Over 50 onboard sounds and a roster of invaluable exercises make it the coach of the year!

Roland builds on its winning rhythm line with the RMP-5 Rhythm Coach. Back in 2005 the RMP-3 made headlines when it was announced. Sharing a few key features in common with the popular RMP-3, the Roland RMP-5 has a great-feeling, tunable mesh drumhead, and a convenient one-piece molded body with integrated pad and brain. The Roland Rhythm Coach strides to the front of the class, however, with its 54 onboard PCM sounds (including snare drums, kick, cymbals, and percussion instruments; the RMP-3 has no built-in sampled sounds) plus an external dual trigger input so you can add a kick and cymbal pad for drumkit practice. The Roland RMP-5 also features an advanced, expanded Rhythm Coach mode.
