Logitech wireless drum kit

Hot on the heels of the fabulous PS3/PS2 wireless guitar controller ,Logitech are filling the Guitar Hero controller gap with a drum kit.

This can only be good for the Guitar Hero community with the drum kit receiving the lion’s share of quality and breakage complaints since the World Tour release.

Logitech’s foray into drum controller intends to target many of the quality issues. Comments out of the company indicate an emphasis on quiet pad design, recessed rims (to avoid the clang or accidental hits) and a kick-pedal with adjustable spring tension.

The kit uses an RF USU dongle rather than Bluetooth for signalling to remain backwards compatible with PlayStation 2 versions of the game and to cut down on latency – the killer of rhythm games.
