Beatbuddy, developed by Singular Sound, a company founded
by David Packouz to bring innovative new tools to musicians, was invented out of frustration at not being able to find a drum machine that enabled hands-free live control of a beat.

Other drum machines are either complicated table-top devices that are difficult, if not impossible, to control while jamming or are loopers that grant no control of a single repetitive beat loop — no fills, no rhythm changes, no accent hits, no tap tempo, no pause/unpause feature, and of course no computer interface.

With detailed input from the musician community, the BeatBuddy was designed to be the perfect solution to this frustration. The power of a drum machine, the simplicity of a pedal.
