Alesis SR16/SR18 Drum Machines
Percussion At Hands Reach
As one of the most popular drum machines ever made, the SR-16 has been used by everyone from songwriters to live performers to remix engineers as their drum machine of choice. The next-generation SR18 is loaded with cutting-edge drumsets, electronic drums, one-shot hits, and modern percussion sounds for any cutting-edge musician’s performances and compositions. From hip-hop to country and everything in between, the SR16 and SR18 nail it on the first take. Both feature an effects engine with Alesis reverb, EQ, and compression so you can output recording or performance-ready sounds. As well as the their proprietary Dynamic Articulation™ feature, which modifies sample sounds so they change as you play them.
Note: At check-out you can select either the SR16 or the SR18 (+$99).
Ease of Control
The SR-16 and SR-18 features 50 preset patterns that were actually played in by top studio drummers, not just programmed and quantized. SR18 can be powered by AC or batteries, so whenever or wherever you need to lay down a groove, you’re ready to roll. It’s time for you to step up to the next Alesis drum machine.
