Experience the Roland VAD 506: The Ultimate Acoustic/Electronic Drum Kit
Immerse Yourself in the Acoustic Design of the V-Drums
If you’re searching for the perfect combination of the glamour and presence of a full acoustic drum kit with the convenience and control of electronic drums, look no further than the Roland VAD 506. This exceptional five-piece kit showcases full-depth and diameter wooden shells, exquisitely finished and mounted on double-braced chrome stands, creating an appearance that will effortlessly convince any audience that you’re playing acoustic drums. With Roland’s advanced digital sensor technology and dynamic TD-27 drum module, you’ll experience sound and response that perfectly complement each other, ensuring that every stroke, ghost note, roll, and swell is expressed in remarkable detail.
An Immersive Acoustic Drumming Experience
The VAD 506 provides an impressive appearance, a familiar layout, and inspiring playability that will make any drummer feel right at home. This kit includes a 14″ stainless steel snare, 10″ and 12″ rack toms, a 14″ floor tom, and a 20″ kick, all constructed with full wooden shells. These features contribute to the authenticity of the kit and provide a truly acoustic feel under the stick and beater. Additionally, a complete set of cymbals is included, featuring a 12″ V-Hi-Hat, 14″ and 16″ crashes with thin profiles and textured finishes, and an 18″ ride. This comprehensive cymbal selection enhances playability and creates a natural appearance on stage.
Enhanced Realism with the 14″ Digital Snare and 18″ Digital Ride Cymbal
Roland’s advanced digital pad technology takes the V-Drums experience to a whole new level of realism. The digital snare and ride pads connect to the TD-27 module via USB cables, working in harmony with the sound engine to deliver the most natural expression possible. These pads feature multiple sensors and lightning-fast processing, resulting in incredible response that allows you to play with real techniques in the most authentic way. Whether it’s ghost notes, rim shots, or cross stick playing on the snare, every detail is accurately detected and translated. The ride cymbal offers a wide tonal range and the ability to subtly mute with just a touch of the bow or cup.
