Description
Please note that this kit does not include a kick pedal or hi-hat stand as standard.
The Roland TD-316 takes everything great about the TD-313 and adds pro-inspired upgrades for a truly immersive playing experience in a compact, home-friendly setup. With enhanced pads, dual crash cymbals, and stand-mounted VH-10 hi-hats, it offers an authentic acoustic-style feel that drummers will instantly recognise.

Packed with modern connectivity, expansion options, and performance-ready features, it’s the perfect choice for drummers who want next-level expression and flexibility in a compact footprint.

V31 V-Drums Sound Module
At the heart of the TD-316 is the V31 sound module, delivering the same responsive, multi-layered drum engine found in Roland’s top-tier systems. Compact yet powerful, it combines advanced sound modelling with an intuitive interface for effortless control and editing.
With Bluetooth audio, Wi-Fi connectivity, and smartphone app integration, it’s easy to practise smarter, perform confidently, and expand your sonic possibilities via Roland Cloud with V-Drums Instrument Expansions and Kit Packs.
PD-8H V-Pad (8")
The PD-8H 8-inch tom pad provides a natural and expressive playing surface ideal for practice or performance. Featuring an offset piezo sensor layout, it delivers consistent response across head and rim zones while reducing hot spots. The rubber rim, derived from Roland’s high-end pads, enhances comfort and reduces stick noise, making it perfect for quiet home use.
PD-10H V-Pad (10")
The PD-10H 10-inch tom pad offers a larger surface with the same responsive design as the PD-8H. Its offset sensor ensures accurate triggering and natural dynamics, while the durable rubber rim provides an authentic, comfortable feel. The result is a pad that bridges the gap between acoustic realism and electronic precision.
MDS-Compact 2 Drum Stand
The MDS-Compact 2 is designed to make the most of your space without compromising stability or flexibility. Its ball-clamp mounts provide precise positioning for snare and cymbal pads, while the wider H-frame base improves support for larger pad configurations or double-kick setups.
Compatible with traditional hi-hat stands, it’s ideal for players looking to refine their layout and enjoy a natural playing posture in smaller spaces.
