Add Sampling to Any Percussion Setup!
The SPD-S Sampling Pad is a simple and
affordable way to tap into the power of
sampling. Six pads and three edge triggers
allow drummers to trigger CD-quality samples
and create phrase loops complete with
pro-quality effects.
Integrates easily with your kit
Choose from pre-loaded or
sampled sounds
Powerful sound creation tools
Expandable and customizable
A great alternative to acoustic triggers and a rack
sampler, the SPD-S lets you play up to eight sounds
using six durable rubber pads and three superb-feeling
edge triggers. There are no complicated settings to make.
Just record a sound, assign it to a pad and go. Up to 12
minutes of sampling is provided in Long mode, along
with CD-quality sampling and easy editing including
Truncate and Trigger Mode functions.
With room for 399 User waveforms, the SPD-S can store
plenty of samples. Better still, there are also 181 ready-to-
play waveforms pre-loaded into User memory. These
sounds are unique to the SPD-S and include a variety of
acoustic and electronic drums, percussion, sound effects
and phrase loops that can be combined with user samples
to create the ultimate drum kit. A sampling CD is also
included, making it easy to expand the onboard sounds.
With 30 multi-effects algorithms and a unique ambience
effect, the SPD-S offers endless sound-sculpting tools.
Just add an effect and resample the output for quick and
easy triggering! Using the Phrase Maker function, you can
create custom phrase loops by resampling a pattern being
triggered from the pads. And tweaking a sound or effect
during performance is easy—just twist the front-panel
knobs or use an optional expression pedal.
The SPD-S has a stereo input and can accommodate up to
two trigger units for playing a drum pad in either a head or
head/rim configuration. And with MIDI In and Out, it makes
a great controller and module as well. Drummers will also
appreciate being able to assign two waveforms per pad
and switch them via velocity or footswitch. The pads and
the optional footswitch also make for an easy way to stop
sounds, switch Patches and turn effects On or Off.
MULTI-EFFECTS SAMPLING MODE/TIME
Convenient CompactFlash storage
PRE-LOADED SOUNDS
The SPD-S works with readily available
CompactFlash media—making it easy to
expand the onboard sampling time, store
custom sounds, and
even import or
export .WAV/AIFF
files using your
Mac or PC.
*Please contact your authorized Roland dealer regarding compatibility of CompactFlash media.
Connect the source to the Input
jack and set the Mic/Line switch
accordingly.
Press PATCH to enter Patch mode
and use the [-]/[+] buttons to select
the destination.
Press SAMPLE and strike the
pad where you want the
sample to go.
Press SAMPLE and strike the
pad where you want the
sample to go.
Press START/STOP and start the
source. The SPD-S automatically
begins sampling when the input
exceeds the threshold. Press
START/STOP again when finished.
