IKP Bass Powrpad Practice Pad

IKP 13" Bass Powrpad Practice Pad

Introducing the first tuneable practice bass pad for pipe bands. With a realistic feel and tuneable to all notes on the great highland bagpipe, take your practice to the next level.

The IKP 13" Bass Powrpad has a large playing surface that fits inside a standard snare stand and has a natural feel for a realistic mallet rebound. IKP Powrpads provide the best practice substitute to an acoustic drum. The Bass pad produces a warm, full, and resonate tone, which is fully tunable to any note found on the bagpipe chanter. Using a real drum skin, the bass pad also offers a touch which replicates a real bass drum, offering a precise and articulate feel.

Some areas you will immediately see improvement:
Individual: Practice with correct weight/volume control, helping advance your rebound and touch on the drum.
Mid-Section: Memorize parts faster, as you can hear your specific notes within the runs.
Drum Corps: Easy for lead drummer to accurately hear the mid-section, and their individual or group timings within the drum scores.
Pipe Band: Better the bands ensemble, as pipe major and midsection can clearly hear their notes and the relationship to support the bagpipe melody.
