Kick Trigger Pedal
Rock-Solid Playability in an Integrated
Low-Noise Design
Featuring innovative new technology from
Roland, the KT-10 provides authentic feel and
playability in a low-noise kick trigger pedal for
V-Drums sound modules and other electronic
percussion instruments. The all-in-one design
oers fast, uid response and a unique

reverse-action trigger mechanism that makes
the pedal not only compact in size, but also
far quieter in operation than a kick pad played
with a standard pedal and beater. With its small
footprint, the KT-10 is ideal for use alongside an
acoustic kick pedal in a hybrid drum set, and it
also works great for expanding the capabilities of
an SPD-series percussion pad or the HandSonic
HPD-20. Of course, the KT-10’s pro feel,
noise-reducing features, and portable
convenience make it perfect for use with any
V-Drums kit as well.

A Low-Noise Kick Trigger Pedal for Playing V-Drums at Home
One of the many reasons that drummers love V-Drums is the ability to plug in headphones and play quietly without
disturbing others, something that’s impossible with acoustic drums. However, while V-Drums’ mesh-head pads are
nearly silent acoustically, using a kick trigger pad that incorporates a standard pedal and beater will produce an
audible amount of noise while playing. If this poses a problem where you play and practice, the KT-10 oers a great
alternative. Thanks to its innovative reverse-action trigger mechanism, the pedal produces approximately 75 percent
less noise in the playing room (based on Roland test data) while still providing authentic playability and a rock-solid
feel. The KT-10 is compatible with any V-Drums sound module that’s equipped with 1/4-inch trigger inputs.
Ideal for Use with Hybrid Kits and Roland E-Percussion Instruments
With its small footprint and integrated design, the low-prole KT-10 takes up much less space than a standard kick
trigger pad and pedal, making it ideal for use alongside other pedals in a drum kit that combines acoustic and
electronic elements. Roland’s TM-2 Trigger Module is a perfect partner in this hybrid application, providing built-in
sounds and inputs for various Roland pads, pedals, and triggers, including the KT-10. The kick trigger pedal also oers
an easy way to expand the capabilities of Roland percussion instruments such the SPD-SX Sampling Pad, OCTAPAD
SPD-30, and HandSonic HPD-20. Connecting the KT-10 to a trigger input on a Roland device is simple and quick,
requiring just a single cable.
Adjustable and Expandable
The KT-10 features adjustments for customizing the feel to
suit your personal playing style. The pedal response can
be altered by removing weights in the beater mechanism
or shifting them to dierent slots, while moving the spring
to dierent hook positions lets you easily modify the
pedal’s tension. In addition, the convenient Mix In trigger
jack allows you to create a double-pedal setup with a
second KT-10.
