Roland has been designing groundbreaking electronic percussion products for decades. With
the introduction of V-Drums in 1997, a new era of electronic percussion was born. By combining
innovative technologies with the dynamic playing experience that drummers expect, Roland V-
Drums have become the standard by which all other electronic drum kits are measured. We Call
This The V-Drums Advantage
Patented Multi-Layer Mesh Heads
Roland’s mesh heads accurately reproduce your drumming techniques with outstanding
responsiveness and sensitivity, and are easily adjustable to fit your individual playing style.
This unique multi-layer design is only available on Roland V-Drums.
A Quiet Innovation
The unique design of the V-Drums’ mesh heads results in a drumhead that produces very little
acoustic noise when struck. (The same is true when you play rim shots on the V-Drums’ rubber-
coated rims.). With V-Drums, you can play with all the intensity you like, yet easily control the
sound level with a twist of the volume knob. And for those late-night practice and recording
sessions, just plug in a set of headphones.
Superior Playing Feel
You’ll experience a great acoustic drum feel when playing Roland V-Drums. Roland’s patented
multi-layer mesh drumheads play and react similarly to the drumheads on acoustic drums.
Designed to respond to the subtle nuances of your playing, they ensure that your drumming
techniques are accurately reproduced. The multi-layer mesh head design allows a much wider
tension range than single-layer mesh heads, so you can easily tension the heads for exactly the
right feel to fit your playing style with a standard drum key.
Quality & Durability
Roland products are known for quality and durability and Roland multi-layer mesh heads are no
exception. Designed to respond to the subtleties of your playing, Roland’s mesh heads are also
extremely durable and can handle even the most aggressive drumming.
Expressive Sounds
Roland has been on the forefront of cutting edge drum and percussion sounds for decades. With V-Drums,
these sounds respond to the drummer’s playing techniques just like acoustic drums.
Dynamic Expression
Like an acoustic instrument, Roland drum and percussion sounds change in volume when struck
with increased strength, but also like an acoustic instrument, they also change tonal
characteristics. Take an acoustic crash cymbal, for example: as the cymbal is struck harder, not
only does the volume increase, but the tone of the sound changes as well. On most models, the
cymbal pads can also be “choked” by squeezing the lower edge of the cymbal pad after is
struck, letting you instantly mute the cymbal sound just as you would by choking an acoustic
cymbal.
Expressive Hi-Hat Control
Every V-Drums drum set includes the most expressive hi-hat control available, and gives you all
the subtle tone colors an acoustic hi-hat. Not just open and closed - but all sound variations in
between as you move the hi-hat pedal while playing the pad. Even hi-hat heel splashes are
accurately reproduced.
