Turn Your Acoustic Snare Drum
Into a Practice Pad.
With the PCK-1 Practice Conversion Kit, you can turn your
acoustic snare drum into a near-silent practice pad. This
special package includes a patented 14-inch mesh head, an
acoustic trigger with separate head/rim capabilities, and a
rim silencer so you can practice naturally without disturbing
others. Add an optional RM-2 Rhythm Coach training module
for even more effective practice.
Time Check : Time Check mode is designed to develop timing
skills by learning to play exactly with the beat of the metronome.
Beats played on the pad are measured against the timing of the
metronome using a visual display for feedback.
Rhythmic Notes : Rhythmic Notes is an excellent warm up exercise that also teaches note values. In
this mode, the metronome plays through a series of beat divisions every two measures----starting with half
notes, up to 16th-note triplets, and back down.

With Roland's RT-Series drum triggers, acoustic
drummers can expand the power of their sets by
tapping into the world of electronic drums. Best of all,
these durable and ultra-sensitive triggers can be easily
installed, and without altering the acoustic kit's sound.
* The performance of the RT-Series can be affected by elements such as the type of drum being used, the tuning and use of a
mute. For best performance, refer to your sound module’s Owner’s Manual and set the trigger parameters accordingly.
* Be sure to mute the bass and snare drum (toms can also be muted if external vibrations are picked up).
* Use a ring mute or mute-type drum head to improve the performance of the RT-5S Snare Trigger.
