Roland VAD316 V-Drum Kit Home Set

New Sound Engine From the Flagship

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

Sound Expansion

Connect wirelessly to the Roland Cloud to load more layered sample instruments onto your V31 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 conveniently via the V-Drums app or dive deeper into sound editing with the V-Drums Editor on your computer.

Two Ways to Play

The V31 combines hardware comfort with software flexibility. Expand your kit with new packs or use DW Soundworks VST and MIDI for identical premium sounds on the module and your laptop.

Includes classics like Time Check and 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 shine with chrome hoops and reduced hot spots, the PD-8H and PD-10H focus on a robust, elegant design. All kits also come with larger floor toms for a more natural playing feel.

Standard V-Pad Series

Durable plastic hoops with a rubber-inset rim and a sleek black finish ensure a premium, reliable playing feel in 10" and 8" sizes.

Full-Size Kick, Natural Feel, Professional Performance

The KD-18-MS is a premium 18" kick drum with a full-size wooden shell for an authentic V-Drums Acoustic Design feel. Its enlarged playing surface allows for double-pedal use and is extremely robust.

The new sensor on a standard head provides a natural response, while modern Roland trigger technology transmits every hit with the highest precision.

Hi-Hat Machine

With a sturdy steel base plate and double-braced legs, this hi-hat machine stands rock solid while the two large spikes ensure a slip-free setup. The three legs with rubber feet rotate for easy integration into any drum setup (including double-pedal configurations). The double chain drive operates silently and can be adjusted smoothly via a grippy adjustment wheel. In addition to the memo-lock, the clutch and tilt adjuster for the hi-hat cymbals are professional-grade. The low-mass tilting mechanism for the bottom cymbal uses three rubber pads to minimize contact with the cymbal and let the hi-hats’ full sonic potential come through.

Bass Drum Pedal

This double-chain-drive pedal guarantees an even, powerful beat with optimal playing comfort. Extremely high-quality construction ensures long life even under heavy use. With versatile adjustment options, the XDrum pedal can be tailored to any player and personal playing style. Spring tension and beater extension are easy to fine-tune for the perfect feel.

Drum Throne

The throne features a round, leather-look seat and rests on three non-slip rubber feet. It adjusts conveniently 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 withstand heavy use and provide uncompromising stability.

Snare Drum Stand

The XDrum Snare Stand Stage is ideal for beginner drummers. It offers top-level workmanship and professional features that are rare at this price. A grippy knurled nut lets you adjust the basket 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 promote optimal shell resonance. A fine, sturdy ratchet joint allows accurate tilt adjustment of the snare drum.

Comfortable Stereo Headphones

The KDJ-1000 delivers a full, balanced sound with solid bass and clear highs. It offers plenty of volume while maintaining precise stereo imaging. Thanks to the low impedance, the KDJ-1000 can reach extreme volume levels even from weak sources. The softly padded, wide headband is length-adjustable. The entire headset folds for compact storage. For mixing work, the ear cups rotate 180° to allow classic single-ear monitoring. The thick, soft padding of the circumaural cups also provides good external noise isolation.

Sticks

The XDrum sticks offer comfortable playability and excellent tonal properties at an incredible price. Their grippy surface prevents annoying slipping, while the extra-hard wood ensures long life.
