Roland SPD-SX
Roland SPD-SX is a multi-pad percussion instrument with 2 GB of onboard sampling memory and three powerful effects engines, providing a simple, portable, and affordable way to add sampling to any performance setup for drummers, percussionists and other musicians. The Roland SPD-SX features new Multi-Pad Sampling, a quick and easy way to capture, truncate and assign samples to pads by simply striking pads at the appropriate start/end points of a particular sample.
