• • • • > Classic SPD-20 Sounds—and MoreThe SPD-20 has been embraced by thousands of players as a primary instrument, and they rely on its versatile sound set for performing every day. The OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO retains every sound from the original percussion pad while also providing an impressive selection of new ones to choose from. In addition, EQ, compression, and three onboard effects engines—each with 38 multi-effects types—can be applied to a single instrument, further broadening the sonic possibilities.Authentic Sounds from Around the WorldThe OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO’s new sounds give players what they need to meet today’s diverse live performance and studio production demands. Sampled in the highest quality, these premium sounds allow percussionists to authentically cover Asian, African, Latin, and many other world music styles. Traditional drum kit sounds are also on tap, including high-end acoustic drums and cymbals originally developed for the TD-27 V-Drums sound module. In total, more than 900 instruments are available for musical exploration.Real-Time Sound Editing for Expressive PerformancesThe OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO comes with 100 great-sounding preset kits that are ready to play. But you can also customize them to perfectly fit your personal style and the music you’re playing. The backlit LCD and direct-access buttons support real-time editing of instrument sounds as you perform, and multiple sounds can be layered on any one pad using the Pad Link function to create exciting new tones and textures. Additionally, the kit chain function lets you line up kits to match your set list, making it easy to call up the exact one you need during a performance.Expand Beyond the Built-In PadsTo complement its eight sensitive rubber pads, the OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO features four dual-trigger inputs and a dedicated hi-hat control input. This allows you to build an expanded percussion setup with a variety of optional Roland trigger pads, including mesh-head V-Pads, V-Cymbals, and the BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad. And by connecting a Roland kick pad and hi-hat control pedal, you can transform the OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO into a powerhouse mini drum kit with rock-solid feel and continuous open/closed hi-hat sounds.Enhanced Performance FeaturesWith the Version 1.10 update, the OCTAPAD SPD-20 PRO continues to evolve with newly added features. The Pad Link function has been made more powerful, with layering possibilities increased from four sounds to 32. You can also set independent transmit and receive settings for Pad Link to extend your creative range. In addition, external footswitches can now be assigned to increase/decrease parameter values, with the current value shown on the display for instant feedback.

Lush Pad SynthesizerA pad synthesizer with soulPads is a thriving and organic pad synthesizer. It consists of a wavetable synth with a noise/grain generator and a high cut filter. With a carefully developed ”wobbler” that detunes the waveforms and makes very small inconsistencies to several internal parameters and a nice sounding chorus, this synthesizer is able to create some really interesting and non-statical pad sounds.Anatomy1. Wave selector - Select two waveforms, and morph between them by dragging the slider.2. Wobble - Adds some analog character with de-tune/filter inaccuracy.3. Grain / Noise - Drag horizontally to add white noise and upwards to add some more irrational noise/grain.4. Filter / Envelope / Chorus - Various toys in the toolbox for shaping the sound further.Features Filter, Attack, and Volume can be modulated by velocity Controllable grit/grain level, sampled from a real Hammond organ with a broken tone wheel Controllable wobble factor that adds analogue unpredictability 30 handcrafted presets created by professional musiciansSystem Requirements macOS 10.10 or later (optimized for the M1-processor) Windows 7 SP1 or later AU, VST-2, VST-3, AAXAny references to any brands on this site/page, including reference to brands and instruments, are provided for description purposes only.

MIDI Program changes. The last MIDI Program message sent is remembered so a corresponding LED button illuminates correctly, even if Program was sent via, for example, the transpose buttons or the Setup menu. You can also assign the 8 pads to send Program messages so you’ll have instant access to 17 buttons without changing preset or pad map. Used with Nektar DAW Integration the LED buttons indicate status for a number of parameters. In Instrument mode, an instrument plugin’s switch parameters can be learned with the LED telling you when it’s on or off. In Mixer mode the LED buttons control Mute and Solo, with the LED colors indicating the corresponding channels current status.PADS For groove and beat creation, Impact LX88+’s 8 velocity sensitive pads make life easy. Calibrated to trigger at a light touch, finger drumming is suddenly well within reach with a nice and even velocity response. Each pad can be assigned any MIDI note number or MIDI cc message for use as MIDI trigger or toggle buttons. But the best part is the “Pad Learn“ feature, which allows you to just select a pad, play the note or drum sound you want on the keyboard and assignment is done. No complex menus for a task that’s essential to getting the most out of your pads. Assignments are stored over power cycling so you don’t lose your settings when you switch your system off for the night. In addition, 4 pad map locations can store your settings for

Drum pads. You can connect the audio outputs to an amplifier or PA system via instrument cables. Most drum pads also include a headphone input.How do I load my own samples?If your drum pad has the capability of loading custom samples, this is generally done via a USB drive or SD card.Check the specifications of your device before loading samples. Some require specific formats and bitrates (e.g., 16-bit WAV files).What’s the difference between high-end and low-end pads?The number one difference is build quality. You can see a notable difference in sturdiness and quality in higher-end pads. This can make a big difference when gigging regularly. As mentioned previously, low-quality pads can trigger cross-talk and other unwanted problems.On-board sounds of higher-end pads are generally of much better quality. Another major difference is both the features and speed of the device, particularly with regard to switching kits while loading external samples.How do I record my electronic drum pad?If you want to record your electronic drum pad on your computer, then you will generally need an audio interface. You connect the outputs from your pad to the inputs on the interface via instrument cables. The interface usually connects to your computer via USB.You can also connect most electronic drum pads to computers and other music gear via MIDI. Therefore you can trigger drum sounds from music production software instead of using the on-board sounds on your drum pad.Can I connect other e-drum pads to my sample pad?Check the external inputs of the pad. You may be able to connect other e-drum and cymbal pads, such as rubber or mesh pads directly. Some devices also include a specific input for a hi-hat pedal, which you can use the open/close functionality of the hats.I usually recommend adding a kickpad if possible.VerdictMy top pick as the best electronic drum pad is the Roland SPD-SX Pro. It’s the long-awaited follow-up to Roland’s previous industry-standard pad. I consider it the best despite stiff competition from Alesis with their Strike Multipad.The best affordable electronic drum pad is the Alesis SamplePad Pro, but it does have a few quirks, so
