Roland V51 V-Drums Sound Module
The Roland V51 Sound Module is the powerhouse of the V-Drums 5 Series, delivering flagship-grade performance in a flexible, intuitive format. Featuring the same advanced sound engine as the V71, it offers over 1,000 instruments and 200 kits, all crafted in collaboration with Drum Workshop (DW). The V51 includes deep editing, EQ, compression, ambience effects, and sample import, plus three digital pad inputs and extensive analogue connectivity. Wireless Roland Cloud access, USB-C multi-channel audio/MIDI, and Bluetooth make it ideal for drummers who demand premium sound and total creative control.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Roland V51 is the perfect choice for serious drummers seeking flagship V-Drums tone, pro-level connectivity, and seamless expandability.
Please Note: An SD Card is required for song recording. An SD Card is not included.
