Drumpad Input Module

The Drumpad Input Module is a custom input module for the Framework Laptop 16 created by community member Pitstoptech. It replaces an input module slot with velocity-sensitive drum pads, turning the Framework 16 into a portable music production tool12.

Design

Following the same concept as the Piano Keyboard Input Module, this module uses velocity-sensitive pads that function as a USB MIDI device, allowing beat-making and drum programming directly from the laptop's input deck12.
