GOOD:  ROLAND DRUM SETS TD-07 Series

NOTE:  there are some optional accessories (including some that may be pictured such as a bass drum pedal, throne, etc.) you will need to complete your drum set.  See below for information.

BETTER:  ROLAND DRUM SET V31 Series

The V-Drums 3 Series brings next-gen V-Drums expression and flexibility to three compact kits for daily practice and home recording. The V31 sound module features the same flagship-grade engine as the V71 and V51 modules in our premium kits, delivering rich, multi-sampled onboard sounds and a seamless transition to DW Soundworks software for computer-based drumming. You also get powerful tools for skill development and jamming, updated components for enhanced playability, and built-in wireless connectivity to access an ever-expanding range of sound expansions and other V-Drums content on Roland Cloud.  With the V-Drums 3 Series under your sticks, the high-end V-Drums experience has never been so accessible and affordable.

The TD316 is an exceptional value when compared to the TD313 because it includes a 2nd crash cymbal ($220 value) with cymbal arm mount ($170 value), a hi-hat pad ($454 value) that sits on a traditional acoustic hi-hat stand (not included), and a wider stand/frame for a more comfortable fit with teens and adults.

BEST:  ROLAND DRUM SET V51 Series

The TD516 V-Drum Set has all the features of the TD316 plus these significant upgrades:

• 14″ Snare with a 4.3″ deep reflective steel shell.  The three-ply mesh head with accurate positional detection features advanced multi-element sensor that allows unprecedented playing of dynamics (over a thousand levels of stick sensitivity) producing snare sounds that are natural, detailed, and full of character.  Ghost notes, rim shots, brush sweep, and cross stick playing techniques are all automatically detected.  (Watch video demo of the snare CLICK HERE)
• 18″ Ride Cymbal with multi-sensor system that detects every nuance of from soft to hard (over a thousand levels of stick sensitivity).  You can also mute the cymbal simply by placing your palm or fingers anywhere on the cymbal.
• VH-14D digital hi-hat with advanced multi-sensor triggering, offering touch sensitivity, tonal variation, and open/closed resolution that’s never been available until now. The two-piece design and thin 14-inch pads provide a familiar look and natural feel, while the high-resolution, multi-sensor system tracks velocity, stick position, and foot work with maximum precision. Foot splashes are reproduced authentically, and you can even mute the cymbals with a hand touch—just like acoustic hi-hats.
• V51 drum module features front panel real-time controls, assignable direct outputs, three auxiliary inputs to add additional pads (for example Bar Trigger Pad, Cymbal Pad, Fourth Tom, etc.).
• Larger Kick Drum Pad and slightly larger drum stand.
• NOTE:  there are some optional accessories (including some that may be pictured such as a bass drum pedal, throne, etc.) you will need to complete your drum set.  See below for information.
