The latest generation of V-Drums

Roland have pioneered electronic drum kits as we know them today. The V-Drums series lead the way when it comes to technology and innovation. The Roland VAD-103 upholds the tradition with unbeatable durability, sensor precision and behavioural modelling technology. Experience the acclaimed V-Drums acoustic design series which offer real wood shells and acoustic drum presence.

Bigger pads, better feel, smaller footprint

The VAD-103 is the perfect balance of playability, pad size, and a compact footprint. The shallow beater is purposefully built to provide a satisfying ‘push’ to the 18-inch kick. While the 12-inch snare and floor tom pads are sizeable enough for an authentic kit feel, but compact enough to the space conscious drummer. To complete your acoustic vibe, mount the VH-10 hi-hat cymbals to an acoustic stand. The 13-inch ride cymbal feels very satisfying to play without compromising on your valuable space.

Drum tones for every genre, song, and band

The TD-07 sound module offers 25 ready-to-play drum kits recorded by professional drummers in high end studios. Then, brought to life through Roland’s advanced behaviour modelling technology. So whether you’re looking for electronic, acoustic or percussion sounds, the VAD-103 offers deep customisation options at your finger tips.
