Have you had the chance to use the BeatBuddy? Are you looking at getting one?

I love my BeatBuddy. The footswitch and external pedal can be figured in all sorts of ways. You can also buy other drum kits, create your own and load up other rhythms besides the factory ones. I use the BBuddy to send MIDI time signals to my BOSS RC500 looper to keep them in sync. I built a little platform to mount my BBuddy on my iPad stand and have the external pedal on the floor. It makes for quick adjustments and selections. My next project is to send programme changes from my iPad sheet music app. That way I'll have minimal tech overhead on a gig. Because the BBuddy can be 'played' with fills and hits on the fly it never has to be 'sequencer-boring'. The biggest hoot is the Sobriety setting. Check it out.

You explain really well, plus very thorough coverage of the BeatBuddy. Thank you! 😊 -Mary

I fit into the bedroom jammer category. You know, 13, 15, 54 year olds … 😅 Just ordered one yesterday.

Someone mentioned double-tap
to stop song, which got me thinking
about all the features that I've
seen so far;
So tricky (dbl tap, 'outro'),
especially when working
a vocal processor, guitar processor
and or G.P. pedals,
playing and singing at the same
time while trying to read a micro screen
on the floor.
I was so ready to buy this, then
came the part of how to load songs,
via software, not the pedal, which
usually means signing up to one
or more new sites.
If they made a model similar to this,
2 or 3 times larger with a huge
display window, and
the 4 or 5 pedals that it deserves,
with all features accessible within
the pedal, with the exception of
'very deep' editing, I would buy
it in a heartbeat.

Nice video.
I love mine.
I often do solo gigs with my BB paired to the Aeros looper.
I’m an old analog guy so I am learning new things all the time.

Good video. Thanks. Any chance you could do a video showing how a gigging musician might save songs, and they show how to access them during a performance.

[kayalastochka]

Really helpful video!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!! Blessings!

[luigilppagano]

If I don’t like to keep the BBon the floor can I program the second pedal for star-feel-stop instead of the smash? Pls advise.
Ps: nice video 👍🏽

Like the concept of this but can see it's a bit fussy also that screen is very small and would be difficult to see when standing up and playing live in a dingy bar. Somebody convince me I'm wrong!

[seasidewalktosand]

sorta reminds me of a Boss Dr. Rhythm from the '80s!

[FostaFunk]

Thanks for the informative video! Getting back into playing again and was debating on getting a loop station and adding tracks to it but this looks way more fun! It looks very user friendly and plug and play. Is there any country train style beats on it?

[dearquan]

My question is, is when i hit the right switch on the singular sound it doesn't stop it... am I missing something?

[joshopsal]

I know what I'm asking Santa for this Christmas!

[oscarcastillo]

How do u save your rhythms
U create for your original songs

[marcbehm]

That you have to double tap to stop (either main pedal or foot switch) is a bummer. Makes succinct performance nearly impossible. Anyone have a work around for this problem?

[bevmoore]

How did you hook up left and right ..2 separate chords?

[x]

Is there any MIDI device that we can play chords with the beatbuddy? Anyone know?
