<\/p>\n
NEDERLAND, Colorado \u2013 July 29, 2015 \u2013 AirTurn<\/a>, a leading manufacturer of wireless, hands-free controllers for tablets and computers, announced the AirTurn TAP BT-1<\/a>. The TAP BT-1 pairs AirTurn\u2019s TAP Bluetooth wireless transceiver with the Roland BT-1 Bar Trigger Pad for a reliable interface to tablets and computers for dozens of triggers. With a tap of the drumstick, drummers and other active percussionists can manage drum tabs, lyrics and set lists, queue a metronome, or start and stop backing tracks.<\/p>\n The TAP BT-1 uses all the same features as AirTurn\u2019s BT-106 Series transceiver which has a six button membrane switch. It can be detached and used as a multimode handheld remote control. Users also may purchase the TAP with two Roland BT-1 units for additional control. The TAP BT-1 may be used with the iPad, iPhone, Android tablets and Bluetooth-equipped Mac and PC with over one hundred different applications.<\/p>\n \u201cAirTurn\u2019s TAP has always been easy to use,\u201d said Lester Karplus, Director at AirTurn. \u201cNow it is even more flexible and reliable with the addition of one or two of the compact Roland single-trigger pads. The pads are a bigger target for the musician and triggering is very accurate and precise. Drummers and percussionists will have zero interruption in their performances. AirTurn assures a natural movement to trigger page turns or any other programmed event with a tap of a drumstick. TAP gives drummers the freedom and flexibility to be creative while maintaining control of the resources they need for a great show.\u201d<\/p>\n The TAP BT-1 package includes:<\/p>\n \u00b7 TAP Bluetooth Transceiver Pricing and Availability About AirTurn \u2028![\"bt_1_snare_side_gal__21608.1437422022.44.58\"](\"http:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/bt_1_snare_side_gal__21608.1437422022.44.58.jpg\")
