All user reviews of 2/5 for the Alesis SR-18

- See manual (sissi! I have read it)
- No effect ... little or
- No external editing

UTILIZATION

The screen is very clear and simple editing is relavtivement. We regret sometimes combinations of three hits for work actually quite fluently used ... For example, dust removing the backing track (after you copy a factory preset in a user memory), press the Delete button, keep pressing, pressing Bass, remained supported and press OK


SOUNDS

The sounds are very expressive ... but not from the keys that are about 2 sensitivity levels: soft when tapped gently, very soft when you hit and sometimes not so soft when you give a kick!

I use a Korg PadKontrol to trigger the sounds by hand. Otherwise it must be nice for a electronic drum kit.

In the end, the sounds are very Rock / Blues / Metal ... not really a genre where you need a drum machine: o.


OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years. Finally, I use it in two situations:
- Cover as a module using the presets to get ideas for riffs on the guitar and do exercises
- As his palette from Sonar (see "what I like best").

Yes.

What I love most: the way that affects ten drum kits to ten octaves accessible via MIDI. We then have a module with 120 sounds available simultaneously. It remains to modify the presets to avoid having the same sound cymbal kits on the ten ...

What I like least: ... the list is long!
- Can not tranpose the backing track or just the 'transfer'.
- The beast, while "top marmoset modern" does not support sysex for editing or external backup (confirmed by the support Alesis).

If it all over again, I do not refer this choice. I will take the previous version (SR-16) that supported the SysEx.
