So You Wanna Be An (Office) Rock Super Star - The Drum Finger Mousepad Will Get You There Faster!

Tweet

I date a drummer and I spend a great deal of time looking for random drum toys to appease his hunger for his passion of drums. I’ve got him an array of steady sticks and bogus bags and now it looks like I’ll be adding the Finger Drum Mousepad to his collection.

The Finger Drum Mousepad is quite a nifty gadget for the IT Drummer (i’ll have you know there are many of them). This way, they get to take their drums to the office and play to their heart’s content. Obviously (for all those drummers out there) this will never replace owning the real thing … but imagine becoming the best finger tapping drummer out there? They could add this to the yearly drum fests!

This finger drumming is made possible by using your 4 fingers … gone are the days of tapping sweet nothings on your desk! Full drumkit here we come! The Finger Drum Mousepad with integrated electronic drumpad allows the office rock star to play a full kit by utilising the 8 different percussion sounds (bass, snare, two rack toms, floor tom, hi-hat, crash and ride cymbal).

The Finger Drum Mousepad ($39.95) is equipped with an Mp3 player input so you can play your music through your new “finger kit” and play your amazing solos straight over them!

The Finger Drum Mousepad comes pre-programmed with a demonstration mode which has 6 preset patterns but also allows you the opportunity of recording 30 of your own rhythm masterpieces. Like any other electronic music gadget, you are able to adjust volume and tempo controls as well as insert a headphone so as to not annoy your co-workers (though i’m fairly certain the finger-tapping should do the trick for some highly strung it guys!)
