DigiTech and UK distributor Sound Technology Ltd have announced immediate availability of the new SDRUM Strummable Drums™ pedal. They tell us that it is the world's first intelligent drum machine for guitarists and bassists.

A spokesperson told us, "SDRUM is the fastest way to go from a beat idea to a working drum track.By simply scratching across your guitar strings, you teach the SDRUM a kick & snare pattern that forms the foundation of the beat you want to hear. Based on this pattern, the SDRUM supplies a professional sounding drum beat with different embellishments and variations to perfectly complement your beat. Gone are the days of having your creative flow disrupted by searching through lists in a frustrating attempt to find the beat you want."

The SDRUM stores up to 36 different songs. Beats are played from a choice of 5 different kits covering a wide range of genres. The pedal also supports three different parts (e.g. verse/chorus/bridge) for each song that can be switched on the fly for enhancing live performances and exploring song ideas.
