Here are some official demo videos for the new Korg Wavedrum.
The Korg Wavedrum can be used as a stand-alone percussion instrument, or integrated into an existing drum kit or percussion rig. The Wavedrum uses a real drum head as the playing surface, providing an authentic and familiar feel. This allows the performer to employ sticks, brushes, mallets and/or traditional hand-drum techniques (mute, slap, bend, etc.) to play. Read more…

Korg has announced official specs on the new Korg Wavedrum percussion synthesizer.
The original Korg Wavedrum was introduced to the music world back in 1994. Now Korg has announced its next-generation Wavedrum Digital Percussion Synthesizer.
Wavedrum can be used as a stand-alone percussion instrument, or integrated into an existing drum kit or percussion rig. Unlike digital trigger-based systems, WAVEDRUM uses a real drum head as the playing surface, providing an authentic and familiar feel. This allows the performer to employ sticks, brushes, mallets and/or traditional hand-drum techniques (mute, slap, bend, etc.) to play with comfort and confidence.
The Korg Wavedrum Digital Percussion Synthesizer will be available in January 2010. Pricing is TBA.
Details below. Read more…

Sneak Preview: This is a demo of the Korg Wavedrum Percussion Synthesizer.
I haven’t seen an official announcement or specs on this from Korg, yet.
The original Korg Wavedrum is a rarity, but is sought after by many. Sound on Sound said this of the original:
The Wavedrum is a unique instrument which will probably sell mainly to percussionists, with some going to other musicians rich enough to indulge in non-essential gear. While it’s not without its faults, these appear to be outweighed by its undoubted appeal and playability, and by the prospect of exciting future spin-offs.
