Hi! Three days ago i've bought a new drumset Roland td-3 kv. It costed 1150 euros. It's great.
I'm really happy. I can play at home! I have a question: how to connect additional sounds
to my td-3 module. One forum (http://drumset.bravehost.com) says, that it's possible, but i don't
how to do it.

you will need a Roland Trigger-->MIDI convertor....

Not possible with any drum brain. This is one of my biggest pet peeves (why didn't I mention it in the Pet Peeve thread?). You'll need a trigger to MIDI convertor like paul said, and then connect it to a sampler or your computer.

Or you could try to build a drum brain / sampler and then brag about it for months but never actually quite finish it like I did.....

Seriously, everything is finished except for the code for the GUI and a USB input. So far, you have to load sounds via a serial port.

I have a very low latency on my computer, and I have a Dell with a Pentium 4 (definitely under 1GHz), 512 MB of RAM, and a M-Audio Audiophile 2496 sound card. It works perfectly, and I'm not even using real electronic drums - just some that I built with triggers, mousepads, and PVC.
