Using the Roland PD - 125 drum pad is easy. First, connect it to your power source and any other audio equipment you want to use. Start playing by hitting the pads just like you would on a regular drum set. When you're done, turn it off properly. Be careful not to hit the pads too hard, especially since the rim pad has some rips. To maintain it, keep it in a dry place and clean the pads gently with a soft cloth every once in a while. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity.
