About Roland VAD716

Enhance your drumming experience with the Roland VAD716 V-Drums Acoustic Design Electronic Drum Kit in Pearl White, a top-tier choice for professional drummers seeking unparalleled realism and versatility. At the heart of this advanced kit is the V71 V-Drums Sound Module, a revolutionary component in the V-Drums 7 Series. This module boasts an all-new multi-sampled onboard sound library, developed in collaboration with Drum Workshop (DW), and offers enhanced workflow features. With built-in wireless connectivity, you can expand your sound palette effortlessly via the Roland Cloud Connect mobile app, accessing a growing library of V-Drums Instrument Expansions and Kit Packs.

The V71 module is a powerhouse of creativity, featuring ultra-powerful DSP and expanded waveform memory that deliver a universe of expressive possibilities. Its vivid color display, tactile controls, and ergonomic panel layout ensure smooth and fast preset changes, sound edits, and mix adjustments. The module's premium sounds are crafted from a hand-picked selection of the world's finest drum sets, recorded and mixed at 32-bit/192 kHz resolution in professional studios worldwide, including direct collaboration with DW in Oxnard, California.

Experience unrivaled expression with the V71's multi-layer sample playback and round-robin randomization, eliminating the "machine-gun" effect for natural sound. Roland's proprietary behavior modeling enhances every articulation, offering over 16,000 variations in dynamic response with digital pads. For the first time, you can freely change up the sound set with the Roland Cloud Connect app, downloading new sounds directly to the module.

Included with the V71 module is a six-month Roland Cloud Ultimate membership, granting access to V-Drums Instrument Expansions, Kit Packs, DW Soundworks, and more. Dive deeper into sound customization with enhanced V-Edit tools, allowing you to adjust drum and cymbal parameters like head types, damping, tuning, and more. The module's studio-grade processing tools, driven by a powerful DSP engine, enable detailed sound shaping with EQs, transient processors, and convolution-based ambience tools.

The V71 Editor, available as a free download on Roland Cloud, extends your editing workflow with a large computer screen and mouse control, seamlessly integrating with the onboard V-Edit tools. Customize your sound palette with the module's sample import function, supporting internal sounds and external samples across three layers per pad assignment.

The V71 module offers professional connectivity with balanced outputs, high-speed trigger inputs, and a stereo mix input. Its integrated USB audio/MIDI interface supports multi-channel audio and MIDI over USB, allowing communication with DW Soundworks, the V71 Editor, and other music software.

Complementing the V71 module is the PD-14DSX Digital Snare Pad, featuring advanced sensors and a traditional throw-off lever for a natural playing experience. The VH-14D Hi-Hat and CY-16R-T Cymbal Pad further elevate your drumming with advanced multi-sensor triggering and organic motion. The CY-18DR Cymbal Ride completes the kit, offering the ultimate in expressive drumming with its innovative digital trigger technology.

The Roland VAD716 V-Drums Acoustic Design Electronic Drum Kit in Pearl White is a testament to Roland's commitment to revolutionizing electronic drumming, providing drummers with an authentic, expressive, and versatile playing experience.
