Description

Key features of the Roland SPD-SX PRO sampling pad

  • Professional sampling pad with 9 velocity-sensitive zones and customizable LEDs
  • 32 GB of internal memory for loading up to 44 hours of stereo audio
  • 4.3-inch color display and intuitive interface for stage and studio use
  • Extensive connectivity: multiple outputs, trigger inputs, USB, and MIDI for complete integration

A high-end successor to the SPD-SX

The Roland SPD-SX PRO takes everything that made the legendary SPD-SX so successful and takes it to the next level. Designed to meet the demands of professional musicians, it retains the compactness and reliability of the original model while incorporating 16 times more memory, a color display, advanced audio routing, and optimized stage visibility thanks to its configurable LEDs. The flagship of the range, it stands out as the most comprehensive sampling pad ever designed by Roland.

A tool designed for demanding performers and creators

The SPD-SX PRO is aimed at drummers, hybrid percussionists, DJs, and live musicians who are looking for a powerful and flexible solution for triggering samples, loops, backing tracks, or effects in real time. With its intuitive ergonomics, multicolor LEDs, and stage-ready durability, it becomes the heart of any modern setup, both on stage and in the studio. Its multiple routing allows each sound to be sent to a separate output for professional mixing and total control during live performances.

Features designed for performance

Every detail of the SPD-SX PRO has been designed to optimize responsiveness and fluidity of play. Its new sensors offer precise detection and excellent comfort, even when mounted at an angle. Transitions between kits are seamless, ideal for live song changes. The dedicated SPD-SX PRO App makes it easy to manage samples, create kits, and transfer files via USB. Finally, the four built-in effects engines offer a creative and professional sound palette to sculpt your sounds as you wish.

Very good product. Excellent sound quality, quick handling, many possibilities but you have to spend quite a bit of time to master everything well, for that the manual is very well done. One drawback that will surely be fixed with future updates, you can only use one effect per pad plus a master effect. In my case, I would have liked to put a delay and a reverb on a snare and compression on output, but apparently not possible. After all, I received it recently so maybe I missed something, but for now I haven't found the trick. On the other hand, about fifteen quality effects are available. The output routing is great too, the pad response is great. The backlighting is very useful. I still have to try it with triggers, there are quite a few inputs, it is MIDI controllable, a mega configurable metronome, and I forget so much because there are so many parameters but honestly very complete, quality, well thought out especially for live and above all a pure sound!...

I haven't dug into it yet to see everything I can do with the spd pro but so far it looks great. You can do a lot of things so it's necessarily a bit complicated to learn to use at the beginning.
