Roland introduces the TD-07KV V-Drums.

Roland expands their legendary V-Drums family with the compact and attractively priced TD-07KV.

The TD-07KV V-Drums are a smaller and more affordable new drum set added to the acclaimed V-Drums family. Over two-plus decades, V-Drums have established a well-earned reputation as the most realistic, best playing, and best sounding electronic drums available.

At the heart of the TD-07KV is the powerful TD-07 sound module. It’s filled with acoustic drums and percussion captured in precise detail in pro studios, brought to life with advanced V-Drums technologies that make them behave just like their acoustic counterparts. There’s a wide range of electronic percussion too, plus deep editing tools for personalizing every sound.

The TD-07KV is outfitted with Roland’s legendary double-ply, tension-adjustable mesh drumheads for snare and toms, giving you the most accurate playing feel and sensing available. The PDX-8 8-inch snare pad features independent head and rim zones for assigning different sounds, while three PDX-6A 6-inch tom pads offer single-zone triggering. The kit also includes CY-8 12-inch pads for crash and ride, a 10-inch hi-hat with integrated pedal, and a KD-10 kick pad.

The TD-07KV is available now, priced at $999.99.
