Alesis Turbo Mesh Kit – Electric Drum Set With 100+ Sounds, Quiet Mesh Drum Pads, Drum Sticks, Connection Cables, Drum Lessons

Follow a YouTube tutorial to build. Good sound, easy to move and store.

Still going strong 3+ years later. A great kit for a condo/apartment situation especially for the price.

Great product, but I will be returning it because the levels of the individual pads are pre-set and not adjustable.Kick drum sounds like thunder but the high-hat is barely audible. I mean BARELY audible. Cymbals, too. Super quiet unless you hit 'em harder than Bonzo during Moby Dick, and the whole point of the purchase was to be able to play quietly but have the levels as loud as I wanted.Great quality product all around but be warned: if you're looking to create your own mix among the individual pads, you can't.Unusable for me. Bummer.

Now I’m no drummer, by any means. This kit, though, fills a spot for me that extends all the way back to my childhood. Back then, in the 80s, the only options seemed to be a crummy electric kit with fake drum sounds or a traditional kit. Neither of which my parents would have ever bought for the ensuing noise fest and therapy that surely would have followed. Fast forward many years and the Sears catalog has progressed to the Amazon experience.I did a little research on this kit, not extensive, but enough to feel good about my purchase. For the money this kit felt like a great start for this beginning drummer.The AssemblyPutting this thing together does take a little bit of time and the instructions are not crystal clear. If you pay close attention to the photos and endure a bit of trial and error, you’ll get it together. It took me about an hour. Most of the time was spent figuring out which part of the frame goes where and ensuring that the ends of each piece slot in correctly. Be sure to loosen brackets as you go so that each piece will slide in easily. Tighten things up and you’re on your way.The TrialAgain, I’m no drummer, which was clearly evident in my initial attempts to play along with Dave Grohl tracks. Note: Probably not the guy to try and keep up with right out of the gate. That all being said, the kit sounds great, I think. There are about 10 different combinations of kits creating plenty of sounds for me to play around with. The base sounds real, snare, crash and high hat. Pretty cool. Everything is adjustable, like a real kit, to fit where you want things. Just takes some messing around for it to feel right. Kind of like finding that sweet spot in a new car seat. The cymbals were a bit quiet relative to everything else and plugging in your iPhone to play along via the auxiliary jack is cool, but the sound quality isn’t great from the iPhone. I plan to solve that by just playing through a stereo. Then adjusting the drum volume to the optimum level to both play along while still hearing the song. I have not yet toyed with all the settings, but will over the next few days weeks, actually reading the manual- novel idea.OverallOverall, I’m really happy with this kit so far, albeit just a few days. It’s sturdy feeling, enough so that I feel I can beat up on it a bit. It can be folded up a bit to be tucked against the wall. It’s fun and relatively intuitive. Most of all, I’ve got my first kit many long years after pining over lesser options from a tattered Sears catalog back in the 80s.

I bought this for my teen son for Christmas and he was excited putting it together but found it did not work. Upon inspection one of the pins was missing on the plug that goes into the back so we had to get another plug. Customer service was great and we were send another one and THEN it worked as it should but it was long after the glow of Christmas was past. My son normally uses a non digital set but with how loud it was (even in the garage) we thought digital would be better.However my son said that with headphones there was a latency between the tap of the stick to when the sound occurred and it was throwing off his rhythm. Needless to say he went back to noise and we sold this set a couple of months later.Assembly was not hard as long as you have an understanding where all the pieces should be.It was a great price for a digital set but I think that perhaps more expensive set would have been better in our case.It is smaller than a non digital set and uses less room compared to the former plus it can be used indoors if you can handle all the tapping instead of crashing sounds.

Drums work like a champ for Clone Hero. Many guides online to make setup a breeze. Durable build, mesh face is pretty strong. Only complaint I have is the instructions are a bit confusing because there are no words only pictures and its in black and white. The drum itself is black. Some of the pictures are confusing because they overlap with the drum in the image and I had to pull a guide up on how to set it up correctly. Other than that, 10/10 for clone hero.

Muy buena relacion precio_calidad.
