Roland VAD316 V-Drum Kit Live Set

New Sound Engine From the Flagship 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 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 high-quality sounds on both the module and your laptop.

New Coach

More than just 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 improve playability and refresh the V-Drums look. While the premium PD-10P and PD-12P models impress with chrome hoops and reduced hotspots, the PD-8H and PD-10H feature 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 inset rubber rim and a sleek black finish deliver 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 playing feel. Its enlarged playing surface supports the use of double pedals and is extremely durable.

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

Active Monitor Speaker

The KAM-12 not only delivers the familiar brilliant sound — the modern version even includes a Bluetooth receiver. The speaker can be used upright, lying on its side or mounted on a stand, and many of these active monitors can be linked together. All controls and connectors are conveniently accessible from the front — a musician's delight. The integrated 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 provide a clear, undistorted monitor signal even for an acoustic drum kit. Use the 3-band EQ to tailor the sound to your taste.

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 stance. The three legs with rubber feet can rotate to allow seamless integration into any drum setup (including double-pedal rigs). The double chain drive runs completely silently and its tension is infinitely adjustable via a grippy thumbwheel. In addition to the memo-lock, the clutch and tilt adjuster are built to pro standards. The low-mass tilting mechanism for the bottom cymbal uses three rubber pads to minimize contact and let the hi-hats reveal their full sonic potential.

Bass Drum Pedal

This double-chain pedal guarantees a consistent, powerful beat with optimal playing comfort. Extremely high-quality construction ensures long life even under years of heavy use. Thanks to versatile adjustment options, the XDrum pedal adapts to every player and individual playing style. The tension of the individual springs and the beater reach can be adjusted precisely for the perfect feel.

Drum Throne

The throne features a round leather-look seat and stands on three non-slip rubber feet. It adjusts height via a robust precision spindle. With a removable seat top and foldable legs, this seat is quick and easy to transport. Thanks to its double-braced legs it meets tough demands and provides uncompromisingly stable support.

Snare Drum Stand

The XDrum Snare Stand Stage is perfect for drumming beginners. It offers excellent build quality and pro features you rarely find at this price. A grippy knurled nut lets you adjust the basket for drums from 12" to 14", making the stand suitable for side and piccolo snares as well as toms. The support pads are slightly raised to minimize contact with the hoop and ensure ideal shell vibration. A fine, sturdy ratchet joint lets you angle the snare perfectly.

Comfortable Stereo Headphones

The KDJ-1000 delivers full, balanced sound with rich bass and clear highs. It offers plenty of headroom while maintaining precise stereo imaging. Thanks to the low impedance, the KDJ-1000 can drive extreme volume levels from weak sources. The softly padded, wide headband is length-adjustable. The headphones fold for compact storage. For mixing duties the ear cups swivel 180° for classic single-ear monitoring. Thick, soft padding on the circumaural cups also provides good external noise isolation.

Drum Method Book

The "Beginner" method from drumfreaks.de, in the Kirstein edition, covers the essential basics of drumming. It starts with the correct stick grip and progresses to your first real grooves. Extensive videos accompany you on the path to becoming a drummer.

Drumsticks

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

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 individual replacement if needed. High-quality shielding protects against interference over long runs and eliminates the footstep noise common in cheaper cables.
