Alesis did a wonderful job and really raised the bar with this drum kit. At this price you get all round playable cymbals, dual zone drum pads and a module with sd card and enough inputs for expansion. Great review Samus
Great writing my friend time for roland to step up their game especially in that price category the great joy and the effects of competition roland isn't alone anymore and that's great alesis made an amazing all round package congratulations to them for that achievement.
@@Lemordison92 Roland's equivalent to this is probably 10k. No wait, they don't have an equivalent, the TD-50x has a 4 inch 256 x 80 dots display LMAO
@@reezlaw Let's wait and see my friend times have changed.
Yeah I can't believe how good those cymbals sound.
14:36 That one was a missed opportunity for a rickroll 😂
And I thought "Why does this sound so familiar" 🤣
Or a Twinkie!
More like, Together Forever - RIck Astley, which I like more than Never Gonna Give You Up
XD
Whats a Rick rolls
Hate to be that guy but that was not "Never gonna give you up" by Rick Astley, it was actually the intro of "Down under" by Men at Work
I'll never understand why most drummers shun eDrums. I'd so much rather play these on stage -- especially if you're playing covers. The ability to hone in on the exact sound (per song) AND the ability to control the volume makes kits like this automatic for me.
These are great, bro! Alesis has come a LONG way.
And no need for mics or outboard gear for EFX's 👏

When you play e drums, and then switching to an acoustic one, the moment of truth comes. Real drums are for the real world. Believe me, I know it well, as no one else.It’s pretty much depends on what music we play. If you’re more like a jazz musician, edrums are not for you. I have them only for practicing. They can’t replace conventional drum kit by all means, and they never will... though… I like this strata module.
I think electric kits on stage lose the presence of the sound as its just coming through the pa with everything else, I think you can really feel the air move through the drums when you're in a room with them and I think that makes them acoustically pretty different that speakers alone wouldn't recreate.
On the other hand I think hybrid setups are great live, those pads have got to be better than neil peart's e kit ! They've gotten drastically so much better and I'd want to have a hybrid setup with some of these, perfect sound
@@marvinhanson9391 I have a Gewa G9 hybrid edrum kit. It doesn’t make a difference to me. Electrical drums can’t give control over the sound as an acoustic does. Magic happens, when you play an acoustic drums, unlike from edrums.
Its not the kit,,it's the player and that's samus,,he's the bomb. ❤
i agree with you however back in the 90s electric kits were either decent or just straight up doo doo fart 🤣
@@TanMann23Glad this isn't the '90s as far as e drums go. Tech is catching up very well and you can have hundreds of kits at your stick-tips which sound hella-yurrr-good.
To all the die-hard acoustic purists, your concerns are respected and understood, however, this is no longer the '80s or '90s.
@themechaniacal1558
Yeah man.... exactly!
The sensor technology might be the same but anyway, it work pretty well. In addition the drum brain with real samples and a large screen is really cool.
I am doing VST since 2019 and I was really flashed using a cheap MPS 850 and EZDrummer2 for about 600€ (~$600). I mean I got already an audio interface and stuff so... wooohhaa.
Since then...now using SD3 and Audiofront modules and ...man... hardly to imaging going back to just a stinky acoustic set. 😅
I did some DIY things for the triple zone hihat for a few bugs. And ... for it is already a passion!
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY HE IS SOOO CREATIVE AND PLAYED ALMOST EVERY GENRE IN THE BOOK
Hilarious
El Estepario Siberiano did a review on this kit as well. Apparently he's had one for several months and had been giving Alesis feedback on it which he said they incorporated a lot of into the final product. This thing really looks and sounds impressive, if I ever need a new kit it's one of the first ones I'd look at.
I totally love how no one will ever stop talking that dude! Especially on a completely badass, hard-working, hilarious and incredibly humble drummer’s channel. We get it- El Estepariba de la Verga (I think I MIGHT’VE got his name wrong) is TOTALLY awesome, LOVES his own playing and is totally into himself on every level… but I prefer a humble, silly and INSANELY badass Canadian (right? He’s so nice he’s GOTTA be) over El Este Es Mí Fundio anyway. Hey- it’s just MHO! I’m allowed to have one, this is ‘Murica damnit! 😂
I'm with you on that. I'm over estepario. He's very arrogant and seems like a douche. The biggest rain though is the fact that he refused to pay someone who completed his challenge. Samus is the best to follow
@@jamesbixler3711 WHAT?!! He really did that to someone? Even bigger douche than I know! What a total diddler
@jamesbixler3711 He's a good drummer, but it's going to take a lot more than one handed drumming, metronome-perfect timing, and fast fills to be a great drummer. People often come out saying it's jealousy/envy, but there are a lot of amazing drummers out there, and they don't have to play fast or one-handed to prove it. El Estabario, I respect the crap out of the guy, but he's an influencer, and a flash drummer. Everything he has done has been done before. He practiced a lot and incorporated all things that impress non-drummers into one package.
Ahhhh, the flash in the pan & hyped up flavor of the year.
Played this a few days ago at Guitar Center and it felt almost exactly like playing an acoustic kit. The lifelike samples and wide range of dynamics blew my mind.
I have one at my local guitar center, if no one’s using it it’s always the first thing I go to😂
How long did it take til you got kicked out?
@@kishascape Kicked myself off after 5-10 mins lol, store was dead and at the time they had headphones for it instead of a monitor setup.
I played one yesterday at a local store and came across this video coincidentally, lol. It is so freaking amazing, wish I had more time with it.
Me: Looking around the house at what I can sell. 🤣
Sameee. 😫😫
Same here.
Me: Looking around the apartment at what piece of furniture I need to get rid of to make room
@joeg4797 I'm thinking selling my soul should cover at least half...
@@rixellfix4228 🤣🤣🤣
16:52 a bunch of stool samples :D
" I insist on being here when they're born" just earned another sub. Superb content and your humor is perfect.
hahah thank you John!!! cheers buddy
glad I wasn't the only one that caught that jurassic park reference. haha
The initial fart on the bass drum sent me into the next room😂😂😂😂
Me too.I landed so hard on the floor with that and that's not easy to make me do either because my sense of humor is nada.
It didn't smell that bad.
Roland's in trouble.
You bet they are I returned the vad307 to sweetwater once 2 days after this bad boy came out. It's realy nice just wish they would make an update so I can use the module as an audio interface with ableton
Wait for the Roland revenge! They will create a Monster
I ordered one yesterday, getting it next week. Can't fucking wait!
damn son, you dropped 3500 for this?
@@Styledd I did!
@@Styledd Worth it
I was in the market for Roland vad307 right when they announced this kit. Looked at the reviews for like half a day. Ordered the strata prime the next. I’ve already used it live twice at at my church. Trust me, you’re gonna love it!
@@jasonwright4144 Thanks, I'm sure I will! I had ordered the Alesis Strike Pro Special Edition prior to this one, but they had trouble getting it in stock so they couldn't ship it until May 22nd at the earliest. So I canceled my order, and ordered this one instead, since I didn't want to wait for almost two months more. Really excited to get my hands on it. I just hope I can get my hands on more cymbal pads!
an extra 22 points for the ..and justice for all instrumental over the time lapse!
legend... for some reason i couldn't figure out where the fuck the intro was from, ( long day, im a truck driver). don't you just hate it when you hear a song you know but can't figure out the title?
@@Jeaust8Vno I love it
Every now and then, I forget how amazing of a drummer he is! This man is an inspiration to many, including myself 🖤🤘
man, that is very nice of you to say! thank you!!!
It's not just his drumming. The whole human being is an inspiration. Very likable guy.
Awesome!
I'm an old guitar player but enjoyed this video 22% more than guitar videos. Looks like your having lots of fun with this set. Great video!
hahaha thank you!
@@66Samus you came out of thin air 😂
Those samples were absolutely top tier. This kit is a banger.
Literally perfect timing as I decided to impulse by an electric kit this week!
This one?
I just got one of these the other day, and it's really great. Feels like a real kit, and I'm playing daily again now for the first time in over a decade!
Just got one of these. It's awesome. Things I wish I knew:
- hit hat stand not included
- bass drum pedal not included
- currently no way to directly connect your phone via bluetooth to play along to backing tracks (lots of ways around this)
Super cool kit though, I love all the different playable zones. Also, sidestick works fine, just cant hit the snare head with your fingers or else youll hear the snare sound. Pretty easy to account for though, in my opinion
one of the best ekits I have ever heard ! Honestly looks worth the price tag 👀
I was in the market for a roland vad307 right when they announced this. Went with the Alesis, and it does NOT disappoint!
Half the pleasure of watching this video, is your enthusiasm for it and side laughs. I want one now!
I love how playing the different kits made you play diff stuff. It's kinda like a really good multi effect for guitar, every preset must inspire some response.
I was in the market for a Roland vad307 right when they announced this kit. Went with the strata prime the next day. I’ve used it live twice at my church already and this thing had been worth every penny! I think my favorite part of the kit is the way they recorded the drums/ the responsiveness. They didn’t take a drum hit and turn up the volume when you hit harder. They actually recorded the drum being hit harder! So you really get that nice crack out of the snare and toms! Also as a nice treat, they actually have cymbal stacks! I’ve been waiting for a vst to do this for a while, and now have it in a kit I use live!
This is the best demo I have seen for this kit so far. Ease of use is great. Thanks always for the great content.
my local guitar center got one of these and i love how you can chose the cymbals like zildjian sabian paiste or meinl i cant even describe how much i love it
Alesis's previous kits were already pretty solid, and Roland's were just easy, but Alesis really upped their game with this kit. I really like that the different pad sizes also resonate differently. I'm guessing that was an intended feature that they engineered in, and not just a happy coincidence.
Got mine yesterday. Putting it together over the weekend 🤘🤘🤘
the mangini kit at the end was worth the whole 3500. it sounds perfect 👍
best review of this product so far....great playing....kit looks and sounds great. Im a long time Roland V20 Expanded Kit owner. I'm falling in love with this kit...
12:26 - 12:47 That was honestly incredible
The Mangini samples sound absolutely outrageous 😍
Does anyone know how to get these onto the sound module?
Amazing how far tech has come, AWESOME kit! Have fun!
The dynamics on this thing are insane sounding. I have the Crimson 2 se and that module requires a lot of trigger tweaking before it sounds anything close to this.
After looking at a few reviews... it looks like Alesis did something really really good. And with you playing, I notice even more the different hit sounds... too bad I already spent money on a different kit. LOL Thanks for this review buddy!
Wow! Electronic kits have come a long way! The cymbals amazed me the most. Years and years of development have paid off. Thrilled the module has the classic Hex Drum sounds installed. And being able to mix and match and program zones--like the cowbell/snare is wicked cool!
the Mangini kit soundeed NOOOICEE
7:19 Love seeing even a hardened smart-ass smiling with child like joy at the magic of multi zone triggering! 😂❤
That was genuinely the best marketing a company could ask for, holy hell did you play those drums😂
Absolutely awesome demo!!! Thank you for actually giving us a great idea of what it sounds like! And for making it fun!!!!! Thank you!
As a (work in progress) drummer, I have to say that this video just made my day!
Samus, as always, you just kick thy buttocks on the drums and are a blast to watch!
Thank you, Sir!
🤟😃👍
man has major personality and a killer sound
Sounds amazing🤩
Your drummin skills seems to be improvin each week 💯🙂 Twen!
love this, I especially thank you for demonstrating the real sounds of the pads our family would hear! don't usually find that
I've been a proud Alesis Strike Pro first edition owner for years. I have not have many of the problems others have had and would never think of trading it in...then along comes Strata Prime! I see an upgrade in my future. :) Absolutely amazing playing! Thanks for the review!!!
Excellent playing and demonstration
Liked how you mounted 3 Tom's across.
That kits insane , but bro your playing and knowledge !
HOLY $hit !
Mike, thank you so much dude
@@66Samus The double bass pedal isn’t included in the set, or am I wrong? Which one did u use for this video?
@@5ShotProductions yeah it doesn't come with a kick pedal.
here is the double I used: ruclips.net/video/XZyOzoNXRf0/видео.html
This review confirms it. I need this kit. I've never even wanted an electric kit. But this is just so impressive with so many benefits...i think I'm sold. Damn. Incredible how far these have come
I'm a Roland guy (have an expanded VAD 306 w a TD-27 module, digital snare, ride and hats) but have to say this Alesis kit is a groundbreaker in both looks, a color touch screen module w an embedded VST (!) a full size kick and 360 degree playability all around. Love the different tom diameters as well - C'mon Roland!
This is why I don't shill for any particular brand, anymore
I replaced my td25 with this kit. It was around $3000 when I got it. This kit blows it away on every level.
Wooooh... there are so many Roland fan boys. They say... buhhh. It's not durable. It doesn't feel good. Not fast enough...
Some years ago I went for a VST and just a trigger2MIDI interface and baaahm. Still using cheap Alesis pads and now Lemon cymbals. Awesome.
I don't understand 360° triggering when using a cable connection....
I am happy with cheap pads and fantastic sound.
Same here I use to have td30kv roland then got the se pro alisis then now I have the vad 504 roland and I'm thinking on trade it for this one.
Awesome video man! This kit looks really cool and the module is incredible! You rock man🤘🤘🤘
No… you rock kid! 😂😂😂 Hi Tobi my Awesome Metal Drummer Kid! 💟
Hey Charlene! Glad to see you here! Thanks for your support my friend🤘🤘🤘@@charlenemack7040
The kit sounds great and your playing was very smooth.
(14:41) when you invite a metal drummer to the trap gig
I saw that Ten Thousand Fists intro section at 8:05. I've listened to that song too many times to not know it.
Well played, sir. 😏
That new ekit sounds killer! I like how you showed emphasis on the rims. You get an extra 22 points for a great rim job!
by far the best review I've seen... Thank you!
Alesis is such an underrated company.
Non.
Ils méritaient leur réputation pourrie jusqu’à il n’y a pas si longtemps encore.
Ils ont commencé à faire du bon matos hardware et software uniquement à partir de la Strike.
Puis de leur Multipad du même nom.
Avant ça c’était de la bonne daube.
Ils commencent à faire mal c’est un fait mais c’est récent.
11:39 that's one of the meanest drum parts ever
Sick demo and chops!
Plus the ass-blastbeat at the end had me in stitches 😂
Your chop are insane ..love it
playing with the Alesis Scrota Prime, oh yurrrrrr
Ten Thousand Fists mentioned!!! Love to see some Mike Wengren recognition.
I was hopeful that I was the only one who noticed 10,000 fists lol
Great video. Love the approach of just having fun experimenting with it.
These companies need to make a module with eight extra inputs.
Yep I agree the other way is to hook up 2 of them using a 3.5mm cable (phones into mix in) and you have more pad options!
@@markdoolan3424 I have done that a couple times.
22 extra inputs
Go for a Audiofront eDRUMin10 trigger2MIDI interface.
Did you check these out? Amazing piece of gear!
There nice pieces of gear that can deal with this...
5:05 yoda makes an appearance!
I like those Electric drum kits that have the Acoustic looking Hi-Hats, and this is one of them!
Thanks for the great video! Awesome test run on that kit!
I tore my pants laughing on the fart sample part😂😂.
The Jurassic Park reference got me smiling.
Between you and El Estepario showcasing this new kit from Alesis I now want one really really bad!!
This was the funniest, most entertaining, and most informative video I’ve seen in a while. Well done, sir!! 👍👍
08:08 ten thousand fists?🤘😂
The blast beat with the fart sent me lmao
😂👍🏻😁😁😁🥁
I love that deep dark birch kit sound!
I got mine in Monday. I replaced my Roland td 25. I like it a lot. The trigger settings are the best I’ve seen on a module. It’s definitely worth the money.
I play in a 9 piece band where bass and guitars all run direct. Only real sound on stage is drums and horns. Often wonder if high end eDrums could be used effectively. If so, would this kit cut it on stage. At less than half the price of the flagship Roland, this kit is attainable.
You really fit to be the next Slipknot Drummer
I’ve been playing the drums a looooooong time. This guy is SPECIAL. Superb skills.
I'm not a drummer (bass player), but I love these vids because your attitude is so infectious! I even learn things sometimes!
dude, thank you!!
Good to see a youtube drummer with decent socks and clean legs lol
Tom Sawyer by rushing to the bathroom
This comment deserves more likes
Sick drumming!!🔥🔥🔥
You're blast beat are so clean!! insane❤❤
He turned Tom Saywer in to Tom Shitter
Look at that bahee on the thumbnail
The smiles show how much you are enjoying this.
I've just bought the Nitro Max kit for my young lad who's loving drums. One day maybe this one will be on his list. Looks and sounds great!! Waaaay to good for us at the mo but maybe it's in our future! Great vid!
No drum kit can be compared to these sexy Bahee legs
I started playing drum last year and I’ve been watching Samus since your amazing man I wish I could afford a drum set like that or any drum set
I have an old Alesis. That kit looks awesome for electronic.
Okay, is this going to go back or get sold? You don't wanna keep it, you want to see it go to a guitar player that needs some drum chops in his back pocket, and you want him to have it at a stupid great price too! Oh, and these are definitely not the droids you are looking for. . .
best review in years ,great kit,the bar has been lifted..
Damn that thing sounds good. The module and sample quality is quite a statement.
First electronic drum kit that sounds acceptable!!! Good Job Alesis!
You sir are a damn beast! Killing it on the kit!
Great review, Samus. Thanks! I am definitely going to have to get back into drumming and I will certainly be going with an e-kit.
My friend, you are nothing but the truth! No matter what you play, you make it sound damn good. Keep rocking bud!
Hombre eres lo maximo😊 ! Thanks for the video
Insane ❤, so is the kit! Fan bloody tastic
Been watching you for ages now and I finally SUBSCRIBED... sorry I'm a bit slow. You could make a toy set sound amazing, but it's good to see you really putting this set to the test for us new guys wanting to dip our toes into our first set of drums and electronic really is the way to go! THanks!
my dude, thank you so much!!!!
Ahh... I've been waiting for you to cover this kit! Tonality is just amazing with such accurate distinction of notes even when blasting across the kit. Great review, as always, Samus! I'm ordering mine next month and I want to go with a second bass drum for the pure aesthetics. I'm currently planning the rack, as I'm going to go with a Gibraltar rack to get it slung nice and low with a very unique setup.
