Genuine V-Drums Performance
Over two-plus decades, Roland V-Drums have established a well-earned reputation as the most realistic, best playing, and best sounding electronic drums available, bar none. Laying the path for all electronic drums sets that have followed, V-Drums are often imitated, but never equaled or bettered. The Roland TD-07KV V-Drums kit fully embodies this proud legacy. This kit brings you the finest electronic drumming experience available in its class.
Exceptional Sound
The heart of any great electronic drum set is a powerful, capable, and speedy sound module. As you’d expect from Roland, the TD-07 fully meets these demands. At your command are acoustic drums and percussion, all captured in precise detail in pro studios. And, because they’re brought to life with advanced V-Drums technologies that make them behave just like their acoustic counterparts as you play them, you’ll experience a true drumming feel. There’s a wide range of electronic percussion as well, plus the ability to personalize each and every sound to your liking.
Play Right Away—or Dive Deeper
The Roland TD-07KV module is filled with inspiring, great sounding, ready-to-play preset kits. For instant gratification right out of the box, you can count on Roland! And when you’re ready for deeper exploration, a massive drum library awaits. Switch out one snare for another, mix up the toms, go large on the kick drum, and swap heavy for light crashes and rides. Then tune the drums, add damping, and change the ambient environment at will. For the finishing touch, use the module’s individual EQs to shape the drums to perfection. It’s just like a pro sound engineer would do!
Truly Quiet Drums
One of the main advantages of choosing electronic drums for home playing is that they’re much quieter than acoustic drums. But not all electronic kits are created equal, and the amount of physical noise they generate can vary greatly. Because of their decades of R&D, the Roland TD-07KV V-Drums kit is purpose-designed to be much quieter than other e-kits. Mesh heads minimize pad noise without compromising stick rebound. Plus, special damping in the kick pad reduces noise and vibration while retaining a satisfying, natural feel. Even the stand components are designed to reduce vibration and noise transfer to the floor. If that’s not enough, Roland offers a range of optional solutions to further reduce noise if needed.
Real Acoustic Sound and Response
While some electronic kits promise “acoustic sound,” they actually just offer static drum tones that are triggered at varying levels, depending on how hard the pads are played. In stark contrast, V-Drums produce a rich array of tone colors. This provides an inspiring musical experience that feels like playing acoustic drums. Thanks to advanced precision sensors, the TD-07KV’s drum and cymbal pads detect every hit, stoke, roll, flam, and ghost note perfectly. Even cymbal chokes can be performed organically! Faster than you can blink, this information is processed by the sound module so that that exact correct tone is heard. You won’t notice any of this technology at work. But, when you close your eyes and start drumming with the TD-07KV, you’ll know that it feels just right.
Authentic Roland Mesh-Head Pads
Roland introduced the world’s first mesh drumhead to universal acclaim back in 1987. Quite simply, they’ve been the de facto standard ever since. Roland’s unique double-layer mesh design offers natural stick resistance and rebound that feels very close to playing an acoustic drumhead. Plus, adjustable tension also lets you fine-tune the feel using a standard drum key. Single-ply mesh heads used on other electronic drums are not made of the same material, so they don’t feel as good to play. They can also provide less accurate sensing, resulting in poor dynamic response and mis-triggering. The TD-07KV comes supplied with authentic Roland mesh-head snare and tom pads as standard, giving you the most accurate playing feel and sensing available.
Strong and Stable Hardware
When you’re drumming in full swing, there’s nothing more frustrating than a stand that feels unstable or a drum that starts to move away as you play it. The TD-07KV’s hardware delivers the rock-solid stability you need because it’s built with strong materials and quality components. The custom drum stand provides a firm, steady foundation, while precision clamps tightly hold all components in place. Carrying on the rugged durability that V-Drums are famous for, the TD-07KV is ready to stand up to years of heavy playing, day after day.
Play Along with Music Over Bluetooth
Drumming with favorite tracks is one of the most fun and productive things you can do with an electronic kit. And the TD-07KV makes it easy! Thanks to onboard Bluetooth, you can call up tracks on your favorite device and wirelessly hear the audio through the module right alongside the drums. Video sound is transmitted too, which is perfect for playing along with online songs and lesson content. Plus, if you don’t have a Bluetooth device, you can just plug in your stereo sound with a cable. MIDI transmission over Bluetooth is also supported, allowing you to record MIDI data in music apps cable-free.
Connectivity with Music Software via USB
A huge benefit of electronic drums is direct communication with modern music production software. The TD-07 module is an audio/MIDI recording interface in itself. It can send stereo sound and MIDI data to a Mac or Windows computer via a single USB cable. This lets you record discrete audio and MIDI drum tracks in any DAW, or trigger sounds in software-based drum instruments for studio or live playing.
