All user reviews of 2/5 for the Roland SPD-SX

Hello,

I use the SPDS for 7 years (bought used via audiofanzine). I like this very ergonomic yet rugged machine.
I just bought the SPD-SX (for 1 month) to replace the SPDS and able to return my many sequences and USB inputs "line".

I use it mainly to trigger sequences tempo and sometimes as electronic drums.
Note that I am percussionist and I do not use drumkit wand. And there is the drama !!! While the SPDS is very sensitive, very easy to trigger with a finger, the SPD-SX is a real anvil, on which you have to type much harder to trigger a sound.
The sensitivity was drastically reduced and the possibility for adjustment also. Indeed, the sensitivity settings formerly available on the SPDS 9 pads do now than on the exit "trigger" of the SPD-SX.

More "phrase maker", who liked me repeat my offer acolytes of fatherly impromptu but quantized bin ... it's more possible without his computer, so it's possible.

"He exaggerates" you say ... "it gains time with famous imports into USB". Bin not that much, in fact:

I tried to rotate synchronously 2 sequences from one measurement to 120 of tempo. After 1min they were shifted. I realized, after a good time to turn around, a .WAV sequences was cut too long hair (well, I did not zoomed up on LOGIC to make my cut and it exceeded a little).
Despite forcing the assignment of the tempo of the 2 sequences to 120.0 as well as that of the kit ... nothing to do ... offset.

Morality for it to be running as the sequences are cut by line. So the time saved in USB import is lost in preparation of samples. The system, though most rudimentary of SPDS, works better and makes more mistakes.

What is the sub wave that is triggered at the same time as the main sound assigned to the same pad, since it is impossible to put this sub wave mode "loop"?
Where, on the SPDS, with sensitivity settings, it is possible to trigger two sounds on the same pad?

Good afternoon, I admit, it is convenient to strum on his computer and to name and assign the sounds on the pads
The SPD-SX is also much more ergonomic to route the sounds of the various outputs.

Anyway, with that we will have to beef up my fingers.
