Piano pad sounds like other instruments

Piano pad has 17 keys with a feature that makes it sound like another instrument. Pros: The volume of the mat can be adjusted by pressing the mat. It can be very loud or very quiet. It can record a playable song. It will be overwritten if you press the record button again. One great feature I've found is that after I've recorded and played it back, I can play it back by playing another instrument. The underwater design is very cute and I love the colors. The mat is sufficiently padded for the child to use it comfortably. I have two ways to turn the piano mat on and off. I can turn it on and off either by pressing the button on the big plastic thing on the right side of the mat or by pressing the button on the mat. While it was a bit odd to have two ways to turn it on and off, after my child played with it and left it unattended all day, I found it easier to squeeze with my feet than bend down to get it turn off. . This block on/off switch lights up when mate is played. I would have liked it better if the whole mat lit up when you pressed the buttons, but my kid likes it that way. It is easy to store and clean. Cons: It works better with smaller feet since the pad isn't as big, and smaller feet allow the buttons to be pressed individually. You have to keep pressing the volume to adjust the volume. It would be easier if I could just hold down the button to adjust. When the pad is turned off, the volume increases to a higher volume instead of staying at the same level until it's turned off.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
