Product update. I had mine for 47 days before it quit working. Fantastic product. It is for the features it has. The best multipad out there. I exchanged mine for the Yamaha multi 12. And am very happy. The Alesis reliability issues kept me from getting another one. I will wait a few years for them to work out the bugs before I consider another one. Hope yours is still working
Ben Pursehouse The sound cut in and out on my headphones and then it just cut out permanently. I tried connecting to the 1/4 output to a monitor and it also wouldn’t work. So like I said earlier in my comments months ago I went with the Yamaha dtx multi 12. The Alesis is the best out there for what it does but for reliability which Alesis has always had issues and I experienced it which confirms all the complaints and went with older but reliable Yamaha which is still a beast.
@@MRG_88 I would've returned it and got another one if it was within warranty. I had a loose connection in the back after only a couple months and got a new one delivered after one phone call.
@@Deech72 yea i could have easily gotten another one as I had the pro-coverage but decided to go with the yamaha. I am happy have no regrets. I also have an akai mpc one and that thing alone is a beast especially with recent update so for sure have best of both worlds. Anyway enjoy yours
Great review man! That's a pretty sweet piece of tech! I have the SPD-SX but have always been bummed that I can't use it for live loops - it has no way to cut loops to a perfect loop length unless you cut them in your DAW and export! This seems like a good middle ground between the spd-30 and the SX - I might have to check it out... Cheers for the info!
I'd like to see a vid of you sampling your drum set, triggering from the pads and then exporting it into Logic, in addition show the music notation for a super deep tutorial. A lot to ask for.. I'm so glad you're hip to the hybrid setup.
I'm considering selling my Roland SPD SX to buy this one. The looping functionality is something that I really need, and also the extra storage (2GB spd vs 32GB alesis). I wish the SPD SX had those things. Thanks for the review!
I used to really dislike Alesis products. I don't need another multipad, and I still prefer my Nord Drum 3p, although it's in a different niche, with different features. That said, I gotta hand it to Alesis, this Multi Pad screams quality and looks like a solid alternative to the latest SPDSX. They've really improved since the Strike Pro. Good stuff.
the new alesis mesh kits are spectacular for the price. they're really pulling a Kia and turning around the brand's quality, while keeping the low price.
Yeah nice Austin! Always enjoy your videos. Seems like they finally brought out a worthy opponent to the Roland SPD SX! Actually I don't like Alesis products that much, cause they often used to be quite cheesy. But this looks good!
Got one this week, very powerfull and a lot of fun. So many samples (8000), plays all kinda genres from rock, jazz, world, electronic. The built in FX are very good, with my synths I use seperate pedals (except KingKorg) but Alesis did a great job on this too.
Interesting! I've been thinking about buying a Roland SPD SX, but I think I'll research this Alesis Strike Multipad further before making a final decision on that. We'll see what Roland announces at NAMM, if anything, for the SPD. This is very cool though.
Awesome video man!!! Really shows how one could add this in to an acoustic set up...or just make tunes as a stand alone unit... Now, just need to sell a kidney and I'm gonna order it.....
Hi Austin ....Tony from London UK ....great practical user intro vid to using the Alesis multi-pad with an acoustic kit 👍👍 ....I have mine on order , as I'm travelling down the hybrid e-drum /acoustic kit path and am going to start using it in my live gigs 😀
@@lechlerguttersllc9553 sounds like you got a lemon. I did end up purchasing one three years ago and I’ve used it on 100+ gigs a year with my band. No problem uploading samples, no functionality issues. The one big criticism I have of it is that the interface is not user friendly. For something produced in 2020ish, the workflow used to program banks of pads, rename banks and samples, etc is 1980 Atari level suck.
My teacher had an acoustic Tama and an electronic Roland. I was never a huge fan of the Roland but this looks pretty good as you can use it as an accessory rather than alternative.
On paper, this looks perfect to me. It sounds good. The design is player-centered. I just want to get a feel of the build quality. The Sample Pad felt like it would last 3 - 4 weeks. I'm hopeful about this one.
Thanks for the video, very clear! So i guess one could sample an entire backing track for a song and assign to one of the pads...and then just trigger the pad and jam on top? Also when looping... could I assign different length loops to different pads? So for example, if I do a 1 bare drum loop and have it on pad 1, could I then do a 4 bare loop (for example a 4 bare guitar chord sequence) and have it on pad 2? Thanks again! :)
Hi austin, can you tell us if it’s possible to sync the built in metronom with the different pads ? Actually i made loops with music on left and click on right with my SPD-SX 🤷🏻♂️ Or may be is it possible to route to different out the two samples on the same pad? Thanks a lot and keep going 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great video. Sample editing seams a bit awkward, but like you say, edit in logic... Is it possible to trigger a loop beforehand, like in novation launchpad where you can trigger a loop just before the beat and it will start playing on cue. Thanks for the upload!
Great review Austin. Looks great and I'm definitely interested. You're doing a great job with everything. Your vids are great, and your series on drum recording is fantastic. That helped me so much. Where do you get your samples from?
Thanks for the informative video. A couple questions about the looper (which is not covered as much by reviews): - Can you have the click exclusively on headphones so it won't be heard on audio outs? - Can you save a loop in a file and assign it to a pad so that you can switch between loops, all this while doing a live performance?
Thanks! I just tune the snare by instinct and feel, but I go pretty dang tight on both top and bottom. I go into it in depth in the tuning course on my website if you wanted to check that out.
Austin, thank you so much for this video. This is exactly what I needed and I'm so gonna buy this thing now. I have one question though, is it possible to connect a midi keyboard for example and record/loop stuff from that into the Alesis?
there should be a trigger record setting no? instead of having to hit record then hit a sample followed by having to truncate? if not they should def include that in a software update
You are really gifted. I will acquire this beast in about two weeks as I am a percussionist and this is very mobile. I dont want to play percussion on my keyboard even though it will give similar sounds. I have a good keyboard (Yamaha PSR SX 900). Can I plug this straight into an amp and start using or do I need a laptop? Finally does this have African drums on it such as the talking drum which is a specialist sounding hand played drum from Nigeria? Thanks.
Excellent video. Your drum mix has certainly gotten better, even though I dislike your preference for snare sound xD. The cymbals sound gorgeous - i hate the stupid squashed overhead sound
Do you know if this multipad allows us to play the loop at different tempo on the fly (based on how I trigger it)? Any suggestion on sample pads which has this feature?
@@derrickh9648 Being a big Roland fan myself, I'd have to say you are completely wrong. This device is surprisingly a game changer when it comes to multipads. There was a lot of thought put into it from a mechanical standpoint and from a software standpoint. I'd be really surprised if Roland has an answer for this any time soon. Maybe this isn't as big a deal for people that are just focused on percussion, but for live performers and studio production, this has a lot of uses that go beyond just drums. It's an audio interface, a sampler, a looper, a midi device, a laptop replacement for live synth performance, the list goes on. I'm just beginning to scratch the surface of what I can use this for. And for anyone worrying about the quality- I can tell you first hand this is not a normal Alesis product- this is high end, but it also not as affordable as a normal Alesis product either. It really makes the SPD look pretty dated for about the same price if not a little less.
@@grajmahal I haven't played this, but I'm extremely impressed with what I see/hear about it. I was referring more universally, big picture, long term... You won't find many professionals using this or any Alesis products compared to Roland, certainly not for live use. But this unit does seem very impressive. Maybe I'm just regretting my spd-sx purchase a few months ago lol.
@@derrickh9648 Yes, I agree that most professionals wouldn't normally consider an Alesis product for live use, but I think this particular product is different. There seems to be a fair amount of buzz about it among electronic musicians and DJ's for use as a laptop replacement in live settings. And I gotta say I see no reason that it won't hold up as this is not built like their other multipads. But as much as I think it's great, I certainly wouldn't regret having purchased an spd-sx prior to this coming out. I think for anyone that is out to purchase a multipad- we all have our wants and needs. For most the Roland one is a safe bet and proven winner. There are no guarantees with this one so early in the game. And like I said, I'm not a full on "drummer"- I'm really a guitarist trying to be a one man band, that is dabbling with electronic instruments- so the extra features this brings has made a multipad a very useful tool.
Made up to see a review of this with some actual playing of the kit with it. Seems like a great tool, particularly good for buskers too. I think I'm going to try merging my Roland TD11K with my acoustic kit to see how i get on with that. Then in October hopefully test this out at the UK Drum Show, then figure out if I could justify spending the cash on one of these. As someone who's never used a product like this, if anyone has any advice or input to help me make a more informed decision, I'd very much welcome that :)
great review! is there a way to change the velocities on the pads so you trigger more silent closed hi hats that open up as you hit harder for example? I think on the site it says a max of 2 sounds per layer, but are these sounds all velocity sensitive?
I can't play on it at home my family get so nervous cause the pads are solid and making big loud noise even when I play with headset and then when I go to the next page there's delay waiting for loading
I had a Yamaha multi 12 and it was great .. But it's internal memory was too small. The user interface really difficult to use , too many sub menus, and not enough information on the internet. This looks a lot more easy to use with that great display. Can you do multi samples, layers ABC and velocity triggers? Greets from Germany :)
I've got a question which hasn't been covered by any of these videos on CZcams so I'm really hoping you guys will read this :-). Let's suppose I want to load up the Alesis Strike with my own snare sample and I want it to have it's own velocity range depending on how hard I hit a pad with said sample on it. Would I need to upload 127 samples for each velocity or can I just upload one sample at a "normal" volume and the Multipad will do the rest for me? Does the Pad Work with the strike editor software? Thanks in advance! :-)
Good morning! Does anybody knows if Alesis strike pad have tempo synch, in order to change tempo to the internal loop and layer functions also, in order to have two sounds sample in one pad? Please let me know cause I'm interested to buy this instrument! Thanks a lot in advance! Cheers from Italy!
I’ve been interested in this piece of gear for quite some time now. I was just about to order an Alesis Strike MultiPad Percussion Pad but I need a very important question answered first. I know the Alesis Strike MultiPad Percussion Pad is capable of so much more, but I plan to use it only as a drum kit. I’m now in a situation where there is a physcial space and volume limitation. There’s not enough space for an electronic drum kit. It would be great to just walk in with this pad, a stand, and a foot and hi hat controller. QUESTION: When the Alesis Strike MultiPad Percussion Pad is used as/like a drum kit, is the hi hat able to be played/controlled closed, half open and sloshy? Or is it just closed or fully open? Thank you!
This review is even better than the official alesis videos thanks

Dont buy it unless your satisfied with what they load on it. Mine will not take any exterior samples.

what do you thinnk about this one vs the new version of the roland spd sx ? 16 gb and the price is higher
You can check forums and some videos. You can upgrade the memory of the spd sx. The inbuilt memory is actually an sd card in it.
How much
Great overview. Thanks for putting it together. Just picked one up today and looking forward to creating with it.
The fact that you can sequence and loop is dope. The Roland SPD doesn't let you do that. I'm getting this.
I’m buying this thanks for the demo .
Thanks Austin for this review! I'm waiting to see what Roland comes out with at NAMM. If nothing, I'm going to purchase the Alesis.
I really love this new alesis product, looks great too.
So cool illustration! Makes me "wanna must get this for myself":) I'm really diggin' it too!

Did you just go from the main outs on the Alesis into inputs on your audio interface? Unsure how you would link this in to an audio interface. Thanks!
amazing vid mate, good info
Austin, could you PLEASE release a full solo of that opening part??
Thanks for very good review and informations . Please make more videos.
there should be a trigger record setting no? instead of having to hit record then hit a sample followed by having to truncate? if not they should def include that in a software update
How accurate are the pads? Can you play rolls and diddles? What about flam drags? Thanks
