NAMM Update: Roland V-Club Electronic Drums

NAMM Update: Roland V-Club Electronic Drums


Roland

Posted 2001-07-23


Our last stop, but certainly not least, was the Roland / Boss booth on Sunday. Our PR buddy Tara showed us around to all of the great new products and we received in-depth demos of each new unit.

One of the most exciting things for you drummers and home recording freaks out there will surely be the V-Club Electronic Drum Kit. With an MSRP around $1400, this unit comes packed with some incredible sounding samples and is a sturdy and easy to play kit as well.

The word from Roland is:

"The V-Club Set arrives as Roland's most affordable compact drum system, bringing the world's leading drum sounds and acclaimed playability to a new price point. This expandable set is based around the all-new TD-6 Percussion Sound Module, newly developed rubber drum pads, and new dual-trigger cymbal pads with choke capabilities, giving you the power to sound and play your best."

Featuring:

  • Affordable new compact drum system based around TD-6 Percussion Sound Module and new drum and cymbal pads
  • TD-6 Percussion Sound Module offers 64-voice polyphony, 1,024 high-quality drum sounds, 262 backing sounds, 99 kits and a 6-part sequencer
  • Five PD-6 8.5" rubber pads provide durable, reliable triggering
  • Two CY-6 12" dual-trigger cymbal pads yield natural dynamics and "choke" capabilities
  • 9 trigger inputs on TD-6 accommodate up to 11 pads and cymbals, including acclaimed Roland mesh-head V-pads
  • Includes hi-hat pedal, kick drum trigger, stand and all connecting hardware
  • TD-6 module and complete system designed for easy setup and intuitive operation


Stay tuned for more great NAMM product news from Roland / Boss over the next couple of days... CB
