Alesis Strike Multipad

Alesis has launched the Strike Multipad, which is a percussion pad with an arsenal of effects for the modern drummer.

A quick glance at the Strike Multipad will tell you that it’s no ordinary electronic drum pad. Stacked with 32GB of storage with over six GB of content – including loops, drums and percussion, and melodic instruments – it’s pretty far from ordinary. Still not impressed? The Strike Multipad also doubles up as a two-in/two-out USB audio/MIDI interface.

Despite such comprehensive functions, the new device is relatively easy to use. Sampling is made simple with a built-in sampler that allows you to record via USB, smartphone, microphone or any other audio device of your choosing.

Alesis Strike Multipad

In terms of performance, the Strike Multipad features nine velocity-sensitive pads with customisable RGB lights, which come in handy on dark stages. The device also has multiple built-in effects processors: three kit effects, a master effect, a compressor and an EQ.

If all of that isn’t enough, the Strike Multipad also allows you to supersize your setup with external triggers and pedals: three external drum/cymbal triggers, two dual foot controls, and a hi-hat pedal.

The device ships an exclusive version of Pro Tools | First – Alesis Edition and Ableton Live 10 Lite.
