General

The Keith McMillen BopPad USB pad controller is a product many musicians would love to add to their current setup. Basically, it's a device with four sensitive pads that send out MIDI data via USB. By sensitive, we mean all you need to do to trigger them is tap them with your fingers, which is handy for musicians who don't play with drumsticks.

Keith McMillen BopPad: very expressive

The pads are velocity sensitive and support aftertouch, which means it makes a difference where you hit the pads, just as the sound of a cymbal's edge as opposed to its bell is different. The BopPad processes your attack with great precision, allowing you to play expressively.

Tips or comments about this product
  • Please note: the BopPad does not have a built-in sound generator. It is a MIDI controller only so you will need to connect it to a device with virtual instruments to use it.
  • As of 2022, the BopPad features a red finish instead of a black finish.

Zeker nodig voor muziek productie zoals realistische snares te maken, maar vooral ook goed voor handdrum, het is goed te combineren met Battery 4.

Fijne controller. I.c.m. de speciale mount ook breed inzetbaar.

Zeer responsief, goede aanslaggevoeligheid. Ook liggend op bijv. een tafel goed te bespelen. Persoonlijk bevalt mij het spelen met de hand/vingers beter dan met drumstokken o.i.d. De rebound van de pad is met drumstokken niet bijzonder goed (vergelijkbaar met een rubber drumpad van een basis elektronisch drumstel m.i).

Midi-setup is eenvoudig. I.p. geldt plug'n'play. Tenzij je het maximale uit de pad wilt halen. Dan zal je er echt even voor moeten gaan zitten gezien de uitgebreide midi-features van deze pad.

Stevige pad hoewel een usb-kabeltje en usb-input in verhouding wel kwetsbaar zijn.
