Roland KT-9 Kick Trigger Pedal

Play your kick drum as hard and as late as you want – without waking the house. The Roland KT-9 Kick Trigger Pedal is a beaterless kick pedal for electronic drums, designed for ultra-quiet home practice. Its patent-pending link mechanism cuts noise sharply while keeping the feel and playability of a real pedal.

Why customers choose it

• Much quieter: about 85% less noise in your practice space and 63% less to rooms below, compared with Roland’s KD-9 kick pad and beater pedal (Roland measurement).
• Feels right: smooth pedal mechanism with a familiar toe stopper gives an authentic kick feel.
• Picks up nuance: stable feet let you play as hard or soft as you like, with the module catching every detail.
• Small and simple: compact beaterless design takes little floor space and sets up quickly.
• Wide compatibility: works with V-Drums sound modules that have 1/4-inch trigger inputs and Roland percussion gear from the OCTAPAD SPD-30 to the HandSonic HPD-20.

Who it is for

Electronic drummers in flats and shared homes, students practising at night, teachers with home studios, and Octapad or HandSonic players who want a compact kick.
