“When you’re ready to experience a new premium drum controller or expand your band, you’ll want to rip on Logitech’s new drum controller,” said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech’s director of product marketing for gaming. “With the Wireless Drum Controller, you can mark time, keep the backbeat, color up your riffs and crash down on the cymbal pads. Joining the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller, the new Wireless Drum Controller lets you rock out to your favorite songs on the PS3 system.”

The Logitech Wireless Drum Controller, as it is called, will be released for the PS3 in July. It features three fully adjustable drum heads and two cymbal pads to go along with the Guitar Hero drum set style. Each piece can be positioned to fit your reach and suit your style. The rims are recessed to help make it easier to score points and avoid accidental rim shots. The kick pedal uses a stainless steel surface and an adjustable spring – providing a highly durable, responsive drumming experience. They also claim that it can deliver up to 50 hours of battery life on two AA’s.
