A premium and exquisitely finished 5-piece (VAD506) and 4-piece (VAD503) shell pack featuring full-diameter, full-depth acoustic toms, and a kick drum.

An Immersive Acoustic Drumming Experience

With the impressive looks, familiar layout, and inspiring playability of a high-end acoustic kit, the VAD507 makes any drummer feel instantly at home. There is a 14-inch stainless steel snare, plus 10-inch and 12-inch rack toms, a 14-inch floor tom, and a 20-inch kick constructed with full-depth wood shells, adding to the authenticity and providing a genuine acoustic feel under the sticks and beater. A full complement of cymbals includes a 12-inch V-Hi-Hat, 14-inch and 16-inch crashes, both with thin profiles and textured finishes, and an 18-inch ride for superior playability and a natural appearance on stage.

Digital Snare, Ride, and Hi-Hat

Roland’s groundbreaking digital pad technology is a major leap forward in electronic drumming, putting unmatched depth and dimension under your sticks. Precision multi-sensors in the snare, ride, and hi-hat pads work in harmony with the TD-27 module to capture every nuance with incredible definition and detail. Lightning-fast detection lets you play all your natural acoustic techniques, such as muting the ride with a finger touch or switching seamlessly between head, rimshot, and cross-stick playing on the snare. And the VH-14D takes the electronic hi-hat to new heights with unparalleled touch sensitivity, tonal variation, and open/closed resolution.

The Natural Feel of Acoustic Drums

Roland’s legendary multi-ply, tension-adjustable mesh heads contribute significantly to the authentic playing feel, giving you a stick rebound that is customizable for your playing style. And when you bury the beater into the specially designed kick drum, you physically move air inside the shell, creating air pressure and resistance that feel remarkably like playing an acoustic kick.

Go Deeper with Prismatic Sound Modeling

Derived from the flagship TD-50X, the TD-27 sound module is filled with drums that live and breathe like acoustic instruments. Roland starts by sampling the finest drums, percussion, and cymbals, both vintage and modern, in world-class recording studios. Roland’s unique Prismatic Sound Modeling is then applied to the samples, bringing them alive with proprietary behavior modeling refined over two decades.

TD-27 Module - More Sounds, More Power

The updated TD-27 module features seventy-five preset kits, including ten all-new kits and newly enhanced versions of the three most popular kits from the original release. New pre-loaded samples are available for combining with preset kits or your own custom setups. Layering features have been expanded, while parallel compression options and transient shaping enhancements provide even greater sound control. The module interface has also been improved for faster sound creation.

Double-Braced Chrome Drum Stands

The VAD507 comes equipped with the same heavy-duty stands as the

flagship VAD706, delivering high-end performance and a genuine acoustic feel.

The tom pads mount just like acoustic toms, so they feel just right when they

are hit. Newly developed thin V-Cymbals attach to a special pivot mount for a

natural acoustic swing and stick feel. And every stand is double-braced for

rock-solid stability and easily adjusted to suit your preferred layout.

Roland DTS321 V-Drums Acoustic Design Hardware

The Roland DTS321 set includes two DCS-30 tom/cymbal combination stands and one DBS-30 cymbal boom stand in a single package. Double-braced legs and large-diameter tubing provide maximum stability and flawless chrome plating delivers a premium look.

Roland 20-Inch Trigger Bass Drum

The Roland 20-Inch Trigger Bass Drum is a premium 20-Inch kick drum with a full-depth wood shell for the most immersive V-Drums Acoustic Design experience. It features an innovative pad sensor built into a head that mounts using the same method as an acoustic drum head. Every time the beater strikes, the air pressure inside the shell is precisely vented for a pedal feel that's remarkably similar to an acoustic kick drum. And thanks to Roland's advanced triggering and sensor technology, every stroke is accurately detected for perfect digital sound reproduction.
