Specialized features plus fresh rhythms, sounds, and effects!

The Roland HandSonic HPD-10 percussion controller is more affordable and streamlined than its big brother the HPD-15 (441917 - see customer products box), yet it offers the same great pad response that made the original HandSonic so popular, along with some sensational features and a fresh sound set.

New Sounds & Patterns

An all-new collection of sounds has been created for the HandSonic 10; approximately 400 high-quality instruments are onboard. All of the percussive essentials have been included — congas, bongos, tabla, djembe, cajon, etc. — as well as melodic percussion, drum kit, special effects, and more.

Sensitive Surface

Whether you're laying down the most delicate finger rolls or the sharpest slaps, the HandSonic 10's playing surface can handle anything you give it. The comfortable round surface is divided into ten individual pads with pressure- and positional-sensitivity. The popular D Beam is also included for dramatic triggering. Strike a virtual gong with your head, throw your fist into a crash cymbal, wiggle your fingers over a perfect chime gliss — you get the picture.

Rhythm Coach

Flaunting your chops on the stage or in the studio is the fun part, but behind the scenes it's practice that gets you the gigs in the first place. For this purpose, Roland has equipped the HandSonic 10 with a Rhythm Coach. This virtual trainer provides exercises to improve your timing, consistency, and endurance.

I/O Options

While the HandSonic 10 is primarily a hand percussion instrument, users can add a Roland kick pad (optional) via the external trigger input, or add a Roland V-Pad. The input is dual-trigger compatible for double the triggering power via an optional PCS-31L Y-cable.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • Perfect for drummer/percussionist

    As reviewed by mikemillermusic on 10/31/2006

    The Roland HPD-10 Handsonic is perfect for the drummer/percussionist. It's a drum kit, set of congas, timbales and much, much more - all carried with it's own adjustable stand in a backpack. As a percussionist, I hate dragging drums, congas, timbales and all my other effects to a gig. I also hate the carry and set-up. The HPD-10 gives you every option imaginable. It's perfect for large groups where you need to compete with keyboards, guitars or loud drummers. I don't even need mics to be HEARD, I just "plug in" and I control the volume and effects. It's also perfect for intimate or "acoustic only" settings where you need to control the exact volume. Roland has included the best drum & percussion sounds and effects you need in this new model. The HPD-10 allows you to play with and add a groove to any genre. I use it for Hip-Hop, Latin, Folk, Rock, Jazz and R&B groups that I play with. Use sticks or hands... use BOTH if you want. It takes me 2 minutes to set up, no tuning, no mics and studio recording is a breeze. It's so portable that sometimes I even take the bus to the gig because the HPD-10 & stand all fit in it's backpack. As a working musician, the HPD-10 has opened up a world of new opportunities and sounds for live & studio performance & made my life easier.

  • Portable Beat Labratory

    As reviewed by Zach on 6/29/2009

    I got this thing for two main reasons. One, it was lightwieght and small. I can stick it in my duffle bag and take it to my friends house with my amp and feel like my guitar playing friends do. You can take it right out hook the power and output in and play. It's a fast process. Two, the effects blew my mind. The D-Beam is awesome. Pad positioning is cool. The filters are so awesome, and theres so many effects. You get some guitarist with a lot of pedals trying to show off, play a beat on a drum set with Wah cranked up. Play some Bongos with distortion. Its great. The sounds are nice. I've used them in church. I dabber in melodic percussion and foreign drums, and all that other stuff. This is a great tool, although the only thing is this is key of C only.

  • More than you can imagine!

    As reviewed by Amy on 2/24/2010

    This small piece of equipment practically replaces my whole box of percussion toys and gives me a whole new range of instruments to experiment with. We have a song that requires extensive use of a finger snap. You can adjust the tone of the snap! Never before could I play the rain stick, chimes and crash cymbal all at the same time. Over 40 drum kits you can easily change with the press of a button! You can also configure an existing drum kit to change the pads to a different sound. Add all this to the ability to incorporate foot switches and you can do just about anything. There is only one complaint - why didn't they include a swelling crash to use with the D Beam? However, I am so glad I bought this!!!
