The Roland SPD-SX Sampling Pad is the ultimate percussive sampling instrument. It offers powerful sample creation and playback features, innovative audio-capturing capabilities, expressive playability, and three multi-effects engines. Whether you use it with an acoustic or electronic V-Drums kit, a percussion setup, DJ booth, or keyboard rig, the Roland SPD-SX is the perfect addition. It can be used in various settings, such as live performances, recording studios, pre-production suites, or dance clubs. Plus, it comes with a purpose-built bag for easy and safe transport.
The SPD-SX builds upon the proven concepts of its predecessor and takes them to a new level. It is equipped with nine highly sensitive rubber pads, two independent real-time control knobs, and four dedicated effect buttons. With Rolands advanced triggering technology, you can expect accuracy and dynamic performance. The large backlit LCD provides easy-to-read data in any environment. Each pad has an LED that illuminates to indicate its status, and when you trigger sample phrases, the LEDs remain lit to show which pads are active. The red divider lines help you see the pad zones clearly on stage.
Drummers and percussionists increasingly need audio samples in their performances, and the SPD-SX meets these requirements. It offers features such as individual click output routing, dedicated volume controls, Pad Check function, and individual Sub Out. Additionally, it has three onboard multi-effects units – one master unit and two assignable units per kit. You can perform like a DJ in real time using the front-panel controls, adjusting the filter, delay, short looper, and user-assignable effect.
The SPD-SX has more to offer than meets the eye, including Multi-Pad Sampling. You can stream audio from an external audio player or computer and strike each pad at the start and end points to automatically truncate and assign the sample to that pad. This feature allows you to create multi-sampled phrases and pad maps quickly and easily. The SPD-SX also includes 4GB of internal memory, USB ports for importing audio files, and the SPD-SX Wave Manager software for importing, assigning, and organizing samples.
