Practise, Play & Record
The DD221 isn't just about playing along. It also includes a MIDI recording function, allowing you to capture your performances and connect the drum kit to compatible computer-based music software.
The USB-C MIDI connection makes the DD221 a useful addition to a home recording setup, giving you the ability to use your computer and music software to expand your creative possibilities.

Hand Percussion Mode
The DD221 also includes a dedicated Hand Percussion function, allowing the pads to be adjusted for hand-played percussion. It's a handy feature for players who want to explore rhythms beyond conventional drum kit playing.
Compact & Easy to Use
The DD221 is designed for straightforward operation, with dedicated buttons providing quick access to sounds, kits, songs, tempo, recording and other functions. Its tabletop format makes it considerably easier to set up and store than a conventional electronic drum kit.
