Roland TD-516S V-Drums Electronic Drum Kit
The Roland TD-516S is a professional V-Drums V51 Series kit featuring advanced digital pads and the next-generation V51 sound module. With the same flagship-grade sound engine as the V71, the TD-516S delivers unparalleled realism, sensitivity, and expressive range for both studio and stage. Its PD-140DS digital snare, VH-14D digital hi-hat, and CY-18DR digital ride respond naturally to every nuance, while the PD-series toms and KD-12 kick complete the dynamic setup. The V51 module supports deep sound editing, sample import, DW Soundworks integration, and wireless Roland Cloud connectivity for expanding your sonic palette. Combining superior playability with professional connectivity, the TD-516S offers the ideal balance of performance, expression, and control.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Roland TD-516S is the perfect choice for drummers seeking authentic digital response and studio-grade power in a modern V-Drums kit.
Please Note: A kick pedal, snare stand, hi-hat stand, & drum throne are not included and are shown above for illustrative purposes only.
