Description
The Roland RT-30HR Acoustic Drum Trigger is a dual zone trigger designed for drummers who want to bring electronic sounds into an acoustic setup without losing the feel of real drums. It captures both head and rim hits from a snare or tom, so you can play articulations like rimshots or cross stick and fire different sounds from a compatible module. Whether you are building a hybrid kit for live shows, adding samples in the studio, or exploring creative layers at home, the RT-30HR delivers a simple and reliable way to expand your sound while keeping your existing drums at the heart of your playing.
Built to perform, the RT-30HR features a precise sensor and a self guided mounting system that positions the trigger for optimum response the moment you tighten it to the hoop. The compact housing keeps out of the way of your sticks, and the secure clamp resists movement even under energetic playing. Compared with basic student triggers, it offers true dual zone performance, more consistent tracking across the dynamic range, and a sturdier, longer lasting design that stands up to regular gigging, transport and rehearsal.
For lessons and school use across the UK, the RT-30HR makes hybrid setups quick to deploy and easy to manage. Teachers can clip it onto a shared kit in seconds and connect to a module for click tracks, percussion voices or backing layers that support graded pieces and ensemble work. It helps keep levels controlled in rehearsal through a module and mixer, and when paired with a compatible module and reduced volume heads it supports quieter practice with headphones. Durable, adaptable and simple to fit, it is a cost effective way for students and institutions to add modern versatility to existing acoustic drums.
