It uses the same capacitive touch sensor to provide 8 finger-sized drum pads and an indicator LED for each pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe added carefully-designed (we drew circles) light channels so that every pad can light up with a tap but none of the LEDs get in your way. It creates a really cool under-lighting effect, too!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it to play music in Python, control software drum synths on your Pi, take control of hardware drum machines, or just build it into an elaborate drum-controlled project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrum HAT can even be used alongside Piano HAT with a Black HAT Hack3r or Mini Black HAT Hack3r!
