Roland V71

Roland V71 – Flagship Electronic Drum Sound Module with DW Collaboration

The Roland V71 sound module is the most advanced brain in the V-Drums family, raising the standard for realism and control in electronic percussion. An all-new sound library co-developed with Drum Workshop (DW) offers detail and dynamic range never before possible in a hardware module. Roland’s proprietary behavior modeling, multi-layer sample playback, and expressive digital pad support position this module at the forefront of innovation. As the core of the V-Drums 7 Series, it includes built-in wireless, Roland Cloud expandability, and a powerful editing suite for deep sound customization. Built for demanding players, producers, and studios, this flagship device offers uncompromising flexibility and quality.

Unprecedented Sound and Editing Power

What sets the V71 apart is its combination of custom multi-sampled acoustic kits recorded at 32-bit/192 kHz in top studios, and the ability to freely expand its soundset via Roland Cloud. DW Soundworks integration enables seamless hybrid setups between module and computer. Advanced DSP, a graphic color LCD, and wireless features streamline both performance and editing. Unique features like the auto slot load for expansions, sample import (WAV, MP3), and highly detailed pad and effect routing unlock sound-shaping tools rarely seen in hardware modules.
