I got mine a few weeks back. LOVE it...
Stephen Fink my father bought me one how do I use it with my logic so I can record ??
You will need an audio interface. Just plug your main output into that and record away.
what i like about it is, i put all sounds on mute on each sound then i hook up usb midi and load up addictive drums 2 adjust the settings on the addictive settings and i went from 800$ drum kit to a 3K drum set. Yes i had to pay for addictive drums but it has real drum sound and Zildjian cymbals i have the A custom and the A series cymbal sounds.
Supercool Brotherl! 👍😎
just curious, how much waa Addictive Drums 2?
APPRECIATE B💕TH YOU GUYS & TIM IS COOL! 😄👍😎💯
Just bought this Alesis Drums Command Mesh SE Kit - Electric Drum Set with Quiet Dual Zone Mesh Pads as my Very 1st Ever electronic drum kit & it arrives January 3rd 2024! Thanks So Much For The VERY HELPFUL POSITIVE VIBES VIDEO Br❤thers! YOU ROCK & HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU B💞TH!! 🥁🥁🥂🍻👍😎🥳💕✨✨✨
How are you enjoying it? I just got my SE kit last night and will be putting it together today. Hope it was a decent purchase.
I love it brother! I did order another cymbal & tom & it feels a plays fantastic! 👍😎💞💯🥁🥁🥁Hoping to do some little videos soon by the end of the month! So have you got yours set up yet? 🤔
@@stevielovelight1 Yeah, set it up last night and picked up a 35 watt donnar amp and it was pretty cool. At some point I'm going to connect to my computer and download Ez Drummer and from what I've heard it takes the kit to another level. Have fun and keep drumming my friend!
So cool to hear brother and can you please let me know how that computer upload works for your kit? Have fun brother man I'm still actually dialing mine in and only wish we could post some pictures. 🤣😎🥳🥁🥁🥁🎵🎵🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶
@@stevielovelight1 will do
This was really enjoyable
Might need to get this
I have a Top of the line DW Kit With Zildjian Cymbals recorded at a pro studio waiting to be uploaded in this baby!
What is the difference between this and the crimson 2 I'm trying to decided which to buy
Gotta hate the fact that NONE OF YOU major e-drum reviewer/salesrats would EVER play a mesh kit without the module to demonstrate noise levels! Why, oh WHY?!?!? FFS!!!
Eric Cartman very good point, man!
Your still hitting an object with a stick! Obviously it's going to make noise!
It's as loud as a kitty eating your Cheezy Poofs!
Where can i find the expansion pack for alesis command mesh
Mind blown !
I would buy Superior Drummer, Steve Slate Drums, etc. and not use the module sounds unless I edited the hell out of the sounds. Or I would use both, depending on the musical situation.
That's all I'm getting it for I have superior drummer 3 and modo drums
Best to just buy the surge with cheaper module then use the superior drummer or ez drummer and save money.
Can you recommend a good double pedal for the kick?
Can you use bass drum beater patch / stickers on the mesh heads ?
its amazing man it is just u know amazin man
Is it usable for people over 6 ft? I've seen the cheaper alesis kits be a bit low
Thanks for your question, no 6ft people will make the kit appear to be low but it technically isn't low. Also, you can easily go to the hardware store and have some wooden blocks cut for you and placed under the legs to elevate the kit. Or, you can simply take up guitar
They will only take my sticks from my cold dead hands
Great
Is it pressure sensitive? I mean will the sounds vary according to my intensity of strike to the pads or cymbals?
Yes.
Kit looks and sounds great. Can someone tell me if the ride has a bell sound?
You would need to put that sound as the sample it plays, but the cymbal does not have multiple zones, single zone only. The module can support a dual zone cymbal, but only the edge and bow. At least that is based on my research of the unit, I’m looking into this one myself
I have this kit and the ride isn't dual zone. It kind of sucks a little bit. My biggest complaint with the kit is the hi hat pedal. It is trash in my opinion. I have owned the kit for just over a month and I am already looking at upgrading to something better. The drums themselves are really good and the kick isn't bad. The cymbals and hi hat pedal or junk.
Is the hardware the same as the surge? I plan on running through native instruments anyway so module doesn't really matter much
Roland td-1dmk or alesis command mesh kit or alesis Crimson 2 ?
Please HELP !!!!!
Out of those three.... We'd say Roland! Come try them in store!
Can it be expanded to add an extra tom and crash or a threeway cymbal?
You can add another Tom or symbol but if you didn't already know the rims of the toms you can program to any sound that you choose whether it's another Tom sound or a splash crash or ride symbol.
@@7eight191 wow, ok,
Soundz good, thanls
From what I can tell, the only difference between the surge and the command is the drum brain
that's true, which is why the surge is better
The command sounds better in most of the demos to me. The Module is the same module that is in the Crimson II.
@@Meccarox why is the surge better? Far as I can tell, the command module is better.
@TheTrueHappy
The command module is better but it’s not worth the price difference. I think the surge is the best bang for your buck.
@@TheGamingDandy The Command Module is superror!
Bought the command today? Why are my symbols not choking?
Go into the menu and change the sensitivity
Quite noisy. I wasnt expecting this. My neighbors downstairs hate it.
and a $3200 yamaha kit will still require a $150 dampening carpet to reduce the kick and downstrokes. Don't be mean to your neighbors downstairs unless they deserve it.
I am your neighbor downstairs. After practicinfg for 9 months, you sound great. When you start playing, we just start dancing. Can you please turn it up a bit?
could be worse, could get a real drum kit and be louder ;)
You just sold me on the Yamaha DTX522k
nice video and indeed the snare is Nah.... the only kit where it sounds okay is the Pearl Mimic pro, but the module is very expensive
You can use this kit WITH the Mimic or to a VST.
522k or Alexis command mesh?
Yamaha is premium brand meaning its more expensive.
Jeezy 47 Yamaha 522K is the same price and is superior. Just use your ears.
I love you Jesus!
I love Jesus too! and I'm not even a Christian!

Primarily a guitar player and never played drums but would like to learn. Should I get this kit to start out?
Better than a good kit to start out. You dont have to go this high, but you wont regret. My first electronic kit was just a side kit along my acoustics and it was a yamaha dtx kit. Fantastic for what I needed, but this is a good step up.
Which one is better surge mesh or command mesh? Which will you suggest to buy
Hi Joyel Paul, they are very similar but the Alesis Command has a superior module and sound.
command mesh
For those who bought it, how does it feel against an acoustic set? I want to purchase one but am afraid it will feel more like a toy as opposed to a drum kit. Obviously there are key differences, but does it feel fairly authentic?
I bought this exact kit. My experience is it does not play like an acoustic kit but you will get used to it. Everything is so much closer together it takes a little time to adjust but once you get comfortable you're going to really like it. I play in a cover band and what I like about it is i can program the sound of the kit with the song I'm playing. If I'm playing a rock song then into a blues song then into a country song I like the option of programming each song with a click of the button. Also on the rims of the toms you can program a splash symbol or a another crash or ride symbol or whatever sound you choose. This kid is very versatile. I'm really enjoying it the more I play it.
@@7eight191 is it still working good?
@@poisonedfilms1881 The problem I'm having right now is the trigger in the snare is misfiring I need to replace it but otherwise everything's working great.
@@7eight191 thanks for the feedback man
Merle Dixon from Alesis.
The snare is always the problem with electric kits. THey got the toms and bass drum sound down pretty well, but the snare is always very fake sounding. Even in the high end Roland kits.
With the option to add your own wav files, I’ve loaded snare packs I’ve purchased from That Sound and it feels a lot less robotic. It’s certainly not the same as a well tuned responsive snare, but it’s pretty cool to be able to go from samples of chunky, loose snares to snappy high snares without getting up or keeping 2.
I have an old TD 10 Roland v drum module. In the settings menus I can take the virtual muffling tape off the snare, detune the lugs and vary the shell depth and type. ( brass,wood ) I can get the snare to sound pretty close to real. I love acoustic drums and I own 5 snare drums. The point is you really have to go into the module and tweak the settings.
Roland sounds WAY better than alesis
That's because Roland focuses on latency, that's why they didn't add anything like importing real drum samples (like Yamaha) until the TD-17 series arrived, they didn't have the technology to make those features that the TD-17 has without sacrificing the latency of the drum module. Actually the best drum modules to using VST because of its low latency compared to Alesis or Yamaha kits, or even ATV (that has one of the best drum module sounds in my opinion, not as good as the Mimic Pro or even The Alesis Strike Pro module and their signature e-cymbals and e-kits are awesome).
I think you need to customize your sounds in Roland modules in order to get a more 'real' sound.
Hans Aaraas You can always midi out to another module or to Superior drummer, or even load your own samples.
Anyone complaining of the drum tones is completely missing the point.
My kick bass sounds so quiet
Are the ride and crash dual zone?
Ace Cummings they are not dual zone but they are choke able
I don't get why El drum makers don't focus on making a module fully dedicated to loading your own sounds with multiple layers and that's it. For gigging. No need for any songs, or a high number of internal samples or a trainer, recording or anything like that. This would be a gigging tool, using sounds prepared during mixing of the song. Not a practise tool. All those practice features are just cluttering the interface...
Isn’t that why people have a sampling pad for
@@shreyab3995 A sample pad is fine, but I was talking about El drum modules specifically.
The headless chick in the corner has more personality then Dave Grohl....
Shut up and PLAY the damn set!!!
He's there to try and sell it. Which is what he's doing. It's like when you go buy a car. The test drive isn't the only thing you do. The sales man walks around and points out all the selling points too. Same w/ instruments.
Very fake sounding snare drum. Yamaha DTX kit in the same price range sounds WAY better.
Download the voice list from the Alesis site. This kit has 73 different snare sounds among its 630 voices, and you can pitch shift any voice up or down 8 semitones if you like.
