is the pad section able to light on hits,so we have a visual representation of what tracks are playing?
i cannot make it out in vids but seeing the snare roll video come up again reminded me
and are these pads velo sensitive? can’t say i have seen that mentioned anywhere
thanks
looking forward to more progress while waiting for ours to arrive

              Do you happen to have a link to the snare roll vid? Thanks.

20minutes in Brad talks about this.

              by the way for anyone who hasn’t seen this answered
yes we see the pads light up when they receive a strike, sequence etc
             
            
              
            
           
          
            
            
              Its best if you watch all the videos and the livestreams, they go through a lot of info.
Heard them mention more than once that the lights will highlight many things as in groups tracks individual hits etc.
And they are definitely velocity sensitive.
I think the whole reason they chose the pads over the switches is for velocity sensitive pads.

              A lot better than the piezo solution of the OG haha
             
            
              
            
           
          
            
            
              Yeh i get it from a nostalgic point of view people crying about the og switches, but apart from that i don’t get it
Coincidentally im sure the og sp users would quite happily tell me i dont get it too

              I’ve not owned but have played with a few SP1200s. I for one am glad he went with high quality pads that give visual feedback. I was never attached to the form factor just the workflow and sound.
