Our take
I gave the LEKATO PD708 a try, and it's a solid sample pad for electronic drumming or triggering samples. The 9 velocity-sensitive silicone pads feel decent under your fingers, responsive enough for basic patterns. I liked that it's programmable with built-in effects and MIDI, which adds flexibility for live jams or studio work. The size is manageable, though at nearly 7 pounds it's not ultra-portable. The included ports (3.5mm and 6.35mm) cover headphones and speakers well. My main caveat: there's no stand or mounting hardware included, so you'll need a flat surface. Also, the silicone pads might not satisfy hard-hitting drummers—they're better for light tapping. For the price, it's a good entry-level unit for beat makers.
