The Pad That Plays Like Percussionists Do:

Most electronic percussion pads are designed to be played with sticks. That's great for traditional drums, but not the ideal for more dynamic instruments like congas, tabla, or a guiro. The HPD-15 changes all that by using new Roland technology to convincingly model the unique performance characteristics of these instruments via a 10" rubber pad that can be played by hand. This pad is divided into 15 parts for simultaneous control of 15 different sounds. Thanks to a built-in pressure sensor, percussionists can perform muting and pitch control as they would on an acoustic instrument such as a conga. The main pad also supports Positional Sensing, which can produce subtle changes in timbre based on the area of the pad struck.

Move 300 Instruments Without Breaking a Sweat:

For most percussionists, carrying a multitude of instruments to gigs can be a major headache. Not with the HPD-15. With 300 internal sounds, this electronic percussion pad can be used in almost any musical context--all without breaking a sweat. There are percussion sounds from all over the world, including Latin countries, Southeast Asia, China, India, the Middle East, Africa, plus a variety of other ethnic sounds. For even more diversity, the HPD-15 features a collection of electronic drum sounds and sound effects, while onboard reverb and multi-effects allow for even more creativity. Users are free to save their sounds to any of 80 User Patches.

Massive Real-time Control

A host of powerful real-time controllers make playing the HPD-15 even more expressive, and can be used to modulate pitch, timbre, and other instrument parameters. With its exclusive D-Beam controller, percussionists can trigger the HPD-15's sounds or alter an instruments tuning simply by waving their hands over an infrared beam of light. The addition of the D-Beam makes performing with the HPD-15 even more eye-catching. Other real-time modifiers include two ribbon controllers, an expression pedal input, and three control knobs for nearly unlimited expression.

Built-in Sequencer:

The HPD-15's onboard sequencer offers a variety of Preset patterns which can be used for playing along or for practice purposes. These patterns cover many different musical styles and can easily be slowed down to a comfortable tempo. In addition, the sequencer can record real-time performances into any of its User memory locations for instant playback and storage. The HPD-15 also features a MIDI In and Out for integration with external sequencers and other MIDI gear.
