Roland BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad
The Roland BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad is a professional trigger pad from Roland. Delivering accurate positioning and responsivity, this pad is a great way to let your creativity flourish. Easily apply the pad to the side of any acoustic or electric drum to achieve a vast array of playing possibilities from triggering backing tracks to adding a tambourine sample to your playing.

The small sizing of this Roland BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad reduces the need to carry a large drum pad from venue to venue, providing easy transportation. Thanks to its small scale, this pad can also be positioned in a place suited to you, ensuring you can achieve a comfortable yet accurate playing experience. This bar trigger pad is simply ideal for any drummer wanting to add an electronic element to their playing.

Bring New Sounds to your Kit

Once installed and connected to a sound source (such as the SPD-SX sampling pad), the BT-1 will enable you to play with new drum sounds or entire backing tracks all from behind your trusty acoustic drum kit or V-Drums Electronic Kit. For acoustic kit owners, the Roland BT-1 bar trigger pad offers a simple and affordable introduction to using electronics without jumping headfirst into the world of electronic drum kits. The BT-1 can also be used to add more triggers to an existing Roland V-Drums kit, saving space on the drum rack.

Curved shape ensures easy adaptability

The BT-1 has a curved shape that mounts on the side of an acoustic drum or V-Drums pad. The BT-1 will easily adapt to your existing drum kit layout. The BT-1 is great for playing sounds in a Roland V-Drums module or SPD-series percussion pad, but it can also act as a controller for a variety of functions, such as start/stop of backing songs, phrase loops, and much more. The superior sensors within the BT-1 are tuned to eliminate crosstalk when playing surrounding drums – so you’ll only hear it when you hit it.

Easily integrate electronics into your drum setup

The BT-1 is an easy and affordable way to integrate electronics with your acoustic kit. Unlike large round pads and inconvenient foot switches, the BT-1 blends seamlessly with your kit while increasing its capabilities. It can be mounted to your acoustic drums (from 8 inch to 18 inch diameter) or to any rod-type mount (from 8mm to 12.5mm).

Add triggers without reconfiguring your set-up

Because the BT-1 can be mounted to your existing acoustic drums and V-Pads, you can easily add additional triggers without needing to move drums and cymbals to accommodate them. The compact design of the BT-1 provides a solid playing surface to continuously expand the expressive power of your Roland percussion rig.
