The Alesis DM6 USB Electronic Drum Kit features realistic, natural-feeling playing surfaces, to reduce vibration feedback, Alesis selected natural rubber drum and cymbal surfaces for the DM6 USB Kit's pads. This five-piece kit gets you started on a dual-zone snare pad for dual-sound compatibility so for example you can assign a snare drum sound in the centre of the drum and a rim click, rimshot, or something totally different like a cowbell on the rim ..
    The DM6 USB Kit also comes with three tom pads, an upright kick drum pad, hi-hat, crash, and ride cymbal pads. Alesis have included their own bass drum pedal and the kick pad is compatible with any single or double bass drum pedal that would suit your own personal feel.
    Withe the Alesis DM6 USB the user can edit and save customised sound drum kits and in all there are 10 pre-sets and 5 customisable memory patches. In addition to the sounds in the DM6 module, there's a USB output that sends the notes you play out as MIDI signal, so you can use the DM6 as a trigger-to-MIDI interface with drum-module software such as BFD, Toontrack, or Reason for an alternative collection of sounds.
    The DM6 has headphone and amplifier outputs so you can play undisturbed using the phones or connect up to an amplified audio source and rock out, there's also the ability to connect an iPod or CD player and mix it in with the DM6's stereo input jack. The DM6 module has a metronome, an essential tool for keeping steady time whether you're practicing alone or with a band, additionally the Alesis DM6 USB also has a built-in sequencer with 40 pre-set music tracks for play along to.
    The DM6 USB Kit mounts onto a heavy-duty aluminum rack and the standard 1 1/2" tubing enables you to expand and grow the kit with Alesis's own and other brands' clamps and mounts. The kit also comes with a full set of mounting hardware and cables, as well as rugged kick drum and hi-hat pedals.

    I had the DDrum DD1, which is the identical kit with a different brain. It lasted two years of my playing daily until I sold it. It was really sturdy.

    Early on in this video there were a load of naff novelty sounds. Along with one patch that had a couple of really nice drum sounds ruined by daft sounds coming off the cymbals. Near the end of the 15 main patches some actual drum kit sounds that are at least usable started to come along.
    So glad I carried on watching. As I would totally discount this kit completely otherwise.

    I've just bought this. I'm a beginner. OK, so it's not the best in the world, but I've been playing it now for a while and it does what I wanted it to do. It's compact, it fits into the relatively small space I have, it sounds good. It allows me to practise and find my own rhythm, my own voice. I may move on to something sharper, more dynamic and with more options - but that comes at a price, and right now I don't know if I'll need or want that. This is a good, solid kit to start out with and learn to discover.

  • @FilGee100
    @FilGee100 11 років тому +4

    Yes, There is a Metal preset that changes the hi hat to a second kick pedal. or you could just use a double kick pedal on the pad like you would with a real kick drum.

      @W0Y4K i have been using this kit for years and it looks like its a very common problem with DM6, so basically whenever you hit the hihat hard enough in the right spot, the kit thinks that you are playing the snare too..

    I use it since like ~8-9 months, It's great for beginners, I learned a lot. But now it's pain that it doesn't have any "free" inputs for additional pads (DM10 has) and I usually sacrifice 3rd tom for ride etc.
    I've learned a lot and now I'm looking forward to buy either DM10 or expanded acoustic set. I'm also going to sell my DM6 because it's still in perfect condition. Nothing bad happened to pads or anything. Everything works fine, I even broke stick on these pads :)

  • @joelcoool
    @joelcoool 10 років тому +2

    What you don't notice is how little you can move each pad. Also, the cymbals make a really loud noise when hit. They also scratch/get white marks really easy.

    Just got the kit delivered 7/17/18. Some sensitivity near the cymbal mounts. If you hit them it triggers the snare randomly... Pretty solid considering I paid $279 for it. I was able to build a decent sounding kit out of the 108 selections. Pretty top heavy so make sure you have the legs positioned right. All in all I can't complain.

    I owned this kit for 1 1/2 years and it did exactly what I needed it to do, sadly I lost it in a shipping accident (I lived overseas and a TON of water got into the containers). The one thing I regret doing is not buying an amp, you need one of those. I would recommend to any beginners, you can get this kit used for $120-$220 USD. If you want an acoustic, pearl export series hands down.

    About the snare thing... I believe there is a firmware update that will fix this. I read it is tricky to do but will work. Ok this kit is not hi end but it is decent enough to learn on. I like it. Triggers my DAW drums which is cool but latency is an issue.

    Hey, nice review. Made me finally deciding to go for this one, as a similar-featured Yamaha costs twice as much.
    I have 2 questions:
    1) Can you hit the border of the snare to make it sound like when you hit only the metal border of the drum in an acoustic (with the stick flat across the drum?
    2) Is it true that these kits have static sound in the background, no matter if playing thru headphones or amplifier? Or does your doesn't present this issue at all?
    Thanks for the video, man.

      James Rossi I had something similar to this kit, the only difference really was the module. I detested the drum heads on it as it seemed to almost grab hold of the stick at times, not a lot of bounce. I had a problem with the triggers too, particularly the snare and cymbals. Eventually I didn't even plug it in to play and one of the cymbals finally snapped.
