Not everyone wants that. A lot of players just want drums behind them at home or at a small gig, without spending an evening loading beat libraries first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mini 2 is that version. Genre, song and tempo sit on the front panel, the display shows what is playing, and the single footswitch handles fills, transitions and endings by tap and hold. Nothing needs programming and nothing needs a computer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInput and footswitch jacks are on the side, so it drops into an existing pedalboard chain. For practice at home, for a coffee shop set, or as a first step before deciding whether the full pedal is worth it, this is where most people start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingular Sound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeatBuddy Mini 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFormat\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompact pedal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eControl\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle footswitch, tap and hold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePanel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenre, song and tempo controls with display\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput and footswitch jacks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProgramming\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 x 5 x 2.5 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingular Sound limited warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is the Difference Between the Mini 2 and the BeatBuddy 2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mini 2 is simpler and smaller, with a fixed built-in beat set and no content loading. The BeatBuddy 2 adds a much larger library, custom content, MIDI sync and external footswitch control. The Mini covers the core idea at a fraction of the complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDoes the Mini 2 Need a Computer?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Genre, song and tempo are set on the front panel and nothing needs loading or programming. Plug in and play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Can the Footswitch Do?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTap drops in a fill, hold moves the arrangement to the next section, and tapping twice ends the song. That covers the transitions a normal song structure actually needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWill It Fit on a Pedalboard?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. It uses a standard compact pedal footprint at 6 by 5 inches, with the jacks on the side so it chains normally with other pedals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Singular Sound\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingular Sound started with a single idea: put a real drummer's timing and phrasing into a stompbox a solo player can operate with one foot. The original BeatBuddy was funded on Kickstarter in 2014 and the company has stayed narrow since, building the BeatBuddy line, the Aeros looper, the MIDI Maestro and the SuperSwitch as one connected system rather than a scattered catalogue. The products sync to each other over MIDI and share a content library, which is why solo performers and worship musicians tend to end up with more than one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Singular Sound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44798561386547,"sku":"BBM2-USA","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/9095\/files\/00151835_1z.jpg?v=1788117653","url":"https:\/\/www.victorymusical.com\/products\/singular-sound-beatbuddy-mini-2-drum-pedal","provider":"Victory Musical Instruments","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
