Q: Who is the Roland KT-9 Kick Trigger Pedal for?

The Roland KT-9 is perfect for drummers needing a quiet, compact kick solution for electronic drum kits. Its innovative link-less design significantly reduces noise, making it ideal for home practice, apartments, or late-night sessions. It's great for both new users setting up their first e-kit and experienced players looking for a silent, space-saving alternative to a traditional kick pad.

Q: What makes the KT-9's "link-less" design special?

The KT-9's unique link-less design integrates the pedal and trigger into one unit, eliminating the traditional beater and mechanical linkage. This innovative approach drastically reduces acoustic noise from the pedal action, allowing for extremely quiet practice. It also provides a smooth, consistent feel, making it comfortable for extended playing sessions.

If you have questions about specific module compatibility, a Sweetwater Sales Engineer can provide personalized gear advice.

Q: How does the KT-9's compact size benefit drummers?

With its compact footprint (14.37" long, 5.5" wide), the KT-9 is an excellent choice for drummers with limited space. It fits easily into small practice areas, home studios, or tight stage setups. Its integrated design also makes it highly portable, simplifying transport and setup for gigs or rehearsals.

This kt-9 trigger pedal works great with my alesis strike muilti pad, you just have to adjust the threshold . The pedal is well made and works great, thank you Tiberius

Compared to the KT-10 this is quieter and has a smaller footprint. Right out of the box, I've had a problem with retriggering but it can be easily adjusted in the settings of my SPD-SX. The KT-10 has a better feel though since it still hits a pad. Playing double strokes is easier in the KT-10 as well.

Simply put, modern electronic music wouldn't exist without Roland. Many of the electronic musicians here at Sweetwater cut our teeth on TR Rhythm machines and fondly remember programming our first TB-303s. We owe a good part of our careers to this amazing and innovative company. It's been fun to watch and grow right alongside Roland, as they've introduced wave after wave of revolutionary keyboards, digital pianos, and more. For example, Roland's V-Drum Kits continuously redefine the possibilities of electronic drums, beginning with SuperNATURAL technology to the latest Prismatic Sound Modeling. We're huge fans, and we'd love to tell you all about them. Whether you want a pocket-sized synth or a cutting-edge video mixer, if Roland makes it, then Sweetwater is 100% behind it.
