Description

You have two different types of outputs on every drum module we make- your main audio outputs and your USB output. These have very different functions and are going to determine how you proceed. Your USB output is only going to send the raw midi messages from your hits to your computer. That means information like what drum you hit, how hard you hit it, and how long you let the note ring. It does not include the sound. With the use of music software, it’s easy to record your performance and use VST Instruments. I suggest doing so, as the sounds included with the Turbo Mesh are not the greatest. Let’s Talk About the Sounds

All four pads have tunable tension rods, allowing adjustment of the head tightness. Mesh heads are often very bouncy, so bringing them down a bit can sometimes help feel more natural. The Cymbal PadsAlso, you can program the processor to produce different sounds using MIDI I/O and ¼” and 1/8” I/O, as there is a provision for this on the module.

For young drummers learning, Alesis provides three great learning tools with the module — a metronome, drum coach, and 40 free lessons from Melodics ( read my review on Melodics here ). I’d almost opt for eliminating the bell sound at that point. I doubt there’s a way to program that, given the limited module functionality. Getting Around the Sounds Playing on the kit will give a feel and experience similar to playing on an acoustic drum set, with the way it is set up and the fact that it is made of mesh head further enhances this experience. The cymbals are fully shaped and nut half cut out like some other low priced electronic drum kits like the Yamaha DTX450K. Mobile devices like phone and tablets, including laptops, can be connected to the module via the ‘ Aux‘ input to play along to songs from streaming platforms and also Youtube tutorials.

Sorry

The Alesis Turbo Mesh Electronic Drum kit is a seven-piece drum kit consisting of cymbals and mesh head pads produced with the next-generation Alesis Mesh head technology, to give clean, crisp and realistic sound output close to what is obtained on an acoustic kit. Both connections have their positives and negatives and it's important to do your own research before you try one or the other- an interface will probably cost as much as a good drum plugin that is on sale; the real difference being that Midi notes can be edited and quantized for mistakes and mixing, whereas you get you get what you get from your audio output and you will need to do your mix of the drums before you begin recording. Another dope feature of the Alesis Turbo Mesh Electronic Drum heads is that the tension and sensitivity of the heads can be tuned and adjusted. The Mesh heads enable the drum player to have freedom of expression and utmost flexibility, playing the kit while getting realistic, natural response and feel of the kit. What You Get When You Unbox the Alesis Turbo Mesh Electronic Drum Kit The Drum Coachfeature has five drum exercises that help build your stamina, work your groove, and improve your timing.

Alesis is a name renowned for the production of top-notch electronic drum kits. The quality of the brand speaks for itself as it is a go-to brand for many drummers who are users of electronic drum kits. They make electronic kits that are both suitable for the young beginner and kid drummers and the advanced drum player, each perfectly tailored to meet the needs of each class of drum player.

For example, my kit, the Alesis Strike, doesn’t even have great sounds to my ears. That kit is 5x the price of the Turbo Mesh and has a much better module. While this feature is nice, the transition between the velocity ranges is very noticeable. Cymbal Velocities To get started you'll only need to plug your kit directly into your computer via a USB cable. All of our devices are class compliant, so if you run into any connection issues please be sure to eliminate any hubs or connectors between the computer and your module.

The samples sound dull and lifeless to my ears. For practice, this shouldn’t be much of an issue. Velocity-Sensitive Sampling Although the drums are quite small in size, it is adjustable for different size of drum players. It is very easy to set up the kit and get it running as the assembly guide gives a detailed explanation on how to set up each part of the kit seamlessly. Although the sounds on the Turbo Mesh kit are not the best, it is decent enough as you get good response while playing on the kit.

Please also note that every pad on your kit is assigned a midi note that may need to be changed to trigger the right sample in the program you are attempting to use. Your user guide will have more information on changing the midi notes for your individual kits, but you may need to go to the program's manufacturer to find out what those midi notes are. A mesh head is made from a stretched material to create skins similar to those found on an acoustic drum kit. They are very much suitable for beginner drummers to learn and practice with as opposed to kits with a rubber head. As the name suggests, the Alesis Turbo Mesh Electronic Drum kit was produced using the next-generation Alesis Mesh head drum technology. It comes with 10 different drum kit presets which include 4 electronic drum kit sounds, 4 acoustic drum kit sounds, an Afro-Cuban sound set and a Chinese sound set. These different sounds enable the drummer to try different new things while getting familiarised and developing his drumming skill.
