Unlike the original Octapad PAD-8, which was strictly a MIDI controller, the Octapad SPD-30 is a controller that's packed with its own internal bank of sounds. Fifty kits are built into the SPD-30 - essential sounds that span a musical universe of styles. You can customise the sounds with the onboard controls for tuning, muffling, attack, pitch sweep, and more. It's like having a truckload of customisable drum and percussion instruments in one portable package.
Based on Roland's world-leading effects technology, the SPD-30's multi-effects engine will take your performances to another level. There are 30 types of internal multi-effects onboard, plus EQ, limiter, and seven Ambience types.
The onboard Phrase Loop function lets you instantly create layered loops and phrases. You can record and store 50 phrases internally, with each containing up to three layers. You can also save your phrase data on your USB Memory.
The Octapad SPD-30 benefits from Roland's most advanced V-Drum triggering technology. Each pad is a separate, isolated unit, providing the ultimate in sensitivity with complete crosstalk rejection. In addition, you can connect four dual-trigger inputs plus a hi-hat controller (compatible with Roland FD-8, VH-11) to create a mini drum set with external pads (Roland KD / PD / PDX / CY series), as well as to accept triggers from acoustic drums through Roland's RT series.
The Roland PDS-20 Percussion Pad Stand is the sturdiest, safest way to mount your Roland SPD or HandSonic percussion instrument. Featuring larger, rubber feet and a specially designed mounting plate, this new improved model provides more robust, more precise positioning for your electronic peripherals than ever before.
Its all-new, hatched clamp design offers unbeatable flexibility of movement, while the PDS-20's thicker, double-braced tripod legs guarantee stability in any situation. The mounting plate sports a durable, coated finish, while the stand's dazzling, chrome-plated finish looks the part under the spotlights. With easy height adjustment, even while seated at the kit, the Roland PDS-20 makes mounting your percussion pad simple and reliable.
