The flagship TD-50KV2 represents the pinnacle of V-Drums innovation, delivering the most complete electronic drumming experience available anywhere. Large, top-of-the-line pads and cymbals are featured throughout, including groundbreaking digital snare, ride, and hi-hat pads that bring ultra-detailed playability to the three most nuanced pieces in the kit. The next-generation TD-50X module provides unmatched tone, feel, and response, coupled with deep editing tools to fully personalise your sound and pro connectivity to take on any playing situation. If you’re looking for the ultimate in V-Drums performance, look no further than the TD-50KV2.
The Prismatic Sound Modelling in the TD-50X makes electronic drums come to life like no other system can, infusing multi-layer samples recorded in world-class studios with sophisticated behaviour modelling techniques refined over more than two decades. Inspired by a prism—which refracts a single ray of light into every colour in the spectrum—our revolutionary approach produces an unlimited array of sonic colours with every stick hit. The initial attack is followed by a complex mix of rich overtones, just like playing acoustic drums and cymbals. You can feel the sound changing in reaction to your expression, creating that magical, interactive bond that fully immerses you in the emotion of the moment. From subtle ghost notes and detailed articulations to the loudest and most intense playing, your drumming has no boundaries with the TD-50X.
Roland's breakthrough digital pad technology fully realises the vast expressive potential made possible with Prismatic Sound Modelling. Multi-sensor detection in the snare, ride, and hi-hat pads works with the lightning-fast processing in the TD-50X module to bring authentic acoustic nuance and detail to these core kit pieces. All your playing techniques translate seamlessly, such as subtly touching the ride to mute the sound or switching at will between head, rimshot, and cross stick playing on the snare. The game-changing VH-14D completes the experience, offering touch sensitivity, tonal variation, and open/closed resolution never available in electronic hi-hats until now.
The TD-50KV2 features Roland’s famous multi-ply mesh heads, with a three-layer head on the snare and two-layer heads on the toms providing natural stick resistance and rebound for ultra-satisfying feel and response. Just like drumheads on acoustic drums, you can tweak the tension to your preference with a standard drum key. And since our mesh heads produce very little acoustic noise, the TD-50KV2 is perfect for both quiet practice sessions with headphones and live performance setups that require complete volume control on stage.
With its full-size spread and large-diameter snare and tom pads, the TD-50KV2 gives you the big vibe of a premium acoustic kit. The 18-inch KD-180 bass drum has the authentic feel and onstage presence of a traditional kick, with Roland’s special air-damper mechanics providing natural resistance and rock-solid triggering. And the large cymbal pads are 40-percent thinner than previous generations, offering the most satisfying stick response to date.
