Roland VAD-307 V-Drums Acoustic Design  

The Roland VAD-307 is the second generation of the Roland VAD concept. VAD stands for V-Drum Acoustic Design - in short, the playing capabilities of an electronic drum kit with the look of an acoustic set. Although its predecessor, the VAD-306, was an unprecedented success, Roland decided it was time for an update. The TD-17 module that comes with this drum kit has had an update that makes it of a much higher level. The crash cymbal has also become a lot thinner, increasing the playing experience, and the hardware has become of better quality.All in all, this new set offers some considerable advantages for the future!

DIGITAL DRUM KIT IN AN ACOUSTIC JACKET

Roland has been the market leader in digital drum kits for decades, one for good reason. Their technology and ease of use makes it one of the best choices for beginners and professionals alike. Despite the convenience of a digital drum kit, the instrument's appearance has long been criticised. Roland has taken that feedback and created the new VAD series. The biggest difference compared to the TD series is, of course, the looks. The realistic toms, wooden 12‘ snare and large 18’ kick drum make the VAD307 not only beautiful to look at, but also to play on. Roland did keep the footprint of this drum kit compact, making it ideal for home use or other tight spaces. In addition, they also play very realistically thanks to the special Roland Mesh heads that can be adjusted in detail to suit your playing style.

Other models in the VAD series include the VAD507, which is a fairly comprehensive kit, and the VAD504, which is a bit more compact. So the VAD drum kits combine the best of both, incorporating the advantages of an acoustic drum kit and digital drum kit. So you have the beautiful look and sound of an acoustic kit, but the versatility, transportability, features, recording possibilities and customisability of a digital kit. So a perfect balance!

LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES

The shells of the VAD306 are made of wood, with chrome hardware and mesh heads. The pads have a great response. The pad responds depending on how hard and where it is hit. This makes the drum kit's response incredible, just like an acoustic kit. Moreover, the drums have a dual-zone pad, triggering both the sheet and the rim. It also incorporates high-quality sensor technology, translating the beats perfectly into the sound.

So the look, sound and playing experience of the Roland VAD306 is more realistic than ever before, but what about the drum computer? Roland didn't skimp on that either. The new TD-17 version 2.0 drum computer has unprecedented capabilities with Roland adding many extra samples with the 2.0 update. This means you can use the best drum samples Roland has ever made on the VAD307. In addition, you can combine your favourite drum samples and create your own kits.

It is also possible to purchase separate pads/drums and connect them to the module to expand your kit. Moreover, the drum kit has a built-in Bluetooth connection to connect a phone or laptop. This makes it easy to stream, play along and record. This makes the VAD307 great not only for the stage, but also for the studio! In short: The Roland VAD307 is a great digital drum kit that resembles a real acoustic not only in appearance, but also in playing experience!
