The Roland VAD716SW bridges the gap between traditional acoustic aesthetics and cutting-edge digital performance. With full-size wooden shells, chrome hardware, and advanced digital triggering, this flagship kit delivers an immersive playing experience designed for professionals on stage, in the studio, or at home.
The 6-piece setup includes a 14" digital snare, 10"/12"/14" toms, a 22" wood-shell kick, and digital hi-hat (14"), ride (18"), and crash cymbals (16"). The pads respond with outstanding nuance and articulation, offering true-to-life feel and consistency across playing zones.
At the core, the V71 module features high-resolution sampled kits developed in collaboration with DW, complete with onboard effects (EQ, compression, reverb), ambience control, and a user-friendly interface with a 4.3" colour screen. It provides deep editing tools and intuitive access to all sounds and settings.
Connectivity is studio-grade: stereo XLR outs, 8 direct outs, multi-channel USB (32 audio + MIDI), Bluetooth audio/MIDI, and Wi-Fi for direct Roland Cloud access and sound pack downloads. The included DW Soundworks software ensures seamless computer integration.
Finished in natural satin walnut, the VAD716SW looks and feels like an acoustic set — but responds with the flexibility and sonic depth of the most advanced digital drum systems available today.
