Not only does it deliver lightning-fast, uber-accurate tracking, the widest dynamic range of any drum module, incredibly drummer-friendly operation, and a massive input section, it also has the most realistic, natural sound set available in any drum module. But that wasn't enough. Of course, the Alesis DM10 has a built-in sequencer, metronome, top-panel mixer, and a variety of outputs, but the DM10 is also the first drum module to give you the ability to update its sound set via standard USB connection with your Mac or PC.Genuine Sounds You will immediately notice the Alesis DM10 module's outstanding sound quality. The module contains true drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds built from uncompressed samples of classic studio drums and prized cymbals.

This engineered realism is known as Dynamic Articulation, an Alesis exclusive.You can play with or without reverb for different room sounds and enjoy a wide variety of rimshots, rim clicks, and different stick-placement sounds on the cymbals. For example, a hi-hat's sound depends on a number of factors—how open or closed the pedal is, how hard it is struck, and other variables. The result is 40 different sounds, plus foot chick and heel splash.Unlimited Sounds The Alesis DM10 drum module not only has a breathtaking collection of onboard sounds, it is also the world's first drum-sound module that enables you to load new sound sets via USB connection from your computer. This means that your sounds will always stay fresh, current, and cutting edge.You can also use the Alesis DM10 module as a trigger-to-MIDI interface for performing and tracking with software drum modules such as BFD, Toontrack, or Reason, among others. For practice, you can play along with the tracks in the DM10's internal sequencer or mix in MP3 player and play along.Inputs and Outputs The Alesis DM10 module has 12 trigger inputs, perfect for creating custom configurations. You can use it with virtually all drum and cymbal pads and acoustic drum triggers thanks to easy-to-configure trigger settings.

Alesis Surge Electronic Cymbal Pack #2 $449 SURGE Pack 2 contains a full setup of SURGE cymbals, the world's first cymbals with built-in electronic triggers. Made in Canada from genuine cymbal brass-alloy, SURGE cymbals have centuries of cymbal craftsmanship in their DNA, cross-bred with Alesis' decades of experience in electronic triggering technology.SURGE Cymbals are among the world's most realistic-looking, accurately responding, and most importantly, natural-feeling cymbal triggers in the world. Not pads in any way, SURGE cymbals are true brass cymbals at their core with exclusive clear sound dampening to cut the cymbals' acoustic sound.SURGE cymbals employ industry-standard piezo triggers, so they are easy to use with any existing electronic drumset, replacing those uninspiring hard black cymbal pads. Because they are cymbals, they mount on any cymbal stand so they are easy to integrate into both electronic and acoustic drum setups using any sound module, drum "brain," or trigger-to-MIDI converter.SURGE Pack 2 contains a 12" hi-hat, a 13" crash with choke capability, and a 16" dual-zone ride with choke capability. A large choke strip on the underside of the crash and ride cymbals sends a message to the sound module to choke the cymbal sound when activated-just like choking any other cymbal.SURGE cymbals are the only cymbals that integrate built-in electronic triggers with a custom brass alloy. They are the only choice for drummers who are serious about feel. |

Drum Rocker can can also be used as a real electronic drum set by connecting it to an Alesis Drum module. The Drum Rocker delivers the most realistic drumming experience available to any gamer.

Just plug the drum and cymbal pads directly into an Alesis Drum module, and you're ready to hit the road for real.Ultra-quiet velocity sensitive pads Drum Rocker's velocity-sensitive drum pads feature a playing surface that is much quieter than other drum controllers.

No matter how much you punish them, the Drum Rocker drum pads are designed to take it.The pads are mounted to the drum rack with a metal L-Arm and clamp system, which allows them to be tilted, swiveled, raised, and lowered to whatever position you want. Just one warning—once you play these pads, nothing else will do!There's nothing like finishing a monster fill by whacking a crash cymbal, or crossing over to play your hi-hat with your right hand while you keep the backbeat on the snare with your left, or keeping time on a ride cymbal during the chorus. Drum Rocker lets you do all that and more, with cymbals that can be placed anywhere around the kit.Drum Rocker comes with two cymbals and mounting hardware out of the box, and a third cymbal is available as an optional accessory. You get to decide how you want to use the two cymbals that come with the kit — set them up as a hi-hat/crash, crash/ride, or hi-hat/ride combination, then add the third cymbal to round out the kit.All-metal kick drum pedal The kick drum pedal with any drum controller takes a lot of abuse. No need to worry with Drum Rocker—this pedal is all metal and built to last. It also has the right amount of tension to replicate the feeling of playing a real drum pedal. The pedal comes with Velcro and retractable spikes, so you can be sure it will stay put. You're not limited to where you place it either—put the kick pedal wherever you feel most comfortable playing it. |
