Roland/V-MODA Collaboration Headphones Tailor-made for Drummers

Revel in the sound of your electronic kit like never before with Roland’s VMH-D1 headphones. Here you’ll find a superb listening experience from a pair of headphones tailor-made to squeeze every sonic nuance from your electronic drum kit. Made in conjunction with Roland and V-MODA, the VMH-D1s are fine-tuned to capture dynamic transients, rich overtones, and exhibit a wide frequency range. Aspects like form-fitting memory foam earpads and a cushioned headband keep you jamming without an inkling of discomfort. Acoustic isolation also ensures supreme focus by isolating the sound of your kit. The Roland VMH-D1 V-Drums Headphones also come with two cables for unique applications and a retainer to route the cables behind, leaving you free to rock out.

Treat yourself to the sonic quality you deserve

The first joint effort between the Roland V-Drums team and V-MODA, the VMH-D1 headphones exemplify a deep level of design sensibility geared toward capturing all the gorgeous nuances in electronic drums. The VMH-D1s boast custom 50mm drivers combined with select materials and unique mounting methods to bring you a detailed translation of your electronic kit. Boasting a wide frequency range and rich overtones, the VMH-D1s also accurately translate aggressive transients. Sweetwater has found that using the VMH-D1 headphones with Roland sound technologies like Prismatic Sound Modeling and PureAcoustic Ambience brings your kit to glorious electronic life.

The detail’s in the drums

The time to settle for a pair of passable headphones is over. With Roland VMH-D1s, you’ll find the kick tight and punchy in the bass, the snare and toms wonderfully warm and full in the midrange, and the cymbals splendidly smooth and extended in the highs. You’ll also find deep immersion in high-impact sound when custom tuning. Best of all, you get fine details like subtle overtones, realistic-sounding cymbal decay, ambience effects, and room sounds. But the detail doesn’t end there — you can revel in the high-quality sound for casual music listening, too. Many drummers use these ’phones for recording in the studio, playing to backing tracks, or practicing along with their favorite tunes. Lastly, the included detachable cables make it easy to switch from drumming mode to casual listening mode in a heartbeat.

Designed for the modern-day drummer

While designing the VMH-D1, Roland and V-MODA focused on superior comfort. They started with memory foam earpads that form fit to your head, effectively isolating extraneous noises around you and even that of the acoustic pad noise. Next, synthetic leather covering helps wick away moisture to maintain a rock-solid grip while you get into the groove. Apart from comfort, Roland and V-MODA also said goodbye to annoying cable tangle. Instead, they equip you with two sets of cables long enough to wind around and away from your equipment with plenty of slack. A cable retainer even allows you to place the cable at the back of the headphones to keep your arms and legs clear. Lastly, a hanger accessory makes for swift stowage on your kit. So, keep on drumming: your headphones won’t detract from the music again!

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Reviews

Feather weight
I can't find one thing I would change on these headphones.
How good are your ears? The quality, design and sound is over the top.
Due to apartment living, the headphone option is my only choice and these work incredible.
In fact, I ordered another pair so a friend can also listen in.
Music background: Just happy back in the swing of things due to Sweetwater!
Headphones
Lightweight, with great sound. Enjoy the flexible wiring to stay out of your way when playing.
I’m a drummer again
I recently bought a mesh head electronic drum kit after selling all my acoustic gear a while back due to some arthritis problems in my hands. The set didn't come with headphones and I didn't have a decent pair so I foubd these Rolands at Sweetwater after reading the reviews.
They arrived, I plugged them in, and suddenly I was drumming again! Noise cancellation is great and the sound of the strikes is perfect.
Music background: Amateur
Do what they promised to do
Ordered them for my daughter, the drummer in our house. She did not know anything about the headphones before she tried (and immediately loved) them for playing on her TD-17 KVX set. Her first impressions: Feel great on the head, drums sound much better, and the first thing she noticed: she doesn't hear the pads anymore, only the drum sounds. Nicely done Roland, work just as advertised.
Work for edrums
Seem a little less treble than my Sony 7506 but good spatial sound for edrums.
TD27 with Yamaha mg10 board

Tried Beyerdynamic DT770 and did not like them at all
Music background: Amateur percussionist

Simply put, modern electronic music wouldn't exist without Roland. Many of the electronic musicians here at Sweetwater cut our teeth on TR Rhythm machines and fondly remember programming our first TB-303s. We owe a good part of our careers to this amazing and innovative company. It's been fun to watch and grow right alongside Roland, as they've introduced wave after wave of revolutionary keyboards, digital pianos, and more. For example, Roland's V-Drum Kits continuously redefine the possibilities of electronic drums, beginning with SuperNATURAL technology to the latest Prismatic Sound Modeling. We're huge fans, and we'd love to tell you all about them. Whether you want a pocket-sized synth or a cutting-edge video mixer, if Roland makes it, then Sweetwater is 100% behind it.
