. The grippy surface prevents annoying slipping while the extra-hard wood ensures long durability.

Instrument Cable

Pronomic instrument cables are ideal for guitarists, bassists and keyboard players. The flexible cables feature screw-on metal jack plugs that allow access to the solder joints or can be replaced individually if needed. High-quality shielding protects the cables from interference over long runs and prevents the footstep noise commonly found in cheaper cables.
