Yamaha's FGDP-30 is an all-in-one recording, composition, playback, and groove-crafting machine dedicated to the emerging world of finger drumming.

Each of its 18 performance pads is arranged ergonomically to maximize accessibility while accommodating the distinct workflow needs of working with your hands. Moreover, each pad is equipped to process aftertouch and velocity sensitivity, ensuring you capture every nuance of your performance.
