The Roland VAD316 combines the authentic look and feel of acoustic drums with the precision and versatility of Roland’s V-Drums technology. Featuring responsive pads, multi-zone triggering, and a high-quality sound module, it delivers dynamic, expressive performances suitable for both studio and live settings. Engineered for serious drummers, the VAD316 offers professional-grade playability, tonal customization, and reliable performance across any musical environment.
The V-Drums 3 Series brings you next-gen V-Drums expression and flexibility for daily practice and home recording. The V31 sound module features the same flagship-grade engine as the V71 and V51 modules in our premium kits, delivering rich, multi-sampled onboard sounds and a seamless transition to DW Soundworks software for computer-based drumming. You also get powerful tools for skill development and jamming, updated components for enhanced playability, and built-in wireless connectivity to access an ever-expanding range of sound expansions and other V-Drums content on Roland Cloud.
With shallow-depth wood shells and a full-size kick drum, the VAD316 offers the presence, feel, and familiar layout of a traditional acoustic set—but with complete volume control. Blending premium acoustic details with the latest V-Drums tech, this attractive and expressive kit provides a high-quality experience for home sessions, project studio recording, and more.
With a large color display, direct controls, and an intuitive menu structure, it’s easy to access kits, volume levels, backing music, practice tools, and more. Everything’s underpinned with ultra-powerful DSP and expanded waveform memory, unlocking a universe of creative expression.
The V31’s kits come ready to play, allowing you to experience world-class sounds with the turn of a dial. To add a personal touch, press the EZ Edit button to quickly change up kick and snare sounds, adjust pitch and damping, balance drum and cymbal levels, and more. If you want to go even further, dive into the module’s deeper editing tools or use the V31 Editor on your Mac or Windows computer.
One of the most loved V-Drums features is the onboard coach mode, which offers an array of fun tools to develop techniques and keep your playing sharp. There’s an advanced metronome and classics such as Time Check and Quiet Count, plus new tools like Phrase Trainer for rhythmic practice, Stroke Monitor for stick control, and Blast Beast for building accuracy and endurance. V-Drums 3 Series kits also include Drum Pass, an exclusive Roland bundle of 100 Melodics™ interactive lessons specially developed for V-Drums players.
By design, all V-Drums modules are very easy to use. But if you want an even more streamlined experience, V-Drums Play is for you. This companion app provides direct control of essential module functions from your smartphone, including kit selection, metronome settings, and recording to capture your drumming at any time. Perfect for beginners and acoustic players new to electronic drums, V-Drums Play keeps you focused on what matters most—having fun and improving every day.
The V31 features a built-in Roland wireless adapter that links with your network, letting you audition and download sound content directly via the Roland Cloud Connect app on a mobile device. You can update the module wirelessly, making it simple to stay up to date with the latest system software. Bluetooth audio/MIDI is also available, allowing you to jam with songs on your phone, play along with video lessons, and more.
With the V31 module’s multi-pin jack and wiring harness, pad connections are quick, clean, and efficient. There are also two analog trigger inputs for optional crash or trigger pads, plus a dedicated input to upgrade your setup with a high-resolution digital snare, ride, or hi-hat pad used in pro-level V-Drums kits. You also have a stereo output for sound monitoring, a headphone jack for quiet practice, and an analog mix input for a music player or Roland percussion pad.
Use the module’s integrated USB audio/MIDI interface to communicate with DW Soundworks, the V31 Editor, and other music software. And when you’re ready to dive into computer music production, you can capture up to 30 audio channels in a DAW over a single cable.

In developing the V71 module for the acclaimed V-Drums 7 Series, we built an entirely new onboard sound library in collaboration with Drum Workshop (DW), bringing unmatched realism and creative command to V-Drums. The V31 module is equipped with the same internal engine as the V71, giving you the identical sounds and expansion path in a streamlined interface. Crafted from a hand-picked selection of the world’s finest drum sets, these record-ready sounds deliver the detail, punch, and sonic quality found in the most expensive computer collections.
Just like the V71, you can freely change up the sound set within the V31 module to keep your music fresh. Open the Roland Cloud Connect app on your mobile device to access a growing range of V-Drums Instrument Expansion titles via your wireless network. Then, find the sounds you want, download them directly to the module, and start drumming immediately.
Drum sounds exist in two distinct universes. One is the intimate, up-close sound of the drums when you’re behind the kit. The second is the produced sound you hear in recordings and live concerts, which is typically processed with EQs, compressors, and ambience. Some V-Drums Instrument Expansion titles have been specially mixed for both the drummer and producer positions, letting you create the playing experience you want at the touch of a button.
With its ergonomic panel layout and streamlined interface, the V31 is simple for anyone to operate. Quickly call up kits, adjust sounds on the fly, and lose yourself with a full slate of onboard skill-developing tools. When you’re done for the day, use the module’s convenient tray to keep your sticks ready for the next playing session.
Every V-Drums 3 Series kit can trigger sounds in DW Soundworks,* a revolutionary drum software instrument that runs as a standalone computer application or a DAW plug-in. Many DW Soundworks expansions mirror V-Drums Instrument Expansion titles, allowing you to transition to software-based drumming with the identical sound and response as the module.
*Included with Roland Cloud Ultimate membership.
On Roland Cloud, you’ll never run out of fresh inspiration for your drumming journeys. V-Drums Instrument Expansions add all-new drum kits to the module, recorded using the same detailed process as the core library. Up to six expansions can be active at once, and you can freely exchange kicks, snares, cymbals, and other components between different kits. We also offer V-Drums Kit Packs created by top drummers and producers, including many titles for playing with spot-on recreations of the kits used in the most influential songs of all time.
