Bang On the Drum All Day!
Expanding on the technology and innovation that made the Roland V-Drum kit so popular, the HandSonic 15 is the hand percussionist's answer to the V-Drum kit. Percussionists can tap, slap and pound away like an entire percussion corps, choosing from over 300 percussion sounds from all over the world, everything from the Conga to the African Talking Drum to the Doholla. There are even electronic drums, acoustic drum kits, handclaps, scratches and more! The 10-inch rubber pad includes 15 sections for triggering 15 sounds simultaneously. Like the V-Drum kit, the pads are touch sensitive for expressive performance, and the sounds are incredibly realistic. There's even a 'D-Beam' and dual ribbon controllers. Trust us, it rocks! Order now and discover just how fun it can be to bang those drums all day!
