Great review - thx guys! I was looking at an entry level kit but with some expansion as my skills improve. The nitro was going to be my choice, but I reckon I will spend the extra and get this with the additional sounds etc.
I’m considering this set. Thanks for the review. Also, it’s 2022 and looking back…….. Update it’s been an hour and I bought this set on sale at guitar center. I also bought a strike 12 amp and a double bass pedal.
Good video. Wot a dilemma, though - buy an acoustic kit for £500+ (half the price of this excellent Alesis set) or an electronic drum kit which needs electricity to be properly playable, needs an amplifier, won't annoy the neighbours if you use headphones (hello tinnitus, my old friend...) and costs over a grand. What to do? Buy the E-drum kit!!
Nice presentation, thank you! I heard, there is an issue with the MIDI number for the hi-hat (open/close). So: does the module have the option of a software update (via USB?) and do you think the issue will be solved in any way?
Buy roland drums. If you’re a beginner, I would recommend you to buy td-11 it ranges about $500-$700 but it works good! And start watching stuff on youtube. Hope this helps’
Unsuitable for midi recordings! Because for open and closed hi-hat the Alesis sends identical notes.Or rather you can not set different notes according to general midi standard. Yes I have activated GM mode in the menu.
Excited to receive my alesis crimson special edition very soon

I was debating buying this kit. Decision made. Thanks boys
if you have it can you choke on the cymbals or nah
@@brendanoce3673 I havent tried. I will let you know asap
Yes you can choke the cymbals
@@fizzdrizzle4206 did you buy it
@@aurein1219 I did. I've had the kit for over a year now!! I love it

Have you been happy for the last year?
Does this have multi zone ryde? :)
@@Adrian-vk1cu I never opened it. It just sat in the box untouched until I sold it all last month.
That’s got some really good snare and bass presets
Love you guys you make it more interesting with your humor excellent product keep up the good work!
Super fun, thanks guys!

How different are the features from the Alesis DM 10 MkII Pro module?
Thanks you guys great!!! :)
I am grade 7 just got this thanks guys
This set makes me want to take up drums.
Great review guys. Does the kit allows for a double kick pedal?
it should work fine with one but it doesn’t come with a double kick pedal
hey guys great video, just wondering what kick pedal you used for the use of this kit Thank you
Sounds like an electronic drum set.
I'm sold
Can it handle double bass pedals and patterns?
Noice review
Thanks for tuning in, we're glad you enjoyed the video!
Think this is the one. Thanks guys 🎉
what would you recommend for a musician (of other instruments) wanting to start drums?
Buy roland drums. If you’re a beginner, I would recommend you to buy td-11 it ranges about $500-$700 but it works good! And start watching stuff on youtube. Hope this helps’
Can you assign different sounds to each piece?
about askin' the same question here🖐
Unsuitable for midi recordings! Because for open and closed hi-hat the Alesis sends identical notes.Or rather you can not set different notes according to general midi standard. Yes I have activated GM mode in the menu.
Not entirely complete. The kit sends the same midi note for open and close, but the pedal position is sent as CC4.
Lmao I lost it on kit 22 😂
Looks like good value for money 👍
Now with an updated mesh from the Alesis Strike kit, the Crimson II SE really finds its home as a good feeling kit with great samples!
@@AndertonsDrumDept How long and wide is it? I would like to know to see if it fits in my bedroom
Is that too loud for a ground floor apartment?
Is it compatible with alesis strike cymbals?
Is it possible to get double pedal?
Certainly looks to me like that kick pad will fit 2 beaters. :)
yes it 100% will. I bought this kit and I have a tama iron cobra 900 with it and it works very well
No answers to a single question! I'll go elsewhere
Sounds decent
Any recommendations for a set as close to free as possible?
Yes, ask someone other than these hacks.
Tourtech TT22M. Its ridiculous for the price.
No really, alesis CAN make kits that sound good !
If only they didn't use the crappy hi hat pedal with this kit
Scamdemic ridiculous
