Roland PD14DSX 14" Digital Snare

The PD-14DSX is included with every V-Drums 7 Series kit. When paired with the deep capabilities of the flagship V71 module, this advanced snare pad offers the most natural playing experience in electronic drumming, with ultra-detailed positional sensing and over 16,000 velocity variations across the entire pad surface. The multi-sensor trigger system and high-speed digital communication translate every nuance, from hard hits to the softest articulations. Hand position is automatically detected, allowing for seamless transitions between headshots, rimshots, and cross-stick playing.

A newly designed pad structure provides a natural look and feel, with a rubber hoop set inside of the triple-flange hoop and rim height like a standard acoustic snare. The PD-14DSX is also fitted with a throw-off mechanism to turn the virtual snares on or off with the quick flip of a lever, while the strainer knob enables you to dial in snare tension with a twist. Additionally, the knob includes a button to control assignable functions in the module.
