Roland SPD-SX/Pro
The Roland SPD-SX (and SPD-SX Pro) is the industry-standard sampling pad for live drummers and percussionists. With its 9 velocity-sensitive pads, sample import capability, and click/backing track outputs, the SPD-SX is essential for bands that use electronic elements alongside acoustic drums.
How to Use Roland SPD-SX/Pro with Gigmeister
Add "Roland SPD-SX/Pro" in Gigmeister and set the MIDI channel to 10 (the standard percussion channel). The SPD-SX supports up to 200 kit selections via Program Change. Assign different kits to each song — an 80s drum kit for the retro number, a modern pop kit for the opener — and Gigmeister switches kits automatically as you advance through the setlist.
