Thanks, this is super useful. The menus of the SPD are vast! Just picked up a PG Spark Live, SPD plugged into, with mic and guitars etc. Sweet one/two man band set up.

You're very welcome mate! Sounds like a nice setup there mate 👌

I literally have not looked at a menu yet and I'm getting pretty far by just dabbling, but my ADD gets the best of me!...so thank you for this very useful information, subscribe and thumbs up mate, I'm sure I will be hitting you up for questions! also...I have found Roland's support team to be very helpful and within a day they have solved numerous problems I have encountered. Thank you for you knowledge, cheers!

Hi Rob, cheers mate, glad you found them useful! Thanks for watching and subscribing 🙂👍

Thank you for posting this video! The instructions are very concise and easy to understand. I don’t feel nearly as intimidated about trying to make a loop with this sample pad as I did 8 minutes ago. I’m most definitely going to try my hand at a few loops after I’m finished practicing my drums drums. 🤣 Either way, great video. Very easy to understand.

Thanks so much! Really appreciate you commenting, best of luck with the loops! :)

Thanks a lot for this video. I'm glad it's possible to adjust start/end/loop points, I couldn't find the info anywhere :) I'm thinking of getting an SPD SX Pro. About recording from pads, does that mean you can resample anything you play on the SPD SX Pro, without being connected to a computer or recorder? That'd be amazing. Does everything gets recorded, like even fx tweaks etc? What's the maximum recording lenght? I'm excited about the Pad Sequencer. At first I thought you could load any sample for each of the 16 steps and repeat onto each pad, then realized it was only samples from current pads, so I was bit disapointed but I guess I could quickly switch to another presets to have another set of pad sequenced samples. Can you have several pad sequencers? Would be cool to have different motifs on each pad, uncluding odd polyrhytmic stuff if some are set to 3 and other 2, etc... Cheers

Greetings from Canada! Thanks for the informative video! t-minus 3 weeks and this pad will be in my hands! I claim subscriber slot#285!

Heya, thanks so much for subscribing, more content coming very soon, so glad you enjoyed the video 🙂

How can you lower and increase the tempo on a roland spd-sx pro please

Great hack, but man would it be convenient if they implemented an actual multi-track looper in a firmware upgrade. Given that Boss(/Roland) already leads the looping game, it's not like they don't have the expertise. Maybe they're worried it'll step on the toes of the RC-series, but if I were Roland I'd be worried about the Korg MPS-10 with its extra pad, full-fledged looper and round robin capabilities. Shoot, even the Alesis Strike Multipad (from 2018!) has a looper.

Yeah it sure would be useful, I don't know why they didn't honestly, I'm sure the SPD-SX could do it 🤔🤣

Hey just purchased one today and still working out the looping side of things, this was very helpful. Is there also a way to record another sample layer over the recorded sample? Or is there an other looping method where you can play one pad and let it loop and play another pad to layer over it?

Hiya, so glad it was helpful for you. I would imagine you could create a loop, and then trigger that back in the recording mode and play other pads over the top of it? If that makes sense? 😊

can you possibly connect a guitar (Boss loop station) for example to the back of the unit and trigger a loop that way?

Thanks! Can the sounds received on the audio-in port be looped or is that just for backing tracks?

You could record them using the audio input and then set them to loop mate 🙂😎

It's a pity no quantize function

How do you get to tempo sync on a Roland spd sx pro?

Hi Antony, I have a video about that here...kzread.info/dash/bejne/haJqqtaEgqvgaZc.html Unfortunately there is currently no way of tempo syncing

Thanks for the info

It's mental how much they charge for this device, most overpriced piece of equipment in general.

I think the prices have come down quite a bit since its release, I think because each gen of the Spd lasts for so long it's pretty reasonable if you use it a lot 🙂
