Korg's Cliphit Turns Whatever's In Reach Into An Instant Drum Kit

With a pair of drumsticks (or pencils) and a good imagination, anything can be turned into an impromptu drum kit. But Korg doesn’t want you to have to settle for imaginary sounds, or your terrible beatboxing skills. Its new Cliphit uses three cabled clips that attach and turn almost anything into drum pads that trigger different realistic sounding samples.

The built-in sound effects include snares, hi-hats, toms, cymbals and bass drums, and the user can choose between rock, pop or standard drum kits. The actual clips feature built-in motion sensors that can tell how hard you hit a box, a magazine, or whatever they’re clipped to, which in turn controls how loud a sample is played through the Cliphit’s three-inch speaker.
The control itself has a sensor too, allowing you to play it and trigger samples using your hands.
