Roland TM-1 Trigger Module

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.



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.



With the TM-1, it’s easy for any player to start their hybrid journey. With dedicated controls for sensitivity, pitch, and more, there’s no technical knowledge required for operation – simply turn the knobs until the sound is right to you and start playing!
