  • Supreme Quality build and sound
Style: Strata Core
The media could not be loaded. I have only just assembled yesterday and not played with it that much, but I’ve owned several eKits over the years, and hands down, this is the best I’ve ever seen or played. The build quality of the frame and all the drum parts is top notch. Minor gripe, the connectors are plastic, but seem sturdy, having aluminum mounting couplers would have been above and beyond. The drum heads and all cymbals feel and respond like acoustic. There is so much expression you can get out of every cymbal, I won’t need any upgrades for a long time to come. The variety of factory installed drum kits is superb. Only listened in headphones so far, but the sound fidelity and expressive responses is top notch. Still fits on the same 4x4’ drum rug my “cheap” Alesis fits on but is light years ahead. I saw many off brands here on Amazon with similar features but wasn’t willing to risk them. I’m glad I went with a trusted brand. Looking forward to years of fun with this. ... show more

  • Got a hummer
Style: Strata Core
I’m going to give this three stars for now because I did have the opportunity to set it up and play and it was great. Unfortunately, as I had read about with numerous other reviews, it was one of the defective modules so now my excitement of having a new kit is replaced with the disappointment of waiting. I think if I would’ve bought via Sweetwater, they would’ve just sent me a new kit and I could have kept playing the old one while waiting, but going direct through Alesis they made me ship them my defective module and now I have to just wait. Can’t play the drums and there’s no way to track the status of it or anything. So that part is pretty disappointing given the price tag of this kit. I will update my review whenever Alesis decides that they are ready to send me a working module. It’s been two weeks so far. ... show more

  • First time electric kit
Style: Strata Core
Packaging was a bit beat up on arrival, but I know this thing is huge and awkward to carry. Glad everything was operational and nothing was missing. Kit looks great and sounds great with many options and expandability. Triggering the hats is a bit unnatural if you open and close them quickly as I often do. The sound sample at the cymbal gets cut off instead of turning into a "chk" sound when I close with the foot pedal. Maybe i didn't calibrate them well. Factory kits are all playable "out of the box", but the volume levels need adjustment for the individual pieces. I will load a kit and usually have to raise the volume/response from the hats and kick, balance the toms, etc. I'm living in an apartment and trying to make everything quiet as I can for the neighbors sake. Hopefully no noise complaints. ... show more

  • LOUD HUMMING FROM MODULE!!
Style: Strata Core
There is a HUM sound coming from the audio output jacks on the module as well as through both the 1/4" and 1/8" headphone jacks. The HUM gets very loud when turning up your PA, AMP, Powered speakers Etc. However, the volume on the Core module even at 0 does not stop or lower the HUM. It happens on all kits and is constant. Here is what i've tried: Different outlet for power. Same outlet for powering Module and speakers etc. Updated firmware to latest. Rebooted multiple times. Factory reset multiple times. Tried diferent cables, balanced, unbalanced. Made sure nothing else was plugged in. Turned off WiFi, Turned off Bluetooth. Nothing works! I submitted a ticket to Alesis to to see what they’re going to do. It’s very annoying considering this is a brand new set and I haven’t even been able to play it yet. ... show more

  • Glad I upgraded to the Strata Core
Style: Strata Core
I bought the Strata Core to replace an older Alesis kit (rubber pads, had it for 11 years), and so far it's been a revelation. It's been only a couple of weeks, and I haven't played around with everything the kit has to offer, but I love the tunable mesh heads--the dynamics are really nice, and they feel much more like real drum heads than the old rubber pads did. The cymbals are also a huge upgrade--both in feel and sound--and the hi-hat is really responsive, with more varied playing surfaces. I can get a true "chick-tick" out of it. With some kit modules I find the ride cymbal a little washy, but apparently you can mix and match with other kits to dial in the sound and tone you want. I need to play around more with this. Initial setup requires some patience and involves some trial and error, but I appreciate the flexibility of the rack and the way the individual drums can be adjusted for height and positioning. The module has 75 kits to choose from, and you can plug in a phone or other device to help you play along with songs. You can also output sound to headphones or an amp. Overall I'm really happy with the kit. It's reinvigorated my playing and my practice routines. It's not cheap, but then again it's a lot less expensive than the Strata Prime, and I feel like a beginner to intermediate drummer (like me) will get really good value out of the Strata Core without feeling like they're missing out on anything. Note that it doesn't come with a kick pedal, a hi-hat stand, or a throne, so you'll have to buy those separately if you don't already have them. ... show more

  • Fantastic kit
Style: Strata Core
Fantastic kit. Easy to assemble. Only issue which really isn't an issue is calibration of the hi-hat required a bit more than running the routine. Adjusting the quick setting knob fine tunes it.
