ETA: End April 2024
Beatbuddy from singular sound is the first “Hands free” drum machine in the world. In a compact “Effect Style” pedal housing it provides via a single footswitch an ingeniously simple, hands-free control of beats, fills, transitions, outros or tap tempo, making it the ideal partner not only for guitarists and bassists. His well readable, multi-colour display informs about the current song part and features an optical metronome also. Played by real studio drummers, unquantized MIDI Loops and Multi-Layered Sounds including 15 dynamic levels surpass conventional drum machines by far and reach an impressive authenticity. A detachable, packed full, 4GB SD card includes 200 songs and 10 drum kits. Additional songs and kits are available online and can be easily and quickly transferred to the Beatbuddy via the integrated USB interface. For the “Late Nite Jam” external instruments can be connected and listened to via the integrated headphone output.
An optional footswitch extends the functionality of Beatbuddy to access Accent and pause. For synchronization with other MIDI equipment, an optional MIDI sync cable is also available.
