Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. If the Pro model is a bit rich for your blood, there’s still plenty to love about the red ‘Special Edition’ of the original SPD-SX, which features a hefty 16GB of storage space and is currently a decent chunk cheaper than the new pro model. Say you’ve identified a particular ambient bird sound from your bedroom window that really adds to the feel of one of your songs. You would record it and program into the pad so that you can then trigger it live, without having to move from the kit. Perhaps you also want a choral part to play over the bridge of a particular song? Queue it up on pad two and, when the bridge rolls round, you can summon those angels with a strike of the assigned pad. There are other pads with qualities this module doesn’t have, but overall the Roland SPD-SX ‘Special Edition’ is amongst the best of the best. The combination of high build quality, intuitive design and excellent functionality means this is a great alternative to the Pro model.

To the untrained eye, the Pro model looks an awful lot like the standard SPD-SX, but there have been some significant cosmetic and performance enhancements that have earned it the ‘pro’ moniker. Firstly - and most obviously - are the customisable LEDs for each pad, which make it easier to navigate the pads in low stage light, and help you more easily identify which samples have been assigned to which pad. The Samplepad is Alesis' latest offering in affordable electronic percussion instruments. The Samplepad is a 4-pad trigger pad which contains 25 built-in sounds.It even features the ability to output MIDI data so you can trigger samples on a sampler, computer, or any other MIDI compatible module. They're not just great for drummers either. Perhaps you’re a live DJ with a nice loop going. Why not spice it up by stepping away from the booth and playing a percussion break? You can then add effects and layers to colour it however you want, or loop it to keep the break going while you mix something else. What is a multipad?

The Roland SPD::One series is a curveball, that’s for sure (why the second colon?). The series is made up of four individual units, each with a specific function. They’re a little over-priced and they don’t have line-inputs, yet there’s plenty to love here. With SamplePad Pro, there’s no limit to your sonic creativity. Over 200 carefully-crafted drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds are built-in - each created by the professional Alesis sound design team. These sounds are arranged into 10 on-board preset drum kits for instant access during performance. Load Your Own!The Alesis Sample Pad Pro comes pre-loaded with over 200 individual drum and percussion sounds that are versatile and realistic sounding. These sounds are definitely a good platform to get started with into the world of hybrid drumming.

If you'relooking for a dedicated sample triggerthe Alesis Samplepad is ideal. It's low cost, rugged and functional, with velocity sensitivity and an SD card slot for use without a distinct sampler unit.The Samplepad is the ultimate compact sampler module, ideal for enhancing your live performances with highly-creative sampled sounds. Here's what Alesis say about the Samplepad:The emergence of hybrid drumming – that is merging acoustic and electronic drums to enhance and expand your sound – has meant everyone from bedroom players to pro drummers are looking for electronic elements to add to their kits. Some opt for an array of triggers or individual pads positioned around the kit, whereas others prefer a more economical approach in terms of space, convenience and affordability. That’s where the best electronic drum pads in this guide come in. Still with us? Okay, let’s get into it. With the exceptional high quality we’ve come to expect from Nord, the 3P displays a vast array of sonic capabilities. It has 200 sounds and a large variety of modulators, oscillators, reverbs, filters and various other FX on-board. You can use these to alter specific aspects of each sound and save them as your own in one of the 400 available banks. There is also a sequencer app for iOS, called Nord Beat, which will make beat-makers and producers feel at home. The Mute Groups feature is another useful addition, allowing a sample playing on one pad to be terminated when another pad in the same group is hit — particularly useful if you have, say, synth pad chords on the different pads. You could also set up a mute group for open and closed hi–hat sounds so the closed hat cuts off the open one. Sounds Looking to add some custom sounds to your performance? SamplePad 4 is the solution you have been looking for. Load up a standard SD card with your select samples, insert your SD card into SamplePad 4 and assign your samples to the pads - it’s that easy!
