Rolands original Octapad profoundly changed the landscape of electronic percussion. The size of a briefcase, the Octapad offered drummers and percussionists the equivalent of an entire electronic rig in one self-contained unit a new level of convenience and expression. Today, decades later, an exciting new chapter in Octapad history begins. The Octapad SPD-30 blends the worlds most essential electronic percussion sounds with the latest triggering technology in a road-tough package thats ready for the most demanding performers.
Sound Bank
Unlike the original Octapad PAD-8, which was strictly a MIDI
controller, the Octapad SPD-30 is a controller thats packed with its
own internal bank of sounds. Fifty kits are built into the SPD-30
essential sounds that span a musical universe of styles. You can
customise the sounds with the onboard controls for tuning, muffling,
attack, pitch sweep, and more. Its like having a truckload of
customisable drum and percussion instruments in one portable package.
Multi-Effects
Based on Rolands world-leading effects technology, the SPD-30s
multi-effects engine will take your performances to another level.
There are 30 types of internal multi-effects onboard, plus EQ, limiter,
and seven Ambience types.
Phrase Loop Function
The onboard Phrase Loop function lets you instantly create layered
loops and phrases. You can record and store 50 phrases internally, with
each containing up to three layers. You can also save your phrase data
as WAV files to export for music production on your personal computer.
Advanced Triggering Technology
The Octapad SPD-30 benefits from Roland?s most advanced V-Drum
triggering technology. Each pad is a separate, isolated unit, providing
the ultimate in sensitivity with complete crosstalk rejection. In
addition, you can connect four dual-trigger inputs plus a hi-hat
controller (compatible with Roland FD-8, VH-11) to create a mini drum
set with external pads (Roland KD / PD / PDX / CY series), as well as
to accept triggers from acoustic drums through Rolands RT series.
