I have this multipad i just wish Alesis could make an firmware update for the looping to change the various kits without interruption. Also the knobs been smaller

Does it have Simmons Octo sounds built in?

Sounds great and would work perfectly in the studio for that real drummer feel however it needs about 6 - 8 more Pads. Individual output for each instrument so that users can route them straight into an multi input Audio interface would be awesome.

Then this is not for you. Get a pad kit instead. 🙂

Thanks for the video Nick! How do you export the kits and samples out of the unit. I use protools. It will work fine as a controller in an instrument track with a plugin but I would like to use the kits in my sessions as MIDI. Audio recording is easy. Just can’t export those awesome sounds. Any advice?

@NickCesarzDrums 7 ай бұрын

Easiest option is to send MIDI from Pro Tools into the Multipad and then record the stereo outputs back into Pro Tools.

"This drum looks really cool, but it has so many bugs. You can't change the pitch of the sample in real-time."

I've been following some reviews and there are some people who say there's a problem with their start screen, I was totally interested in buying, but I confess that I've already become quite discouraged, I've seen some that even have to open and change the SD card, even others that have reached return it due to a problem with the motherboard, has yours ever had a defect or even something similar, crashes and such? God Bless bro! Thanks!

@billmint8122 5 ай бұрын

Mine crashed too. I guess the read/write lifespan on the SD card is super small.

Just got this new at a pawn shop for 315! Im a drummer and a producer[Dj Renigade] on twitch and Bandcamp. Cant qait to deep dive this. Love the fact that it is usb audio/midi

yoo that's a steal!

@RenigadeCineTrax 4 ай бұрын

Yep it was. Having issues getting the USB audio out to work properly. I'm using mains out at moment. Made my first sound set already.

@straycat7247 5 ай бұрын

So to add bass drum and hi-hat action you would have to buy external MIDI trigger pedals? Seems like it doesn't accept regular switches like other entry level units.

@user-or4hs7xq9u Ай бұрын

Lots of 2nd hand bass drum pedal and pads

Does this work for a drum loop machine as well or would you recommend a diff product for drum looping?

@NickCesarzDrums 7 ай бұрын

It’s amazing for looping. I haven’t dove deep enough into this feature myself but I know a lot of people use this for accompanying acoustic guitar

@Mike-xq8bv 2 ай бұрын

This is great but I think time and competition caught up with it so I'm looking at the nux I know it's limited but not paying Roland money 😂

@sam19022004 6 күн бұрын

What speaker or earphones suggested to connect for best quality?

@NickCesarzDrums 2 күн бұрын

I like the ATH M50x headphones and for a speaker, the Roland PM-100 or PM-200 won't do you wrong

Isn't nord drum 3p way better? I was blown away be theirs demo/reviews. Alesis pads looks like the same old ones with added lights and whistles.

@NickCesarzDrums 6 ай бұрын

It’s more of a percussion synthesizer but both are cool

Hi this don't need pc?or mobile phone just direct to speaker?

No PC required

This is a cool machine but it can only playback 16 bars of a saved loop. Nearly not along enough to playback for a live performance. I don't get the logic of only 16 bars without ability to repeat a saved loop for continuous playback. It seems that users should be able to create a loop, then trigger - start and stop the loop by hitting a pad. Cool machine but sucks for creating and playing back backing percussion samples for live performances. To do so, you need a midi controller, another piece of gear to deal with on set. Disappointed in this regard.

That snare sounds horribly fake. I don’t even know why they put sounds in these things without using round robin and multi samples. Just USB out into easy drummer or superior drummer.
