Direct from Winter NAMM 2011: Hey - it's the Wavedrum Oriental! More samples, more power, more patterns, and a bunch of new sounds designed for Middle Eastern music. Here, Geoff Brown takes the new Wavedrum Oriental for a spin!

@epohnopulse I agree I would certainly buy one if they were around the £199 mark, it`s just samples and a touch responsive skin really.

If they sold on even as a software controller, it would cut them costs. would be nice to see this as a controller with PC software packs you could buy.

It should be avaible through an update to the original wavedrum.

HEY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR REPLYING THANKS AGAIN NOW IT KINDA MAKES SENCE SO AM GONNA KEEP IT :D

[JohnBertotti]

@shantimix I have the silver WD and it is anything but useless! If you don't want the delay find the patch you like and recreat it, or tweak it and when it is how you like it save ti to one of your 100 user spaces! Then you have your sound without the delay, no biggie. I'm no pro and new to drums in general. I understand there is a lot going on in the wavedrum but if I can figure it out I'm sure you can.

[shantimix]

cool but can i use it live with a band with out any delay??????

the first generation i bought was a waste of money!!!

[777kayfo]

yeah i like that

[TheKeswickGallagher]

@epohnopulse although actually musically useful.

I sadly agree 

[epohnopulse]

Another overpriced piece of equipment brought to you by Korg.

Does this have AV out? I'd like to use it with my Boss BR-900CD? I have mic, line in, mic phantom power in, guitar port, etc.
