The Roland V51 Drum Sound Module is the creative hub of the V‑Drums 5 Series, delivering premium sound, expressive control, and advanced connectivity for serious drummers. Powered by the same engine as the flagship V71, it combines professional audio quality with a fast, intuitive workflow and wireless expansion options.
Its multi‑sampled library�created in collaboration with Drum Workshop (DW)�provides detailed, realistic tones with deep layers of expression. The module integrates seamlessly with DW Soundworks software for computer‑based drumming, while Roland Cloud access enables instant downloads of new kits, instruments, and expansion content via the Roland Cloud Connect app.
Designed for maximum flexibility, the V51 includes powerful editing tools, studio‑grade processing, and three dedicated digital pad inputs for Roland�s advanced snare, ride, and hi‑hat pads. With USB‑C multichannel recording, Bluetooth® audio, and built‑in coaching tools, it�s a complete command centre for practice, performance, and production.
