Roland V31 V-Drums Module

Full Description

Flagship sound without the bulk

The V31 module runs on the same engine as Roland’s top-tier V71, delivering the same expressive dynamics and sound depth in a smaller format. Every kit uses multi-sampled recordings from DW drum sets, capturing the subtle tonal shifts of real acoustic drums. Whether you’re tapping a quiet ghost note or driving a full groove, each strike feels and sounds natural. You get over 1,000 instruments ready to play, all supported by Roland’s proven behaviour modelling for ultra-realistic response.

Expand your sound instantly

With built-in wireless connectivity, the V31 makes it easy to explore new sounds whenever inspiration hits. Using the Roland Cloud Connect app, you can browse and download new Instrument Expansions and Kit Packs directly to the module—no cables or computers needed. Up to six expansions can be active at once, and you can mix and match drums and cymbals from different kits to create your ideal setup. It’s a simple way to keep your sound fresh and personal.

Smart practice tools built in

Coach Mode helps you sharpen technique and timing with real-time feedback tools such as Time Check, Stroke Monitor, and Phrase Trainer. Plus, you’ll get access to 100 Melodics lessons through Roland’s exclusive Drum Pass bundle. These features make daily practice more structured and enjoyable, helping you build consistency over time. You can also record your sessions to SD media or stream backing tracks over Bluetooth, making it easy to track your progress and stay motivated.

Studio-ready connectivity and control

The V31 isn’t just a great practice companion—it’s a capable studio hub too. With its USB-C audio/MIDI interface, you can record up to 30 channels directly into your DAW and trigger virtual instruments with minimal setup. There’s also a mix input for playback devices, two extra trigger inputs for pad expansion, and full support for Roland’s digital snare, ride, or hi-hat pads. Everything connects neatly through the included multi-pin harness, keeping your setup clean and efficient.
