Does Roland manufacture its own mounting hardware, and if not, is it one of the standard drum companies that makes it for them? Also, is there any reason not to mount the snare pad on the rack instead of on a stand and is there a special clamp to do this? I've read the other threads about the best snare stands to use but there isn't as much discussion about not using one at all.

Doesn't your roland snare have the 'adaptor" that will let you hood it onto an L arm? I had a PD120, I could have rack mounted it if I had wanted...but I never would have wanted to..Roland V-Pro TD20 expanded with V Expressions

I haven't received the set yet. I'm just trying to anticpate the extras I will need and wonder why the snare can't be rack mounted instead of using a separate stand.RonComment

Sorry, should have been more specific. I'm talking about the V-session set which shows the snare mounted on a stand, not the rack. All of the other sets that I've seen in the stores have the snare on a stand as well.RonComment

For better isolation from false triggering, crosstalk and such, a separate snare stand is ideal.Originally posted by MacDrumster:

Are you sure? I do not hear any V-Custom-r's complainin' around here. Perhaps you've been reading too much propaganda from snare stand munufacturers or users that are just no freekin good at adjusting their modules.Originally posted by szvook:

Nope - from personal experience.
Get on stage with a good stage PA and see how the audio waves can affect the pads that are mounted together. Since the snare gets the most work, to me isolation can only benefit the player to say the least. And I don’t want to start the topic (again) of how many do actually play out to notice what can happen in that situation, stage amplification will make a difference – once you actually experience it. Marc?

I doubt that this is your experience alone, so I'll have to think eveyone else is just keepin' quiet about it then. OK?Originally posted by szvook:

Nah, KD-7's RULESteve
'I only ever quote myself - except when I quote someone else' - me
, plenty of , and , , triggered acoustics, , and a plethora of PA blah blah freakin blah...I mean does anyone care about the specifics of pedals, speakers, processors, hardware or anything that I'm using?? :confused: Hmmm, maybe this is an appropriate place to mention that I tried out a new cymbal stand the other day...Comment

I actually take the rack mounting thingie off the PD-120 that I use for a snare. If I switch out 120's if one starts getting "tired" I'll do the same and put the hardware back on. In the meantime, I'm looking for a good ashtray/cupholder/etc. of the same circumference as a PD-120 so I can put that worthless mounting thingie to good use. (And yes, I know the cupholder innovation has been done, but I can't wait forever for you to market it!) :;Originally posted by szvook:
