All the Essentials to Start Playing

First, there are the pads: Four 6” adjustable mesh-head drums that feel great without any of the noise that comes with rubber e-drum pads. Each one of the three included cymbals boasts a large 10” playing surface so players never miss a beat. The kick drum and hi-hat are controlled by responsive foot pedals that can be rolled up and put away while not in use. Even the drum sticks are included. Alesis E-Drum Total is the perfect package for any aspiring drummer.

At the heart of E-Drum Total is the feature-packed Alesis module. These kits contain a total of 120 individual drum sounds and utilize Intelligent Dynamic Articulation technology to provide incredibly realistic sound and playability. The sound module can be connected to the included headphones for silent practice day or night. For live shows and jam sessions, connect to an external sound system or amplifier such as the Alesis Strike Amp 8 (sold separately) using stereo ¼" outputs. Plus, there is an ⅛" aux input for jamming out to tunes from a phone or tablet.

Alesis teamed up with Melodics to include 60 free lessons with this E-Drum Total bundle. Available for PC or tablet, Melodic is an app that helps improve timing and expand drumming vocabulary. The lessons make practicing with Alesis drums fun and effective. Melodic provides instant feedback so students know exactly what to work on for next time. It's a great way to build new musical skills.
