The Roland VAD516 is a flagship V-Drums 5 Series electronic drum set with an acoustic design. It is built to give the look, feel and stage presence of a full acoustic kit. The kit uses full-depth wood shells and double-braced hardware.
The V51 sound module holds 70 ready-to-play kits, 130 user setups and over 1,000 drum and percussion sounds. The 14" PD-14DSX digital snare detects hand position and supports cross-stick playing. The 20" KD-20-MS kick drum has a full-size wood shell for acoustic-style depth and presence.
The PDA toms have dual-ply mesh heads with adjustable tension and realistic rebound. For connections, the kit offers USB-C multichannel audio and MIDI, Bluetooth audio streaming and Roland Cloud integration.
