Roland introduces the newest member of its award-winning V-Drums line: the TD-3SW, which succeeds the TD-3SV. The TD-3SW features a new type mesh snare pad (PDX-8) and an improved, enlarged hi-hat cymbal pad (CY-5).

Roland's V-Compact kit with a mesh snare
The V-Compact Series TD-3SW is the fastest and most affordable way to get into a real V-Drums® set. This expandable kit includes Roland's TD-3 Percussion Sound Module with high-quality sounds and unbelievable expressiveness, dual-trigger pads and cymbals, an upright kick trigger, onboard rhythm training exercises and more.

A High-Quality Drum Module with Rhythm Training Exercises
The TD-3 Percussion Sound Module boasts 114 high-quality drum and percussion sounds arranged into 32 kits, plus an easy-to-use interface so you can start playing right away. Finding the right drum kit is simple: just use the Phrase Preview function to hear a short demo for each kit. Each kit's sounds can be enhanced using 15 types of built-in Ambience effects and compression. And with Roland's enhanced Rhythm Coach onboard, drummers can improve their timing, speed and endurance using several rhythm-training exercises. A stereo Mix input lets you play along with external audio sources, while MIDI In and Out let you connect with sequencers and more.

Professional Feel at a Fraction of the Price
Thanks to Roland's latest pads and triggers, the V-Compact TD-3SW delivers ultra-realistic feel and expressiveness at a great price. The KD-8 Kick Trigger, for example, uses a vertical design to give drummers a more natural feel with minimal tremble and the ability to use double bass pedals. The CY-8 Cymbal Pads support both edge and bow sounds with "swinging" motion and choke capabilities, while the CY-5 coupled with the FD-8 Hi-Hat Controller delivers smooth hi-hat sounds from open to closed.
