The Roland HPD-10 is more affordable and streamlined than its big brother, the HPD-15. It offers the same great pad response that made the original HandSonic so popular, but with a specialized set of features and a fresh batch of sounds, rhythms, and effects.
New Sounds & Patterns.
An all-new collection of sounds has been created for the HandSonic 10; approximately 400 high-quality
instruments are onboard. All of the percussive essentials have been included — congas, bongos, tabla, djembe, cajon,
etc. — as well as melodic percussion, drum kit, special effects, and more.
Sensitive Surface.
Whether you’re laying down the most delicate finger rolls or the sharpest slaps, the HandSonic 10’s
playing surface can handle anything you give it. The comfortable round surface is divided into ten individual pads with
pressure and positional-sensitivity. The popular D Beam is also included for dramatic triggering. Strike a virtual gong
with your head, throw your fist into a crash cymbal, wiggle your fingers over a perfect chime gliss — you get the picture.
Rhythm Coach.
Flaunting your chops on the stage or in the studio is the fun part, but behind the scenes it’s practice
that gets you the gigs in the first place. For this purpose, Roland has equipped the HandSonic 10 with a Rhythm Coach.
This virtual trainer provides exercises to improve your timing, consistency, and endurance.
Input/Output Options.
While the HandSonic 10 is primarily a hand percussion instrument, users can add a Roland kick pad (optional)
via the external trigger input, or add a Roland V-Pad. The input is dual-trigger compatible for double the triggering
power via an optional PCS-31 Y-cable.
Features:
- All-new sounds (approx. 400)
- Style Guide Metronome (new metronome function with backing rhythm patterns)
- 10 individual pads with pressure sensing
- Large icon-driven LCD
- D Beam controller for sound/pitch/effects control
- 20 multi-effects
- Rhythm Coach function
