Description

JustDrums are excited to introduce the Carlsbro Okto A Digital Percussion Pad by Percussion Percussion . Ready to be delivered to any location in the UK.

Introducing the Okto A Digital Percussion Pad from Carlsbro: an 8 pad, 2 pedal piece of modern percussion. It can be used entirely standalone, or as part of your existing drum setup. 

4+4 = 8 

The majority of the unit consists of 8 high response, seriously rugged rubber pads. Each one is highly configurable, allowing you to tweak certain parameters to suit your own playing style and desired sound. Thanks to the dedicated foot controller pedals – one for your hi-hat, the other for your bass drum – the Okto A aims to recreate a traditional setup in a more portable guise. 

Play & Experiment 

Containing 408 drum voices, 30 preset drum kits and 20 user drum kits, there's an extensive library of sounds to take control of. These can all be tweaked too; select from integrated effects, including 6 different reverb modes, changing the time, filter, depth and strength levels. You'll be able to craft a unique percussion sound that's entirely your own.   

Practice Potential

The Okto A should help you improve your drumming too. It includes 20 demo songs, as well as 30 different coaching mode practice songs, each of which are designed to develop your chops. And that's without mentioning the built-in teaching functions; these cover snare, full drum kit and various rhythm lessons, allowing you to build key skills that can be translated to other pieces of percussion.

Percussion

Percussion covers a wide and diverse family of instruments that create sound through being struck, shaken, or scraped. It includes everything from drum kits and hand drums to auxiliary instruments such as shakers, tambourines, cowbells, blocks, and mallet percussion. Percussion adds rhythm, texture, and colour to music across virtually every genre.

Hand percussion instruments like congas, bongos, djembes, and cajons are played using the hands or simple techniques, while auxiliary percussion is often added to drum kits to expand rhythmic and tonal options. Mallet percussion, such as xylophones and similar instruments, introduces melody as well as rhythm, broadening the musical role percussion can play.

Percussion is used in live performance, studio recording, education, and therapy, making it one of the most versatile areas of music making. Whether providing subtle rhythmic detail or driving the main groove, percussion instruments allow players to shape feel, dynamics, and expression in ways that support and enhance the music.
