The VAD716 is Roland's flagship acoustic-style electronic kit: full-size shells with mesh heads, a 14-inch digital snare, 14-inch digital hi-hats and a V71 module built on sounds developed with Drum Workshop. It is aimed at drummers who want acoustic feel and stage presence without miking a kit, and at studios that need silent tracking. Against the TD-50 series it adds a bigger, more realistic playing surface and the newer V71 engine; against acoustic drums it trades raw volume and air for volume control, deep editing and USB multitrack recording. Owners describe the presets as usable straight out of the box and the tone as huge.

Owners rate the kit highly for its out-of-the-box presets, big tone and responsive pads. Most praise comes from players using it live and in the studio who want acoustic feel without mics.
The Roland VAD716 is a six-piece V-Drums electronic kit built in an acoustic design. It has six mesh-head pads, including a 14" digital snare, 12" toms and 14" hi-hats, and the pads are made to give a natural feel and rebound.
The snare and tom pads are tension-adjustable, so the feel can be customized. The V71 sound module holds a multi-sampled sound library created with Drum Workshop.
The kit sends 32 channels of uncompressed audio over USB for latency-free recording. Built-in wireless connectivity handles software updates and content downloads.
