The Perc Lets You Harness MIDI to Create Precise Beats
Rahul Kalvapalle — April 5, 2016 — Tech
The Perc is an exceptionally innovative percussion system, developed by Poland, that allows you to make full use of MIDI to create truly precise and beautiful beats.
What's great about this MIDI percussion system is the fact that it combines the best features of acoustic and digital beat-making techniques by making use of both MIDI commands and physical drum components. The system is essentially capable of playing any real percussion instrument that is played by hand or with a stick. This functionality allows it to not just bang on regular drum kits but also work with glockenspiels and steel drums.
Ultimately, the Perc MIDI percussion system will appeal to percussionists who embrace technology but still appreciate the sound of regular physical instruments.
