- Can the TM-1 play my own samples?
- Yes. It plays WAV, MP3 and AIFF files from a microSD card, alongside its built-in sounds.
- How many pads or triggers can I connect?
- Two. Each input takes a trigger or pad and can be assigned its own sound.
- Does it work without a drum module?
- Yes. It has its own sounds and audio output, so it can feed a PA or interface directly. MIDI out lets it trigger other gear too.
- Can I use it with an acoustic kit?
- Yes. Clip-on or drum-mounted triggers feed the inputs, letting you layer electronic sounds on real drums.
- Does it run on batteries?
- Yes. It runs on batteries or a wall adapter, which helps when power outlets are far from the kit.
- Is it a full drum machine?
- No. It is a trigger module for two inputs, not a sequencer with patterns or a full pad kit.
