Setup was a straightforward process, though I highly recommend following along with the setup video on the Alesis support site. Once assembled, the rack is a bit more wobbly than I would like, but none of the pads appear to be moving or sagging after a week's hard playing (I'm a heavy hitter), so I'm chalking it up as something to keep an eye on, but no immediate concern. The kit itself is very attractive. The white drum heads resemble acoustic drums, and the red trim is nice. The 10" snare is roomy enough for me to swing at without having to aim every stroke, and the 8" toms are large enough for me to hit without having to look at them constantly. All of the pads have great responses; 16th note, single stroke rolls at 150bpm on each pad didn't produce a single missed trigger, and the velocity map in my VST software showed the impacts accurately changing velocity with each change in my impact force, which means I can hear subtle differences in my strokes, just like I would on an acoustic drum. The Alesis drum module does include a Bluetooth feature that allows you to listen to an external music source (it does NOT do audio out, however), which worked seamlessly, however, the drum samples included in the Nitro drum module are not the greatest, and I'd wager that the tom and cymbal sounds are synthesized, not recorded from acoustic instruments. However, if you have access to a Mac or Windows computer it doesn't really matter since Alesis includes a free copy of BFD Player and the Dark Mahogany sound pack, a great piece of Virtual Studio Technology (VST) software, which replaces the Alesis module's sounds with studio recorded samples of real, acoustic drums. All in all, I've been extremely satisfied with what the Alesis Nitro Max delivers, especially considering the price. The real bass drum pedal is a plus, as well as the open and half open triggers on the high hat pedal. I especially loved the versatility of the cymbal mounts, which can be positioned just about anywhere (if you're a tinkerer who likes to adjust your drums every day, you'll love this). I'm a beginner who (I think) is in the process of transitioning to an intermediate player, and at this point in my development I need a kit that accurately reproduces what I'm playing. So far, the Alesis Nitro Max has fit the bill perfectly. I would strongly recommend that anyone searching for a versatile and solid sounding kit for beginning or intermediate players take a long, hard look at this drum set. Read more

Montaje fàcil i efectivo. Si vas a montar un ampli Alesis en el marco tendràs que desmontar alguna barra, montalo antes. Suena perfecto. El pedal kick se desliza, necesitas alguna alfombra de base o tope al fondo (lleva dos tornillos para clavar, dónde?). La unidad de sonido sencilla de entender, quizás el metrónomo suena elevado (o no encontré como regularlo). Necesitas un cables jack 3,5 mm a usb c para conectar samsung. Jack entrada auriculares de 3,5mm. Se plega con facilidad, pero debes calcular el paso entre elementos o aflojarlos todos para bajarlos si quieres plegado completo. Read more

Great value for money. Read more

Bateria muito boa, atendeu todas as expectativas. Read more

No 5 stars here as the assembly instructions were terrible. Don't add letter codes on the drawings if not repeated on the parts. Pointless! Otherwise great set that my son is loving. Read more

Móntale laborioso sin duda en cuanto monte el cableado la probaré pero buenas sensaciones al montarla Read more

Das Alesis Nitro Max Kit ist einfach aufzubauen und bietet ein authentisches Spielgefühl, das dem eines echten Schlagzeugs nahekommt – perfekt für private Übungs-Sessions! Die Presets sind vielfältig und können nach persönlichem Geschmack angepasst werden. Besonders positiv ist das gute Rebound-Verhalten der Pads, was für ein realistisches Spielerlebnis sorgt.

I think this is probably the best budget kit available on Amazon. This kit has several HUGE advantages and very few relatively minor issues as far as I was able to notice. Pros: 1) High quality construction 2) Very good drum module with many features 3) A metronome with 3 different sounds to select from - this is HUGE plus! It is also very robust, you do not need to buy any external metronome. 4) Bluetooth connectivity works like a charm! 5) The module has a holder for phone or tablet, very convenient 6) The module allows you to change/assign midi codes for each item in the kit - this is HUGE! 7) The module has USB-B midi port, you can use to connect your iPad and leverage on midi integration. This is very useful for games and learning (among other things). 8) Additional parts are available for purchasing 9) The drums module acts as mixer for your drums and whatever external stereo audio source you may want to use (I usually use Youtube on iPad). In other words, no need to buy separate mixer unless you want to connect microphones or more than one audio source. Cons: 1) Included assembly instruction guide is useless. It is impossible to understand anything there. I suggest to watch youtube video "Alesis Nitro Max Mesh Kit setup guide", it should help, but please allocate at least one hour for assembly. 2) The kit does not include audio and USB adapters/cables to connect your headphones and tablets (I will list all the additional cables you need below) 3) The module does not have standard midi ports, it only offers midi connectivity via USB. Note, only midi can be sent via USB, no audio. For audio connectivity you need to use bluetooth or 3.5mm audio cable. 4) Tom-2 has incorrect midi code, you will need to change it in the settings of the module from 45 (low tom) to 47 (low-mid tom) 5) User manual for the module is not included, you need to download it from the manufacturer web site 6) Audio sound is relatively weak, you may need to buy mini preamp... I am still testing a few options here. This is optional though. 7) The electric kit is not completely silent though, people around will hear you hitting toms with sticks. You can buy dumpers for your drumsticks, but dumpers can reduce the noise, not eliminate it. Expansion Pack: I highly suggest to purchase expansion pack from the Alesis, it is called Alesis Drums Nitro Max Expansion Pack. Headphones: You have probably purchased this kit to practice silently using headphones. If you want to teach your child, you may need two pairs of headphones that can be connected to each other, so you can hear your child playing. I picked OneOdio Over Ear Headphone, Wired version. Headphones come with two cords, black (3.5), and red (1/4). You only need the red cord. However, you will need to also buy 1/4 Female Stereo to 2 X 1/4 Male Mono Y Splitter since the module has two 1/4 female mono jacks for left and right channels. For midi connectivity with iPad (mine has lighting connector and headphones jack) you may need: 1) USB A Male to USB B Male Cable 2) Apple Lightning to USB3 Camera Adapter 3) I like to use mobile application X Drum - 3D & AR, it has very good midi integration (make sure to change midi code for tom 2 as listed above) For iPad audio connectivity: 1) Bluetooth can be used 2) Instead I am using 3.5mm stereo male to male Audio Cable to connect module with iPad through iPad headphones jack. My summary and conclusion: I like this kit, and to my opinion it worths its price. Read more

Bought the drum kit for my 8 y.o. as he started to take drum lessons. The buttons in the module is simple and easy to understand, a number of selection of sounds can be chosen as well. The drums has a bluetooth that you can connect on the iPad. What's more exciting is the free 90 day Drum lessons online and no credit card required when you register, this is perfect for those who's starting in drum lessons. Take advantage of it! The only downside for me is the stability of the frame, it's a bit wobbly but only if you shake it a little. I've owned a Yamaha electric drum before and that one is more sturdy than Alesis. Though this is not a deal breaker for me as it doesn't wobble while playing the drums. Read more

La batería en general es muy buena, es la única batería eléctrica que he visto y probado por eso no podría compararla contra otros productos de otras marcas, la compré para que mi hijo tome clases de batería y puedo decir que es un producto de gran calidad en cuanto a materiales los acabados son de primera, el módulo viene muy completo, tiene tantas funciones que apenas hemos explorado poco, solo la enciendes y está lista para tocar, el rack queda algo frágil pero no por una mala fabricación, sino mas bien por que los tambores y la posición de la misma la obligan a moverse, pero cuando estás tocando no sientes que se mueva o se vaya a caer, en donde mas destaca es en los tambores, la malla se siente muy bien, es muy silenciosa y es muy sensible, sin duda es una gran tecnología que utilizar en los tambores, la malla y los sensores, aparte se ven muy bonitos, en donde creo que no destaca mucho es en los platillos ya que al ser de goma son mas ruidosos y no tan sensibles, la sensación no es tan buena como en los tambores, en el futuro deberían buscar otras opciones de material para los platillos, la tengo conectada a un amplificador y es mas que suficiente, suena fuerte y se puede ensayar, pero cuando realmente quedas impresionado del sonido es cuando le conectas unos buenos audifonos, con cancelación de ruido y buen bass, la batería se escucha sorprendentemente bien, ni notas el sonido de los tamboras y los platillos y entra mas le pegas mas quieres seguir tocando, puedes poner musica desde tu celular y escharla al mismo tiempo en los audifonos conectados a la bateria gracias al bluetooth, suena genial, si te gusta la batería te la pasas tocando un buen rato escuchando sus diferentes kits de batería, en general es una gran batería a un precio que en lo personal se me hace muy bajo comparado con marcas profesionales como yamaha o roland Read more
