  • Please note that your Santroller Configurator may have different settings, depending on how your drums were connected/modded.
    If you purchased your drums pre-modded or adapter pre-made, contact the seller for more information.

Be sure to [download the latest version of Santroller].
After that, start up Santroller.

In the start screen, select your Device to program, Connection Method, and Device to Emulate. This will depend on what device you’re using for your drums.
In the tutorial screenshots, it was a Raspberry Pi Pico, USB Adapter, and Rock Band Drums respectively.
After selecting your options, click on Configure.
