BeatBuddy

Common card · No. 282212

The BeatBuddy is a digital drum machine made by Singular Sound that is housed in the form of a stompbox unit. The floor-based format and pedal footswitch enable musicians (such as guitar, bass, and keyboard players) to control the device hands-free while they are playing an instrument. Singular Sound is a Miami-based brand. David Packouz invented the pedal. The company first engineered and manufactured the device in 2014, after crowdfunding via Indiegogo. The BeatBuddy was intended to be a foot-controlled alternative to traditional tabletop, "hands-on" drum machines (such as the Roland TR-909 or the Roger Linn's LinnDrum). Since its release in 2014, the BeatBuddy has garnered positive reviews from magazines like Guitar Player, Guitar World and Sound On Sound, and won the Best in Show award at the 2015 NAMM Show.
