Key Features
Product Ref: 280502
Once installed and connected to a sound source (such as the SPD-SX sampling pad), the BT-1 will enable you to play with new drum sounds or entire backing tracks, all from behind your trusty acoustic drum kit or V-Drums Electronic Kit. For acoustic kit owners, the Roland BT-1 bar trigger pad offers a simple and affordable introduction to using electronics without jumping headfirst into the world of electronic drum kits. The BT-1 can also be used to add more triggers to an existing Roland V-Drums kit, saving space on the drum rack.
The BT-1 has a curved shape that mounts on the side of an acoustic drum or V-Drums pad, the BT-1 will easily adapt to your existing drum kit layout. The BT-1 is great for playing sounds in a Roland V-Drums module or SPD-series percussion pad, but it can also act as a controller for a variety of functions such as start/stop of backing songs, phrase loops, and much more. The superior sensors within the BT-1 are tuned to eliminate crosstalk when playing surrounding drums - so you'll only hear it when you hit it.
The BT-1 is an easy and affordable way to integrate electronics with your acoustic kit. Unlike large round pads and inconvenient foot switches the BT-1 blends seamlessly with your kit while increasing its capabilities. It can be mounted to your acoustic drums (from 8 inch to 18 inch diameter) or to any rod-type mount (from 8mm to 12.5mm).
Because the BT-1 can be mounted to your existing acoustic drums and V-Pads, you can easily add additional triggers without needing to move drums and cymbals to accommodate them. The compact design of the BT-1 provides a solid playing surface to continuously expand the expressive power of your Roland percussion rig.
