Roland TM-1 Drum Trigger Module

Roland TM-1 Trigger Module

The TM-1 is a unique trigger module that makes it easy to add more sounds to your acoustic drum kit. And those sounds can be anything you like, from the TM-1’s onboard kick, snare, tom, cymbal, and percussion samples to your own samples and loops. Just connect any compatible Roland trigger pad to the TM-1 and directly play the sounds you need, or mount an RT-series trigger to one of your acoustic drums and play with your preferred sample layered on top in perfect sync, with no lag whatsoever.

• The easiest way to get started with the power of hybrid drums
• Simple and intuitive to use, with direct controls for all trigger functions
• Small size, battery operation, and sturdy floor-based design integrates easily with your regular drum set
• Two built-in footswitches for triggering sounds, changing kits, and muting the module
• Suitable for any music style, from rock and metal to electronic music and beyond
• 15 ready-to-play onboard kits and nearly unlimited sound customization via a convenient editor app
• Free TM-1 Editor (Mac/Windows, iOS/Android) provides access to over 150 additional sounds, plus user sample import and much more
• Compatible with Roland RT-series acoustic drum triggers and a wide variety of Roland trigger pads
• Connect up to two pads or triggers (two single-trigger devices or one dual-trigger device)
• Also works as a trigger-to-MIDI converter when connected to a computer
• USB for editor communication and trigger-to-MIDI conversion

Getting your own custom sounds into the TM-1 is a breeze, thanks to the free editor app for Mac/Windows and iOS/Android. Simply connect the TM-1 to your device, open the app, import samples from your library, and tweak the settings as needed. When it comes to performing on stage, the battery- or AC-powered TM-1 can be easily controlled with your foot via built-in switches. It’s even possible to mute the hybrid sound with a foot press, letting you go all-acoustic in the verses before bringing in some extra hybrid power for the chorus. Every working drummer can benefit from a hybrid setup these days, and the TM-1 is the easiest and most affordable place to start.
