Unlock Multi-Button Precision Control with SuperSwitch

Most multi-button controllers only let you trigger one command at a time. The SuperSwitch changes everything.

Using a proprietary signal protocol, the SuperSwitch gives you simultaneous, synchronized control over multiple functions—pause and trigger an accent hit, switch parts and start a fill, all without missing a beat. You can jump directly to any song part, trigger half-time or double-time tempo, use multiple accent hits, and easily navigate entire set lists hands free.

Expression Pedal Support

BeatBuddy 2 lets you connect any standard expression pedal to shape your sound in real time. With hands free control of tempo, volume, and velocity, you can ease into a groove or build toward an explosive fill, just like a real drummer. It's a new level of control that makes your beats feel more human, more dynamic, and more alive.

See More, Do More

BeatBuddy 2 features a larger, higher-resolution screen and an improved interface that makes it easier to find songs, adjust settings, and stay locked in during a set. Whether you're switching parts mid song or tweaking tempo on the fly, everything's sleeker, more intuitive, and built to keep up with you.
