Re: Re: Hardware Drum Looper Recommedations(Paul)




>it but the Roland SPD-S is a pretty nifty device.

hi Paul.

I tried one of these in the shop.

It so nearly does what I wanted.

I found the pads somewhat insensitive,
especially the " 3 rim-kinda-shot pads ".
(that's probably not a problem for "normal" sized sticks and
the average drummer though)

I couldn't find a way to do a controllable hi-hat on it ( and Roland
just didn't answer when I asked, which was the main deciding factor for
forgetting about this unit)

It's 8 way polyphonic, but only at lo-quality.
At high quality it's only 4 way polyphonic, which isn't really enough.

The looping (=resampling) isn't geared towards live performance.

...but otherwise it just looked so promising :-(

Glad you got it to work for you.
