Finger Drums: Tiny Digital Drum Kit

By Alice Hill
RealTechNews

I love the drums, but air drumming is even sadder looking than air guitar. Which is why I loved finding the Finger Drums from Iwantoneofthose.com. The mouse pad-sized gadget sports tiny sensors that emulate the sounds of a professional drum kit. No sticks required - just let your fingers do the drumming.

Roughly the size of a mouse mat, and with a touch sensitive pad depicting a traditional drum kit, the Finger Drums have a snare, high hat, three tom toms, a base drum and two cymbals - you just tap them and they play astonishingly well through the in-built speaker. You can even record your best drum breaks and play them back, play along to six pre-programmed demos and adjust the volume and tempo. They may annoy the heck out of everyone else on the room, but boy are they fun. £19.95 [approx $32]

    Finally, the gadget that solves the “I really need a rim-shot here” problem after making that almost perfect pun!

    I bought the fingerdrum and i am amazed at how good it sounds. I cannot believe how much fun ive been having with my right hand lately. This is a great alternative and you can play with it almost anywhere, underwater excluded.

    You have to try this, it rocks balls.
