From Our Research Team:

Perfect for Practice or Performance

Roland's RMP-12 represents a revolution in rhythm training, practice, and marching band percussion. The mesh head offers a stick response that is amazingly close to that of acoustic heads, and the built-in sound module offers great-sounding emulations of high-quality marching snares, toms, bass drums, cymbals, and other drums and percussion instruments and other percussion instruments, as well. The RMP-12 easily integrates into any sound system, and a wireless system readies it for on-field use. Whether as a practice tool or marching instrument, drummers will love the RMP-12!

Roland RMP-12 at a Glance:
  • Mesh-head comfort
  • Sound
  • Rhythm Coach onboard
  • Marching percussion

Mesh-head comfort
The RMP-12's patented mesh head provides low acoustic noise, high durability and unsurpassed comfort. Head tension can be adjusted via drum key, just like an acoustic drum, for the perfect stick response. The head is also replaceable, like an acoustic drum.

Sound
The RMP-12 offers high-quality marching snares, toms, bass drums, cymbals, and other drums and percussion instruments. It also contains a variety of Latin percussion, as well as electronic sounds. The four memory buttons let you store your favorite sounds and call them up instantly during your performance.

Rhythm Coach onboard
The Rhythm Coach helps you build speed, stamina and accuracy. Even if you're not in Rhythm Coach mode, you can practice with the Time Check whenever you start the metronome. The Time Check Score, which grades accuracy, is one of the menus in the Rhythm Coach. Other effective exercises include the Auto Up/Down, which gradually speeds up and slows down the metronome, and the DynaMeter, which shows your stroke dynamics on the screen.

Marching percussion
Perfect for extended use, the RMP-12 is lightweight and battery-powered. It can be attached to standard marching-drum carriers for wireless transmission, allowing you to freely move around during your performance. For practice, mount the RMP-12 to a concert-snare stand and use the Roland CUBE Street monitor, or simply connect headphones for quiet practice.

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
