Excellent video! I want to know some tricks or how pass my samples in logic x to my Spd.

That's a good suggestion. Quickest tip I can give - Roland doesn't like the format of Logic's .wav file it outputs. So if you export your samples from Logic as a .wav, and then load them in iTunes and convert them to wave in iTunes - the Roland will be happy with your samples. (I realize now this is super confusing to type haha).

To use the SPD-SX with your computer, you are probably in best shape if you connect the pad via MIDI into your computer. This gives you the most control and flexibility with what you record. You will need an audio interface to do this, but other than that it is fairly simple.

Tim hopefully you are still responding these days as I know this is an older video now - I am in 3 bands which all use backing tracks or clicks, and various effects separate from each other. I have been looking into this to make firing off backtracks reliable and easy, as well as programming snare bombs, electronics, kick triggering, etc all the fun stuff. My question is - can I set up “pages” for each band so that each “page” is that bands own backtracks linked to the pads and whatnot? Secondly - if I ran roland triggers independently into this - are those considered add ons or are those just cloned off of the pads? Meaning, can I have 9 pads and a kick trigger? OR is 9 outputs all you get, one pad would have my kick sample and be “linked” to my kick trigger? Thanks!

So Roland made the SPD-S before the SPD-SX and you can probably find used SPD-S pads for $150. Or you can find a used SPD-SX for cheaper. I know Yamaha and Alesis make similar products - but I've never used them so I can't speak to the quality.

@TimBuell 5 жыл бұрын

I wouldn't try that. You MIGHT be able to get that to work. But I would honestly just carry a separate little mixer (behrenger makes good/cheap mixers) that have 3 or 4 inputs. That will give you a lot more flexibility on building a mix for yourself and sending stuff to FOH.

@TimBuell 5 жыл бұрын

Since you need to hear the SPD-SX and your laptop in your headphones at the same time, I would say that getting a tiny little mixer (Behringer Xenyx 502 is $40 new). That will allow you to hear both in your headphones at the same time. And having a little "problem solver" mixer like that is never a bad thing.

That is honestly a better problem than them being too quiet. If they are too loud I would just turn them down on the SPD unit. Every venue/room you play in might need a slightly different volume adjustment as rooms that have a lot of bass build up will need less gain from your low end samples and rooms that are very harsh will probably require you to drop the volume of your high end snaps/claps/etc.

We had an "acoustic band" here, at an acoustic little festival, small stage, small audience, and one guy asked me where he could plug in his amp. Result: The band had no guitar player for that gig xD Idiots can play games with themselves, not me. If your "acoustic" guitar needs an amp, think about it... and ask your parents, if the f.. under the influence lol

Most drummers can’t play Cajon. They can botch it up and kinda sound like something. But cajon is for percussionist. You’re not a cajon player because you played a pop pattern on it. Like a kit, you need technique and skills to play a cajon.

@TimBuell 5 жыл бұрын

Absolutely agree! Cajon is an amazing instrument when played by someone who is using proper technique and playing a cajon for cajon's sake, not someone who is trying to make a cajon sound like a drum set. I should have made that more clear. You are totally right.

Play the thing

pick up your drum sticks, the lonely drum pad sitting next to you takes all the potential entertainment value out of this vid.

I hear ya. I newer videos I've made a point to play the thing a bit more haha. But the main purpose is conveying the information and hopefully inspiring someone to use the SPD for a new purpose. But trust me. I hear ya - to much gabbing is boring haha.

Hey! Good question. It is so I can hear the sounds coming from the SPD-SX.

@@TimBuell I'm thinking of using one for a practice kit, instead of a drum monitor. ie 2 kicks, 1 snare. Think it would be good for that?

Cool video except all the animosity towards the cajon! I get the opposite experience. Everyone thinks my cajon sounds like a drum set! Nuances make or break the music.

@TimBuell 3 жыл бұрын

Agreed! I have ZERO nuance on a Cajon (as do most drummers I see in Nashville playing them) so I decided to leverage an "instrument" I already had instead of go that route. But fully agree that when played with nuance and skill - Cajons can sound amazing. I'm just NOT that player haha.

@@TimBuell that's a shame (not about you but your statement about Nashville drummers in general). You'd think across the board more would use it but to each their own I guess. One DOES NOT have to play a Cajon but they are extremely versatile instruments for use in the modern medium. I appreciate your response. All the best.
