Meet Roland V-Drums 5 Series, the new game-changer.
Roland's New V-Drums 5 Series is coming to our store soon, and we're all excited about it.
This new series gives you the amazing sound of Roland’s top-of-the-line V-Drums—the flagship V-Drums 7 Series—but at a much easier-to-afford price.
Whether you play on stage, record music, or just practice at home, the Roland V-Drums 5 Series offers a wide range of premium experiences that went beyond our expectation.
1. The Sound: Flagship Engine Inside the V-51 Module
The secret behind the power of the Roland V-Drums 5 Series is the V-51 sound module. Think of it like a high end engine being put into your family car, you get to enjoy the high end experience with a mid range price tag.
- Identical Pro Sounds: The V-51 module uses the exact same advanced sound technology as Roland’s most expensive kit. This means your drums sound perfectly recorded and punchy, ready for any song.
- Real-World Kits: Roland worked with the famous drum company DW Drums to create a library of multi-layered, authentic drum sounds. When you hit a pad, it responds just like a finely tuned acoustic drum.
- Wireless Expansion: You can easily download new drum kits and sounds directly to the module using the Roland Cloud Connect app and Wi-Fi. It’s like getting a constant supply of new drum kits without ever leaving your seat.
2. The Feel: Digital Pads Make It Feel Real
How the pads feel when you hit them is what separates Roland from the rest. The best kits in the V-Drums 5 Series come with cutting-edge digital pads.
- Smarter Snare: The digital snare pad knows exactly where you hit—the middle, the rim, and even when you play a cross-stick (where you rest your hand on the rim).
- Example: If you’re playing a soft acoustic part and gently tap the pad, it gives you a soft tap. If you change your hand position to play a rimshot, the sound instantly changes, just like an acoustic snare.
- Acoustic Appearance: Want an electronic kit that looks like a real drum set? The VAD-516 (V-Drums Acoustic Design) kit in the 5 Series features full-size wooden shells and the digital pads, making it perfect for the stage.
3. Practice Tools to Make You Better
The Roland's new V-Drums 5 Series isn't just a playing kit; it's a dedicated teacher.
- Advanced Coach Mode: The upgraded Coach Mode helps you practice smarter. Tools like Phrase Trainer help you slow down complicated drum beats to master them, and the Stroke Monitor checks the strength of your hits so your playing is consistent.
- Free Lessons: Your kit includes an exclusive full library of free lessons through the Melodics™ app, which uses games and interactivity to make learning challenging but fun.
