Great Drum Sounds! Give the drummer some! Or give yourself some drummers. A whole box o' drummers. Sweetwater has got beats so strong you can't shake 'em loose, and you'll find some of the tastiest in the Alesis DM5. This drum sound processor packs more pounding than a herd of stampeding wildebeests! You get 540 knee-buckling, skin-shuddering drum sounds that can be assigned to any of the 21 programmable drumsets. A Random Sample feature means you don't get the same sound twice and you can keep the beats fresh. And don't worry about the sound. These samples are so close to the real deal, you won't believe it's not a drummer! • Audio Outputs: 4 (2 Stereo Pairs) • Trigger Input Jacks: 12 (each with 5 user adjustable trigger parameters) • DAC Bit Resolution: 18 Bit • Sounds: Over 550, including stereo samples with reverb, ambience, and Dynamic Articulation • Polyphony: 16 voice • Panning: 7 position, user programable • Velocity Response: 128 levels of loudness via MIDI or trigger inputs • Kits: 21 memory locations with defaults stored permanently in ROM • MIDI Jacks: In, Out/Thru • Headphone Jack: 1/4" TRS with variable gain • Footswitch Jack: 1/4" jack, assignable to hi-hat or program advance • Data Input: Data knob, front panel keypad, sound auditioning via front panel Preview pad • Dynamic Articulation: Modulates Tone and Pitch via Velocity Sweetwater Expert Advice     "The Alesis DM5 is the perfect drum module for drummers and/or MIDI composers who don't want to spend a lot of money in order to get quality drum sounds. The DM5's Expanded Dynamic Articulation and Random Sample features help create realistic drum sounds whether you're looking for a MIDI-controlled percussion module, a drum replacement tool for mixing, or a means for triggering sounds from electronic drum pads. I've had a DM5 in my studio for the past few years and it still gets plenty of use!" Mac McDonough   "Are you looking for that death-metal, speed-metal, vampire-metal, rip-the-wings-off-an-angel and pummel your way through the catacombs of Haiti drum sound? Look no further. Just about every serious metal drummer out there will tell you that he is using triggers to take his sound over the edge. I have seen the DM5 used live and in the studio and it has worked for years! Add on some Roland triggers and your double bass will finally achieve the demonic glory you have been looking for."
