The Playing Field
The Roland SPD-SX is equipped with nine highly sensitive rubber pads
with two independent real-time control knobs and four dedicated effect
buttons. Roland's most advanced triggering technology ensures the
ultimate in accuracy and fully dynamic performance, while a large
backlit LCD provides easy-to-read data in all varieties of environments.
Each pad has a companion LED that illuminates to show the pad's status.
When you trigger sample phrases, the LEDs remain lit to show you which
pads are in play and which are not. In addition, the LEDs change
illumination strength according to audio-level activity (similar to
level meters on a mixing board). The high-contrast red divider lines
help you see the pad zones clearly onstage.
Improved Playability and Functionality
Today, increasing numbers of drummers and percussionists need to
incorporate audio samples into their performance. The Roland SPD-SX will
satisfy their increasing requirements with essential features such as
individual click output routing, dedicated volume controls, Pad Check
function, individual Sub Out, and more.
Onboard Effects
The Roland SPD-SX has three multi-effects units onboard: one master
unit and two units that are assignable per kit. The master effects
engine lets you perform in real time like a DJ using the dedicated
front-panel controls. Get your hands on the filter, delay, short looper,
and user-assignable effect - all of which can be creatively adjusted
with the four front-panel buttons and two control knobs.
Multi-Pad Sampling
There's much more to the Roland SPD-SX than meets the eye. A
powerful-yet-friendly lineup of features has been built into this little
powerhouse, such as Multi-Pad Sampling. While audio streams in from an
external audio player or computer (via Audio In or USB), simply strike
each pad at the appropriate start/end points, and the sample will be
automatically truncated and assigned to that pad. It's a fast, friendly
way to create multi-sampled phrases and pad maps.
SPD-SX Wave Manager Software Included
The Roland SPD-SX's generous internal memory (2 GB) lets you store
and carry your entire sample library inside. With no external memory
required, you can house approximately 360 minutes of audio (10,000
files) at 16-bit, 44.1 kHz, mono. The built-in USB ports let you
directly import audio files from USB flash memory. The bundled SPD-SX
Wave Manager software app lets you import audio files directly from
computer via USB, assign the samples to each pad, and organize the
thousands of samples efficiently.
