T950 10"x5" High Tom on Roland Octapad SPD-30
Setup — T950 10"x5" High Tom on Roland Octapad SPD-30
WorksYes — the T950 10"x5" High Tom works as a full tom on the Roland Octapad SPD-30: head + rim.
Head
Rim
Wiring: 1× TRS per tom → an EXTERNAL TRIGGER INPUT jack with a 2-zone Pad Type — head + rim
Each tom uses one of the four EXTERNAL TRIGGER INPUT jacks with a dual-trigger Pad Type (head + rim over one TRS cable). Four jacks exist in total, so plan them across your snare, toms, cymbals, ride and hi-hat pad — every external pad shares the same pool of four inputs.
Cable routing
- Connect a 1/4" TRS cable from each Lemon tom pad to a free EXTERNAL TRIGGER INPUT jack (1/KICK, 2/SNARE, 3/HI-HAT or 4/RIDE).
Module settings
- Press [MENU] > PAD > EXTERNAL to open the "PAD SETTING-EXTERNAL" screen.
- Hit each tom to select its input.
- Turn [Knob 1] (SEL) to select "Pad Type", then turn [Knob 3] (–/+) to set a tom profile such as PD-85 or PD-105.
- Turn [Knob 1] (SEL) to Sensitivity, Threshold and Velocity Curve and adjust each with [Knob 3] (–/+) if needed.
- In [MENU] > INST, assign tom head and rim waves to Inst Head and Inst Rim for each input.
Tips
- Only four EXTERNAL TRIGGER INPUT jacks exist — budget them across all the external pads you want to add.
- Raise X-Talk Cancel between toms mounted on the same stand.
