Just like its name suggests, the Alesis Debut Kit is ideal if you're just starting out on your drumming journey at a young age! It makes the instrument affordable and accessible, including everything you need to start playing right out of the box. As well as the kit itself, you'll get a drum throne, headphones, sticks, cables and Melodics learning software.
The Drums
The kit consists of four 6-inch adjustable mesh head pads for the snare and toms. The mesh design offers good feel and response, with a level of noise that's far quieter than the rubber pads found on many other electronic kits.
These are complimented by 3 10-inch cymbal pads (for the hi-hat, crash and ride). This size ensures that you'll always strike the pads exactly where you need to.
Finally, a pair of foot pedals for the kick pedal and hi-hat feature a small footprint, and can even be rolled up and stored easily when not in use. The lack of a physical kick drum saves even more space too!
Brimming with Sounds
From the DM-Lite drum module, you'll be able to choose from a library of contrasting drums - encompassing 10 classic and more contemporary kits. Within these kits, there are 120 separate drum sounds to explore and utilise.
Each has been designed by Alesis especially for the Debut, augmented by innovative Dynamic Articulation tech. This delivers an authentic sound, improving your playing experience no end. This quality sound can be appreciated either via headphones, or a drum amplifier/sound system, which can be plugged into the stereo 1/4-inch outputs.
Learn & Develop
Improve your technique and timing using the 60 free included lessons from Melodics. This PC/tablet-based app makes playing not only fun, but worthwhile too. These lessons offer feedback as well, ensuring that you know exactly which areas you need to improve on.
A built-in drum coach function contains 30 tracks to play along to, as well as rhythm-based exercises which will help to develop your chops even further. Or, if you'd prefer to play along to your favourite tunes, simply plug in your laptop, tablet or phone using the 1/8-inch aux input.
