Noise-Reducing Kick Pedals and Hi-Hat Stand for V-Drums Players

Just announced at the 2018 NAMM Show, Roland’s new Noise Eater drum hardware solves the pedal noise transfer problems faced by electronic drummers who play in multi-story buildings. The lineup includes a single kick pedal, a double kick pedal, and a hi-hat stand, and each features Roland’s pioneering noise and vibration reduction system built into the pedal base. Designed specifically for electronic drums, the Noise Eater hardware’s advanced onboard technology is like no other drum hardware available, and is a perfect match for Roland’s industry-leading V-Drums.

One of the major advantages of Roland’s V-Drums is easy volume control and the ability to practice quietly with headphones. But if you live in an apartment, condo, or small house, you may encounter situations where you need to quiet your V-Drums down even further to avoid disturbing others. Now, we have a powerful solution to these problem situations. With the new KT-9 Kick Trigger Pedal and FD-9 Hi-Hat Controller, you can dramatically reduce the operational noise of playing V-Drums with no sacrifice in feel or playability.
