Roland presented two new V-Drums sets, the TD-11KV and TD-11K, that both feature a module powered by Roland's SuperNatural sounds. These are produced by Behavior Modeling technology, directly derived from the company's highly-regarded flagship TD-30 range.

In addition to the incredibly expressive and natural sounds onboard, the newly installed backing songs and USB function provide an effective tool kit for live performers as well as students.

TD-11 module
The TD-11 sound module, the brain of both e-drum kits, features 190 instruments and 50 user-customizable drum kits, plus a new powerful ambience feature and 10 trigger inputs. The module offers a large LCD interface plus Coach and Quick Rec functions to help build drumming skills. Two different usb ports allow you to play audio files from convenient flash media and connect directly to computers for midi/audio over usb.

TD-11KV
Roland’s mesh-head pads are included throughout the TD-11KV set. There are PDX-8 mesh-head V-Pads for the snare and floor tom, plus two PDX-6 mesh-head V-Pads for the rack toms. Additional components include the KD-9 kick trigger pad, a CY-5 dual-trigger cymbal pad and FD-8 hi-hat controller, CY-12C and CY-13R/C V-Cymbals for crash and ride, and the new MDS-4V drum stand.

TD-11
Theaffordable TD-11K set offers a PDX-8 mesh-head V-Pad for the snare, three PD-8A rubber-head single trigger pads for the toms, and a KD-9 kick trigger pad. Also included is a CY-5 dual-trigger cymbal pad and FD-8 hi-hat controller, CY-8 dual-trigger cymbal pads for crash and ride, and the MDS-4V drum stand.

The TD-11KV and TD-11K V-Drums V-Compact Series will be available in late spring.

Earlier this week Roland also presented the new TD-15K and TD-15KV mid-range kits at the Musikmesse.
