Roland TM-2

Product Description

The Roland TM-2 is a compact trigger module for drummers who want to add electronic percussion to their acoustic kit. It has two trigger inputs supporting a wide range of Roland pads and drum triggers, and comes ready to play with over 100 built-in professional-quality sounds.

• Over 100 ready-to-use sounds – from acoustic drum and percussion sounds to electronic instruments
• Many sounds are designed to be layered on top of acoustic drums, giving stronger punch when the live kit is run through a PA
• Suits most styles, from rock and metal to electronic music
• Two trigger inputs supporting pads with one or two triggers
• Simple, intuitive interface for building and selecting kits
• Built-in effects: reverb, flanger and delay

Custom sounds via SDHC card

An SDHC card slot (card is an accessory, not included) lets you trigger your own WAV sounds – everything from drum samples and loops to full backing tracks. Combine the TM-2 with products such as Roland's BT-1 Bar Trigger, KT-10 Kick Trigger or the RT series of acoustic drum triggers to build powerful, affordable hybrid kits where acoustic and electronic elements work together.

Compatibility and connections

The TM-2 is compatible with Roland's RT series of acoustic drum triggers as well as Roland's trigger pads, including the BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad, KT-10 Kick Trigger Pedal, V-Pads and V-Cymbals. MIDI In/Out lets you trigger sounds in other modules, record MIDI data in music software, or play the TM-2 from other devices.

Power and mounting

The module runs on the included AC adapter or on four standard AA batteries, giving roughly four hours of playing time. An included mounting plate lets you attach the TM-2 to a hi-hat stand or drum cage using a standard multiclamp (accessory, not included).

Who It's For

The TM-2 suits drummers who already have an acoustic kit and want to add electronic percussion without investing in a full digital system – an easy, affordable step towards a hybrid setup.
