Roland Cloud V-Drums TD-50X Upgrade

Upgrade Your TD-50 Module with the Expressive Power of the TD-50X

The TD-50X Upgrade brings the complete expressive power of Roland's most advanced drum module to the original TD-50.

Filled with new instrument sounds, preset kits, and feature enhancements - including fully optimized performance with the VH-14D digital hi-hat - this upgrade is a must-have for all TD-50 module owners.

Refined Playability and 900+ New Sounds

The TD-50X Upgrade features over 900 total sounds - up from 422 in the original module - including hundreds of new kick, snare, hi-hat, tom, and cymbal selections.

These premium drums leverage the full expressive potential of the Prismatic Sound Modeling engine, providing amazing playability with rich overtones and unlimited sonic colors.

70 New Preset Kits

Also included are 70 newly developed preset kits, all purposefully tuned for full, punchy, and dynamic sound.

Imagine acoustic drums that are mic’d, processed, and mixed in a world-class studio - that’s what you'll get.

Created with top drummers and recording engineers, these inspiring kits let you take on any style at the touch of a button, from traditional jazz to full-throttle metal.

VH-14D Digital Hi-Hat Support

The advanced digital pad technology first introduced with the PD-140DS snare and CY-18DR ride has been expanded with the VH-14D digital hi-hat, bringing ultra-detailed playability to the three most nuanced pieces in the kit.

This groundbreaking electronic hi-hat takes performance to an all-new level, offering touch sensitivity, tonal variation, and open/closed resolution never available until now.

The TD-50X Upgrade provides the most complete and immersive VH-14D experience you can get, with sounds and processing fully optimized for its sophisticated detection capabilities.

32 Channels for Computer Music Production

If you use your TD-50 for recording and producing tracks in a DAW, the TD-50X upgrade makes it even more powerful.

With the Core Audio driver on a Mac or ASIO driver on a Windows computer, there's now support for 32 channels of premium-quality audio transfer over USB, up from the 10 channels with the standard TD-50.

PureAcoustic Ambience and More Multi-Effects

The TD-50X Upgrade extends the TD-50’s ambience features with PureAcoustic Ambience technology, bringing a new level of realism to the electronic drumming experience.

Instantly place kits in stunningly natural and immersive sound fields, from tight studio spaces to massive halls and everything in-between.

More sound-shaping tools are included with the upgrade as well, with multi-effects selections increased from 30 to 38.

Sound Expansion Through Roland Cloud

The TD-50X and upgraded TD-50 modules are the first V-Drums products to be supported through Roland Cloud, an evolving platform that offers a diverse range of authentic Roland software synthesizers and instrument sound libraries.

Roland Cloud unlocks an expanding collection of premium V-Drums kits and curated samples for studio production and live playing, with access to a variety of releases the moment they arrive.

Compatibility with DWe Wireless Electronic Drums

In 2022, Drum Workshop (DW) - the latest member of the Roland family of brands - introduced DWe, a high-end convertible drum set that can be played as either an acoustic or electronic kit.

The TD-50X Upgrade now includes compatibility with the DWe DrumLink hub via a direct USB connection.

This allows you to use the module as an electronic sound source for drums in a DWe kit, providing a hardware-based alternative to the DW Soundworks software that runs on Mac and Windows computers.
