Hi everyone

I was wondering what electronic drum pads i could use to trigger the drum sounds on my Nord.

Could I use a V-Drum pad or a Alesis DM5 pad to trigger the sounds

Thanks

Kitten xx

Just surf to the site http://www.roland.com/products/en/HD-1/specs.html and it looks like there is a Midi Out. Then download the Manual and try to find out what instrument is sending over Midi Out. When it sends Midi notes there is a possibility it can trigger different drum modules using the NoteDetector.

you can use ANY pad to midi converter to trigger your keyboard.

for $240 you can get a Roland TMC6 Trigger to MIDI Converter

or for about $200 you could get an Alesis Octapad rippoff it's called an Alesis PERFORMANCEPAD Drum Pad.

OR....
you could build your own pads with any Pad to Midi converter you can find on Ebay.

an old Yamaha DTS70 is great!!

pad building instructions are on my website.

go to my section and click on "lessons".

it's at the bottom of the page: How to buld E-drums
