  • Our take on the Roland VAD516 Electronic Drum Kit

    The Roland VAD516 is a mid-range electronic kit built on full-size acoustic-style shells in Metallic Sparkle. It runs the V51 module, which shares its sound engine with Roland's flagship V71, and adds the PD-14DSX snare with a lower-profile rim and a working snare throw-off. The kick pad has a wider striking area for double pedals. It sits between the VAD507 it replaces and the top VAD716, giving flagship-grade sounds and feel without the flagship shell set.

    About the Roland VAD516 Electronic Drum Kit

    The Roland VAD516 is a mid-range electronic drum kit that succeeds the VAD507. It uses the V51 sound module, which shares its sound engine and many functions with the V71 module.

    The kit has a PD-14DSX snare with a lower-profile rim and a snare throw-off. The kick drum has a larger striking area, which suits double pedal use. The toms and cymbals keep the Metallic Sparkle finish.

    Questions and answers

    Is the VAD516 worth it over the VAD507?
    The V51 module, the PD-14DSX snare and the wider kick pad are the main gains. If you already own a VAD507, the jump is mostly in module sounds and snare feel.
    How does the V51 module compare with the V71?
    Roland says the V51 shares the sound engine and many functions with the V71. The V71 adds more I/O and flagship features, but core drum sounds are the same family.
    Does the snare throw-off actually work?
    The PD-14DSX has an effective snare throw-off, so you can switch the snare sound on and off like an acoustic drum.
    Can I use a double kick pedal on it?
    Yes. The kick drum has a larger striking area designed for double pedal use.
    What is included in the kit?
    The V51 module, PD-14DSX snare, PDA100-MS tom, plus the remaining toms, cymbals, hi-hat, kick and rack hardware that make up the full VAD516 set.
    Is it good for quiet practice?
    Yes. It is an electronic kit, so you can play through headphones at low volume, though the mesh heads and shells still make some acoustic noise.
    Where is the Roland VAD516 Electronic Drum Kit cheapest?
    At Edrumcenter, for $5,899.99, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the Roland VAD516 Electronic Drum Kit?
