CloseA Super-affordable Percussion Controller!
Many percussion controllers are remarkably expensive and still don't manage to feel much like you're hitting a real drum. Other percussion controllers aren't expensive, and they don't feel expensive. But Alesis's Control Pad is both cost effective and has a great feel and response. Plug the Control Pad into virtually any mac or PC via USB and you've got hands-on control over your drum samples. Imagine hitting this 8-pad controller with a pair of real drum sticks — just like you would on a kit. Very cool! The Control Pad is perfect for expanding existing acoustic kits for the live stage or as a way to push new sonic directions in the studio. If sampled percussion is part of your repertoire, the Control Pad is a great way to control your samples anywhere!Alesis Control Pad Features at a Glance:
