Roland PD-140DS V-Pad Digital Snare Overview
Roland PD-140DS V-Pad Digital Snare
The new Roland PD-140DS Digital V-Pad combines snare tradition with the latest triggering technology
A brand new three-layer mesh head is fitted to a standard size 14" shell for natural rebound and feel and is instantly familiar to play. But now, thanks to Roland’s newly developed multi-element sensor system, your hits across every area of the pad are more closely detected, and your playing dynamics captured in minute detail.
Rim shots and cross-sticks are automatically detected as the pad senses your hand and adjusts accordingly, producing a sound that is natural, detailed and bursting with character. To enjoy the optimum performance from this groundbreaking digital drum pad, it must be paired with the processing power and digital trigger inputs of Roland’s new flagship TD-50 sound module.
