Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Roland SPD-SX PRO App.

Features and functionality

  • Typing BPMs directly into the SPD-SX PRO app is possible, but kit reordering relies on a "Copy Kit" function instead of drag-and-drop.

    Source
  • The SPD-SX PRO app functions as an editor and librarian, indicating its limited role in directly producing or outputting audio through USB.

    Source

Software and compatibility

  • The SPD-SX PRO app requires the device to be connected and executes commands directly on the hardware, limiting offline use.

    Source
  • USB connectivity transmits only data, not audio, necessitating an alternative setup for sound output, such as using headphones for direct monitoring.

    Source

User experience

  • Users report that the app marginally speeds up kit reordering compared to the SPD-SX, but still suffers from poor UX design.

    Source

Comparisons

  • Compared to the Helix for guitarists, the SPD-SX PRO app lacks the flexibility to easily drag and drop kits for setlist reordering.

    Source

Setup and maintenance

  • Adding the SPD-SX PRO as an audio device within a DAW is essential for playback functionality and sound monitoring, as demonstrated in FL Studio.

Critic Reviews

Roland SPD-SX Pro

soundonsound.com

The Roland SPD-SX Pro is a percussion pad that lives up to its "Pro" tag, offering a vast array of features that cater to demanding gigs. With 32GB of sample memory, a large LCD, and customizable LEDs, it surpasses its predecessors in both form and function. However, its hefty price and lack of audio time-stretching might deter some. Despite these drawbacks, the SPD-SX Pro's improved pad sensitivity, extensive storage, and enhanced click features make it a standout choice for serious musicians looking for a versatile and robust sampling pad.
