Probably because they sound like shit

@@MichaelAlexander-vr2om pretty much

I think most people don’t use the kits I think a lot of people use it as a midi controller. It’s the greatest benefit of it all imo

Because they have to show their chops.

Cause it's a 300$ kit that sounds like 300$ kit.

same

Here in India, I had to pay ~$600 for this.

@@AniruddhJoshi $700 in Turkey

Lol i pay*600 for it

@@AniruddhJoshi $400 in india

Shubham Jogdand From where did you get it for $400?

chris dougherty does require an external speaker or amp? Where does the actual sound resonate from?

@@blkhemi3925 in your head

I've never really played the drums before but I've been wanting to get into a new hobby that is relatively cheap and gets a good cardio workout in. I just saw this on sale for like $349 at guitar center randomly and I think I might go pick something like this up. Is $349 a good deal for this item? Seemed pretty reasonable just wondering if theres a solid starter kit I should look into for lesser? Thanks.

⁠@@ML-kx9gz that’s a very reasonable price and it’s a good kit.

@@ML-kx9gz it's a solid kit. the sounds aren't the greatest but the mesh heads are amazing. if you get tired of the sounds you could hook up a vst from a laptop and get really nice sounds.

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@ML-kx9gzdon’t listen to OP opinion about this he gets payed for this false advertising review but yes it’s a decent kit for beginners or intermediate players for a reasonable price.

Would you mind telling me how everything arrived through Amazon? All pieces in good condition?

1. Do you like it so far? 2. Can you connect bluetooth headphones to it instead of wired headphone? 3. Are the cymbals dual zoned? Can they produce a bell sound?

Randolf Delos Reyes only the snare has a rim sound

@@elizabethbrant54 thanks for the info, looks like im going for the surge mesh then

say it louder for the people at alesis

yeah but its $350....

I’m new to drumming, why is that?

@@raineyraine5887 because the ride has two hit points the ride itself and the bell at the middle

@Rohan Reed maybe mine was messed up but I returned it a day later. Didn’t feel right

Dual zone capable cymbals work but usually means a chokable function. I have this kit. The extension kits cymbal is dual zone. The tom is dual. But the rim may not have a sound assigned to it. If you hear a broken clicking swish. That's just the sensor working. It can be made or assign as a snare. Modules not programmed for 3 zones.

Andreas Nottelmann yeah

That's what I'm hoping for...(double kick pedal).

It literally says in the video that you can add in a cymbal

michael lawton you have the option of using headphones or a monitor amp. Neither of which are included.

Yeah u can use an amp or headset

I play mine thru headphones. Keeps peace in the house & neighbors. Peace

@Number Of sin random 3.5 mm

know Google ?

You can use any sticks and its not the most durable kit in the world but if you dont smash it super hard it shouldnt break for atleast a few years. Mesh heads can break but theyre replacable and wont tear if you dont hit them super super hard

Wysteriant thanks for information..

Jonathan, também tenho uma. Excelente mesmo

Maybe a bit late replying, but no. The Nitro has no sounds ready for 2 or 3 zone rides. But, one of the rides does have a bell sound if you got harder, so that velocity based. Hope this helped!

Yep

Jim Hardy not white, I heard it leaves marks on the bass drum, but it feels better, but up to you?

literally just whatever sticks you like for your acoustic kits

CRAZY does this mesh break easily? n it needs light weight sticks?

Whatever weight, (I has to used lighter sticks) but the tip has to be nylon, wood tip can brake the mesh

Was always told to be careful with nylon tips and mesh heads on electric kits, but standard 7A, 5A, 5B wood tip, any really are fine, I used to work in a music store and have had electric kits, been drumming for 15 years and can tell you that nylon is usually recommended for light jazz, blues drumming etc, not for every day use on mesh head electric kits

@@XxDarklexX Its actually the other way around

Do you have any of your own now? I'd also like to see this

Yes

Cant use a double pedal the kick pad is to small for it will have to upgrade that

Yes, should just fit in there if you position it correctly!

I believe the full package comes in at just under 50 pounds

@@Reaper-fz8oj Is there any Latency or lag when you hit drum pad for Alesis Nitro?

Bumin Kağan It definitely feels totally different from an acoustic kit but the lag is so low that it isn’t noticeable at all

@@Reaper-fz8oj Thank you.

Thanks. I have this kit already and I use double bass pedals.

Which ones do you use, and how did you get them?

KZfaq Machine Thanks a lot for your reply! I actually got impatient and ended up with a choice between a used td11k for EUR 450 or a used yamaha dtx450k for 250 (both in excellent condition & with the same extras). I went with the dtx since I had no idea if I would even like playing drums. With all the comments on every dtx video review being along the lines of "dont get this trash, get a roland instead", I got a bit worried but when I finally picked it up I was actually very pleasantly surprised by the quality and the kit in general. It was also really cheap, so I'll probably be able to sell it without much of a loss if I end up quitting or if I upgrade to the new td17 :)

I’ve heard it can, but most people have trouble as the sensor size of the bass pad is small. It sometimes doesn’t pick up the notes. Single pedal works the best.

Wow really? Or Maybe some people arent in the financial situation to buy a $1000 kit, yet still want to provide a means for whomever to better themselves and this meets and exceeds that need.

Scott Summers I think you misinterpreted my meaning. As stated in the final sentence of my original post: It is a great tool at a great price point. One which I believe, in many cases, will assist kids who may have a cheap-asshole dad who, without access to such a well priced tool, would otherwise buy their kid a wiffle-ball set and tell their kid “there’s no future in music kiddo.” As for the less financially enabled folks, I made no comment whatsoever in that regard. This drum kit is asshole-proof: that was my point. This drum kit helps promote the musical dreams of kids by removing the pathetic excuses of asshole parents: that was my point. Regarding parents of limited income or other resources: I made no point, nor mention. Hope that clears it up for you.

I live in an apartment , and my recording studio is in a small 7 by 12 half bedroom. I don't have the space for a full acoustic drum kit, and even if I did I'd never be able to play them without pissing off the entire building. This kit was a total godsend. I can play and record with them all day every day at all hours and no-one else hears a thing. The build quality, performance, large on board sound palette and compact size of the Alesis Nitro Mesh was a perfect match for what I needed, and it doesn't come off as "entry level" at all. That's what impressed me the most. I couldn't be any happier with it and would gladly recommend this kit to anyone.

I am that father

And then of course there is me who knows a bit how to play but still runs the cats out of the neighborhood.😆

Dan not much. But still, I won’t play it at night when there is people sleep in the next room. Also, the vibrations from the kick travel directly to the floor, and will annoy neighbors downstairs.

Yes

HoshiHearts RetroGaming Even though I’m gonna get this drum set, you are right about this drum set

it's the price of a nice ride cymbal

For starters is alright, if you want more sounds, just buy a new module

nothing a computer a some effects cant change

No

Its eveything you would want

I have both acoustic and electric. These things are alot of fun.

John DeF What is fun is playing an acoustic kit that is all mic’ed up and going through some huge JBL subwoofers. When I hit my kick drum it sounds like an earthquake. This is my idea of fun

when all of your music is done at midnight, it's a good option when you have a family asleep.

tmananddaddy You are right. I did that for many years.

Have an open mind and your life will probably get a lot more enjoyable.

Yep
