Roland RMP-5 Connecting Other Pads

Using the RMP-5 with Additional Pads

You can connect other Roland V-Drums Series pads as well.

Depending on the trigger parameters, you can use two pads, or a single rim-capable pad.

Because each pad has its own individual characteristics, you must first set the “trigger types” that

correspond to the pad you are using in order for it to function correctly.
