Roland SPD-SX Pro Sampling Pad

Professional drummers have put the SPD-SX through the ultimate trial by fire since 2011, and now the SPD-SX PRO takes that battle-tested legacy to the next level. Built from years of road testing and extensive user feedback, this top-tier sampling pad delivers the professional enhancements that demanding performers have been requesting. The unit features customisable multi-colour LED lights that illuminate all nine pads on dark stages, eliminating the need for gaffer tape, while a large 4.3-inch colour display with backlit controls ensures lightning-fast sound selection even in low-light conditions.

The SPD-SX PRO’s nine super-durable pads include three redesigned shoulder pads with improved sensor structure for increased sensitivity and consistent response regardless of mounting angle. Enhanced crosstalk protection prevents accidental triggering, while the massive 32 GB internal memory holds nearly 44 hours of crystal-clear 48 kHz audio. The unit comes loaded with 1,550 high-quality samples and 200 kits straight out of the box, with automatic format conversion for WAV, AIFF, and MP3 files saving valuable setup time.

Connectivity options include balanced stereo master outputs plus four assignable mono outputs for flexible mixing scenarios, while support for up to eight external triggers expands your performance setup. The dedicated SPD-SX PRO App for Windows and Mac simplifies sample management and kit editing, complemented by onboard features like a 16-step sequencer, built-in effects engine, and real-time WAV recording capabilities. With its bulletproof construction and comprehensive feature set, the SPD-SX PRO is engineered to deliver reliable performance night after night on stages from intimate clubs to major stadiums.
