V-Drums Tom Pads with high quality trigger system

Three side triggers operate in the shells of Roland VAD tom pads. They form a system that avoids a "hot spot" in the middle of the hitting surface. The three triggers are located very far from the edge. Since this area is usually played less, the chance for a hot-spot hit is lower than for systems with center triggers. A "hot spot" is the small area directly above a trigger that, when hit hard, gives an overdriven signal to the drum module. In the module this leads to distortions in the dynamic bandwidth and in the headphones you will get an unpleasantly loud signal. With the side triggers, the hot-spot hit rate is much smaller.

The side trigger system gives you consistent sensitivity across the entire playing area. This results in an extremely natural reproduction of your playing dynamics. No matter what you play on the 2-layer Mesh Head or on the Rim of the Dual Zone Pad - it will be faithfully passed on to your module.

E-Kick-Drum with realistic feel of an acoustic bass drum

With the KD-200 Kick Drum, Roland offers an electronic kick pad in the guise of a conventional bass drum. The full-size real wood shell with Midnight Sparkle foil finish and custom chrome hardware is covered with a black front head and gives the impression of a conventional acoustic bass drum.

On the batter side, a sensitive trigger system works unnoticed by the audience at the gig. The pad with a fabric-foam-rubber coating has a sufficiently dimensioned playing surface, which is also large enough for the mallets of your double pedal.

The trigger technology precisely captures each of your kicks and relays the signal to your drum module for authentic sound reproduction.

Roland VAD - Sophisticated look in acoustic design

VAD series shells are visually indistinguishable from acoustic drums. They are high quality foiled and have all the details of conventional shells. Authentic shell dimensions with a Reso Mesh Head on the bottom, premium chrome tension hoops and classy hardware give you the perfect appearance of an acoustic drum. And even inside the shells are made true to the original. This is because the shells are made of multi-layered instrument wood, which is also used for acoustic drums.
