What playing on your Roland V71 looks like

Every hit on your pads lands on a lane. The notes come down in time with the recording — this is Enter Sandman by Metallica.

Beatfall — the notes fall to the line, each drum on its own lane, every hit judged on time, early or late.

Or read the notation — the same part written out, with a playhead you play to.

Slow it down to 50% or 75%, or play the Easy level.
Trainer teaches a song part by part, from 70% up to full speed.
Every run ranked, with your progress kept in your account.

How to connect your Roland V71 to your computer

Plug in the Roland V71 module's USB port to your Mac or PC, and switch the kit on.
Open DRUMY in Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Opera, and allow MIDI when the browser asks.
Hit a pad — its lane lights up. Kick, snare, hi-hat, toms and cymbals are mapped already.
A pad in the wrong lane? Open Setup drums and hit it to give it the right drum.

Hear the song and your Roland V71 together

Over USB: the Roland V71 module can play your computer's sound. Choose it as the computer's sound output, plug your headphones into the module, and you hear the song and your kit together through one cable.
Over Bluetooth: pair the computer (or phone) with the Roland V71 module and choose it as the sound output. Bluetooth adds a little delay — run Calibrate by tapping once in DRUMY's menu and the notes line up with what you hear.
With a cable: run a 3.5 mm cable from the computer's headphone socket into the module's Aux / Mix In, and wear your headphones on the module. No delay at all.

Roland V71 with DRUMY: questions

Does the Roland V71 work with DRUMY?

Yes. The Roland V71 sends MIDI over USB, which DRUMY reads straight away in Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Opera on a Mac or PC — nothing to install.

Which cable do I need for the Roland V71?

The USB cable that connects the module to a computer (it carries MIDI). Some cables only charge — if nothing happens, try another.

Why can't I hear my Roland V71 and the song together?

DRUMY plays the song from the computer; your kit makes its own sound in the module. Put both in one pair of headphones with USB audio, with Bluetooth, or with a cable into the module's Aux In.

My Roland V71 pads land on the wrong drum. How do I fix it?

Open Setup drums in DRUMY and hit the pad: it takes the drum you choose. Rim and cross-stick hits can be set to the snare if your snare has one zone.
