Poised and ready for any style of music, the Alesis Strata Prime electronic drum kit features generously sized, triple-zone mesh pads for the 20" kick, 14" snare, 8" and 10" rack toms, and 12" and 14" floor toms. Alesis Rotatable Cymbal technology provides 360-degree sound, dynamics and articulation for the Strata Prime’s 14" hi-hats, two 16" crashes and 18" ride.

You can really get down to it with the intuitive Alesis Prime Drum Module with 10.1" touchscreen. Choose from 75 kits (from maple wood to ’80s electronics and beyond), four libraries and more than 1,000 multi-layered sounds—all derived from the renowned BFD Drums sound engine.

“There is a wonderful Stacks feature in the Prime Drum Module where you can layer up to three different sounds on each drum,” says L.A.-based session drummer, music director and producer Nathan Ricks, whose credits include Hunter Hayes, Lionel Ritchie and the Disney Channel. “For example, if the kick drum isn’t cutting it on a session, I can choose an 808 to create a heavier low end. You can add as much personality to the kit as you wish.”
