V-Beat Air Drum launches

Motion sensitive electronic drumkit


30 May 2008 13:46 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

Drumkits are cumbersome and expensive - so enter the V-Beat Air Drum for some stick action without the kit.

Comprising a pair of motion-sensitive sticks and a couple of foot sensor doobreys attached to an electronic "brain", this set up allows you to unleash your inner Animal.

Simply hit the air where the respective drums and cymbals would be if you were sitting at a traditional kit and you'll hear the corresponding snare, tom or cymbal.

The foot sensors for some bass drum or hi-hat action, just attach them to your shoes and kick away.

The main unit comes preloaded with four different types of drumkit, three melodies to jam along to, and there's also a free-play mode and fill-in mode. £20, available now.
