Create Your Hybrid Drum Kit with Ease
The TM-2 Trigger Module is the perfect tool for blending acoustic and electronic elements together. With two trigger inputs, you can connect a variety of pads and drum triggers from Roland, allowing you to customize your drum set to suit your needs. Whether you want to add additional percussion sounds, trigger your own custom WAV samples and loops, or enhance your live acoustic drums with studio-quality multi-effects, the TM-2 has got you covered. It’s never been easier or more affordable to create a powerful hybrid drum kit that combines the best of both worlds.
Convenient and Portable Design
With its ultra-compact size and battery-powered operation, the TM-2 is designed for convenience and portability. It mounts easily onto a hi-hat stand or drum rack using standard hardware, allowing you to integrate it seamlessly into your existing drum setup. The battery-powered operation eliminates the need for AC power, making it perfect for gigs, rehearsals, or jam sessions wherever you go. The intuitive panel features straightforward controls for assigning sounds to the trigger inputs and saving them as kits, with large, easy-to-press buttons for quick access during performances.
Compatible with Roland Pads and Acoustic Drum Triggers
The TM-2 is equipped with trigger inputs that support Roland pads and acoustic drum triggers. You can use a wide range of pads from Roland’s V-Drums lineup, including those that support dual triggering for enhanced expressiveness. For a truly integrated hybrid kit, consider using the BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad, which mounts onto the rim of an acoustic drum, or the KT-10 Kick Trigger Pedal, designed with a compact size that fits comfortably alongside other pedals. The TM-2 also works seamlessly with Roland’s RT-series acoustic drum triggers, allowing you to trigger sounds on kick, snare, and tom drums.
Professional Sounds and Performance Enhancement
The TM-2 is loaded with ready-to-play pro sounds that are optimized for live performances and enhancing acoustic drums. These acoustic sounds are designed to blend seamlessly with your acoustic kit, providing a polished, high-impact sound that can be amplified through a PA system. Additionally, the module offers a wide selection of electronic sounds that are perfect for modern music styles. The TM-2 also features traditional percussion instruments such as cowbell, wood block, and wind chimes, giving you the ability to extend the capabilities of your acoustic kit.
Expand Your Sound Library with SDHC Cards
The TM-2 allows you to expand your sound library by using your own custom sounds. Simply copy WAV audio files from your computer onto an SDHC card and insert it into the module’s card slot. This enables you to use your own studio-processed drums, sound effects, looped grooves, or backing tracks alongside the internal sounds. You can even process your custom sounds using the TM-2’s onboard multi-effects, giving you even more creative possibilities.
Enhance Your Setup with MIDI Integration
The TM-2 features MIDI I/O, allowing you to expand your electronic percussion setup with external devices. You can trigger sounds in V-Drums modules, keyboards, and synth modules, and connect to a computer via a MIDI interface to record MIDI data and play sounds in popular music software. It’s also possible to play the TM-2’s internal sounds and WAV sounds stored on an SDHC card from an external MIDI device, giving you even more control over your performance.
