The Simmons SD1 Electronic Practice Drum Pad makes practice fun or adds tons of sounds to your kit. Plug in headphones for quiet practice on your timing, dynamics, and speed, then, plug into an amp and use the many different drum sounds to add color to your kit without having to buy all the actual instruments.

With an arsenal of 65 different drum sounds, 6 different metronome sounds, built in warm up exercises, record and playback modes you will want to bring it with you everywhere.

As a drummer, you are the backbone that the other musicians depend on, and if you aren’t on time, the whole band isn’t. This practice drum pad features functions that will help you develop better time, dynamics, consistency, and over-all better performance.

The Functions:
• The Beat Check Trainer function will check your timing and make sure you are on, and playing in perfect time
• Stroke Balance Trainer helps you develop dynamic consistency so you play more musically and articulate
• The 6 different metronome sounds enable you to select the right sound for your practicing comfort
• The Record and Playback function provides you with the opportunity to actually hear what you are playing and shows you if you are on or not. A feature not found in many practice drum pads.

Rating:
Great, solid practice drum pad to help you keep your chops in time. What’s cool about this practice drum pad is that it comes with foot pedals as well. Very intuitive and easy to use to get you up and running in no time. Great for warming up before a gig, and it’s portable to make that possible. Simmons has made electronic drums for as long as I can remember. They know what they’re doing in the electronics side of percussion instruments. This high quality practice drum pad is sure to please and will help any drummer advance their drumming skills.
