Alesis Drum Kits

The Alesis Nitro Ultimate electronic drum kit is a versatile nine-piece setup designed ultimate playability. Featuring dual-zone mesh heads on the toms and snare, a mesh kick drum tower with pedal, and dual-zone cymbals with choke functionality, this kit offers a natural feel and expressive control typically found in acoustic kits. Its stand-mounted movable hi-hat controller further enhances playability, allowing drummers to position it to their preference and perform advanced techniques with ease.

Equipped with the Nitro Ultimate Module, this kit comes loaded with 52 built-in drum kits and over 640 professionally designed sounds, providing immediate inspiration and creative possibilities. Bluetooth connectivity enables seamless jamming along with favourite tracks, interactive lessons, or recording sessions. Additionally, users receive a 90-day subscription to Drumeo’s online learning platform, granting access to expert instruction and a vast library of video lessons, alongside the BFD Player software with the Dark Mahogany Expansion Pack for further sound customisation.

The robust four-post steel rack offers a sturdy and flexible foundation, accommodating various playing styles and allowing for custom kit layouts. Whether practising quietly at home or performing with confidence, the Nitro Ultimate combines durability, responsiveness, and an extensive sound palette to support every drummer’s journey.

Stand-Mounted Movable Hi-Hat

The Nitro Ultimate features a stand-mounted hi-hat controller that can be adjusted to suit individual playing styles. Designed to work seamlessly with traditional hi-hat stands (sold separately), this movable hi-hat allows for expressive techniques commonly found on acoustic kits, enhancing realism and control.

Dual-Zone Mesh Drums and Cymbals with Choke

Each of the three 8” toms and the 10” snare are equipped with dual-zone mesh heads, offering quiet, responsive play with the ability to perform rimshots and assign different sounds to the rim for added versatility. The four 10” dual-zone cymbals provide separate edge and bow/tip sounds, complete with choke functionality for nuanced expression.

Nitro Ultimate Module with Extensive Sound Library

The included drum module boasts 52 ready-to-play kits and over 640 sounds, ranging from acoustic drums to electronic percussion. This extensive collection ensures immediate inspiration, while the free BFD Player software allows for deep customisation and sound design.
