PRESS RELEASE

TD-6SW V-Tour Series Kit

March 31, 2006

Roland proudly announces the newest member of its V-Drums® line: the TD-6SW, which succeeds the TD-6SV. The TD-6SW features a new mesh snare pad (PDX-8) with an expanded 10-inch rim design, offering a more comfortable playing feel and quieter response.

Also new is an improved, enlarged hi-hat cymbal pad (CY-5) and MDS-6SL drum stand, which has been upgraded with a second horizontal tier of pipes to improve stability and durability. The attractive silver stand is a great match for the TD-6SW.

The core of the TD-6SW kit is the TD-6V Percussion Sound Module, a 64-voice brain that offers over 1,000 of Roland's best drum/percussion sounds. Dual-trigger tom inputs allow for rim shots on toms. Large, luminous buttons and a cool, blue display make the TD-6V fun and friendly to use.

Drummers will appreciate the TD-6SW's upright kick drum pad. Its vertical design not only provides a better feel compared to reverse-type kick pads, but also reduces vibration so you get nothing but solid kick sounds. And here's more good news: The kick pad can accommodate double-bass pedals.

The newly designed CY-5 dual-trigger cymbal pad features a 12-inch playing zone and swing movement for a more natural feel. For drummers who want to join the V-Drum revolution, this new kit offers unbeatable performance for its price class.
