[NAMM] Korg WaveDrum

WAVEDRUM can be used as a stand-alone percussion instrument, or integrated into an existing drum kit or percussion rig. Unlike digital trigger-based systems, WAVEDRUM uses a real drum head as the playing surface, providing an authentic and familiar feel, according to the manufacturer.

This is designed to allow the performer to employ sticks, brushes, mallets and/or traditional hand-drum techniques (mute, slap, bend, etc.).

100 preset programs and 100 user programs are stored in memory, with 12 favorites available for instant access. Reverb and Delay effects add depth and character to the sound.
