The Alesis Nitro Max is a complete e-kit that’s perfect for rehearsing, recording, songwriting, practicing, learning, jamming, or simply digging the versatile and propulsive sounds of the popular BFD drum sample library. The mesh drum heads on the Nitro Max not only allow you to play super quiet, they also provide an authentic feel that’s just like sitting on an acoustic drum kit. You can go from practicing silently at home to bashing it out on an acoustic stage kit without worrying about your attack or technique being hampered. In addition, the Bluetooth connectivity of the Alesis Nitro Max can help you upgrade your skills by serving up streaming music tracks and audio from video lessons for play-along practice and education. Alesis takes chops training even further by offering a three-month free tryout of Drumeo online lessons. Nitro Max provides all the inspiration you need to transform yourself into a virtuoso percussionist.
Old-school electronic kits often had "drum heads" that felt like you were playing on the top of a Formica dinette table. The premium, tightly woven mesh heads on the Alesis Nitro Max, however, have all of the rebound and wrist-saving give of acoustic drum heads. Less fatigue means you can practice longer and more productively. And if those increased training sessions stretch deep into the night, you’ll never have to worry about bothering neighbors or your family, because the mesh heads are virtually noiseless. So, put on some headphones and rock a virtual arena. Anyone in close proximity to your ferocious beats will hear only muffled thwacks. You won’t have tiny targets to aim for, either. The Nitro Max includes a generously sized 10" snare, three 8" toms, a sturdy kick drum pad, a 10" crash cymbal with a choke feature, a 10" ride cymbal and 10" hi-hats with a foot controller. Transitioning from the Nitro Max pads to an acoustic drum set with a different-sized snare, rack toms and a floor tom is easy and familiar.
The Alesis Nitro Max drum module is the ultimate control center for playing and learning. With 440 meticulously recorded drum, cymbal and percussion sounds from the renowned BFD drum sample collection; 32 classic and modern preset kits and 16 user kits, you’ll be able to play any style and find the perfect vibe for any mood. Precisely capture the sounds in your head by tweaking the onboard reverb and 3-band EQ. When you’re ready to lay down tracks, you can connect to a DAW via USB, or use the drum module’s built-in performance recorder. There are also 60 onboard play-along tracks, a sequencer and a metronome. In the extremely rare case that you can’t find the exact drum sound you want, the USB/MIDI connection opens up a vast expanse of virtual instruments from numerous software companies—including unlocking a bonus premium sound pack via BFD Player. The module also includes essential I/O, such as a 1/8" stereo input, 1/4" stereo line outputs and a 1/8" headphone output.
The Alesis Nitro Max is packed with incredible drum sounds, so you could likely play for years without getting bored. But why not use those inspiring sounds to also expand your chops? Nitro Max offers some wonderful options to do just that. First, Alesis includes 90 days of Drumeo—the planet’s most comprehensive online drum education platform—for free. More than 200 professional drummers provide step-by-step lessons, and you can also dig into 5,000 hit songs, with the ability to slow down or speed up the audio, or even remove the drum parts completely, in order to interpret the tracks in your own way. (Or to check if you’re playing the original parts exactly, if that’s what you are going after.)
The Alesis Nitro Max immediately delivers all the tools for playing and learning the second the kit is set up. A lightweight, four-post aluminum rack saves space and allows the mesh pads, cymbals and control module to be positioned to your liking. Once you get everything set, you can rest easy that the rack and mounts can stand up to even extreme pummeling without slipping out of position. A power supply and all connection cables are included, and you even get a pair of drum sticks and a drum key for tightening (or loosening) the tension of the mesh pads. If you want another tom and a cymbal to get "more metal" or "more prog rock," all you need to do is add the optional Nitro Max Expansion Pack. Finally, if you need to move the Nitro Max, it folds up into a compact configuration that can be stored against a wall or in a medium-sized closet.

The Simmons Titan 70 represents a vast evolution of the Titan series electronic drum kits. Building on the immense successes of the intermediate Titan 50 and entry-level Titan 20 e-kits, the Titan 70 is a no-compromise percussion factory for serious creators who demand exceptional sound quality, near-effortless playability, comprehensive editing and trouble-free integration with DAWs and drum-sample software. For home recording, it’s a lean, mean studio machine equipped with super playable mesh heads and cymbal pads—including a triple-zone ride cymbal—a substantial kick pad that accommodates single and double pedals, 314 drum sounds, 75 presets and user kits, easy editing of onboard sounds, and USB and MIDI connectivity. When you’re in chops-improvement mode, Bluetooth audio streams your “play-along” tracks in the same headphones (or outboard speaker system) as the Titan 70’s drum sounds for an exhilarating, real-world rehearsal experience. The free Simmons Drum 2 app (iOS) adds some essential practice tools, and the Titan 70’s rack even has a detachable shelf to ensure your tablet or other device is directly in view while you’re working things out. Whether you’re a drummer, multi-instrumentalist or producer, the Simmons Titan 70 is the perfect groove headquarters for all of your music-making projects.
One of the many advantages of an e-kit is you don’t need massive shells or different types of drum heads to power the resonance and attack of the toms. Instead, you can precisely tweak the sounds for each of the Titan 70’s electronic, multi-zone mesh heads for everything from massive booms to sharp articulation and anything in between—including the otherworldly, synth-style percussion sounds of the original Simmons kits that powered ’80s new wave tracks and other innovative productions. Of course, it feels pretty terrific to hit generously sized mesh heads that emulate conventional acoustic drums—which is why the Simmons Titan 70 includes a 10" snare and four 8" toms, as well as a solid and sturdy 7" kick pad that can easily handle drummers who channel John Bonham’s gargantuan bass drum grooves. You can easily assign the heads as two rack toms and two floor toms, three rack toms and a single floor tom, or whatever arrangement you desire. A new, heavy-duty mounting rack keeps the Titan 70’s pads locked down and steady no matter how hard you like to bash around the kit. All of the Titan 70 mesh heads deliver the rebound and sensitivity of traditional acoustic drum heads, and multiple sonic zones on the pads and cymbals (two 10" crash and a 12" three-zone ride)—powered by Simmons’ Variable Attack Response technology—offer added expressiveness via snare rim shots, ride cymbal bell pings, crash cymbal chokes and more. Another flexible and hip feature is if you ever find yourself jonesing for a more massive, Neil Peart-style kit, the Titan 70 offers two-zone expansion inputs for adding optional pads.
Simmons has consistently advanced the quality of the sample libraries that are the sonic engines of its Titan series e-kits. For the Titan series, new sounds were sampled from scratch in a celebrated recording studio to ensure ultimate realism and sonic impact—which included capturing the natural ambience of the drum room along with the kit. Furthermore, the Simmons Titan 70’s onboard sounds are sampled in full-spectrum stereo from initial impact to the last wisps of decay, ensuring every boom, shimmer and swack is as real and organic as it gets. As a result, home-studio creators can record authentic drum sounds with the Titan 70 without worrying about microphone selection and placement, or getting frustrated if their studio space doesn’t have the right sonic environment to capture exceptional acoustic drum tracks. In fact, after starting your session with the Titan 70’s comprehensive sample library, you can use EQ, reverb and compression to refine the drum sounds even further. Emulate the kit on a favorite album, imitate the spaces of the world’s greatest studios (Abbey Road, anyone?) or boldly devise unique percussive textures that are all your own.
“How do I record electronic drums?” is a question you’ll never ask yourself while working with the Simmons Titan 70. A built-in USB audio/MIDI interface provides seamless, no-fuss integration with the DAW of your choice, so you can start recording mind-blowing drum tracks whenever inspiration strikes. In addition, the Titan 70’s MIDI capability guarantees you’re never short of exciting sounds, because you can trigger drum samples from just about any sample library available. While the onboard sounds are likely all many drummers will ever need, Simmons acknowledges that some creators are always on the prowl for new and extraordinary options. There’s no need to abandon the Titan 70 if a collaborator or renowned producer has their own go-to, custom drum sample library. With USB and MIDI connectivity on the gig, the Simmons Titan 70 offers versatility, ease of use and expandability, so that you can keep your focus on composing and recording astounding drum performances.
The Simmons Titan 70 is not solely a pro-level e-kit for laying down great tracks. It’s also a virtual tutor committed to helping you improve your chops and seeking out challenging new ideas. The free Simmons Drums 2 app includes metronome and practice modes to elevate your technique and sense of groove, and the Titan 70’s onboard Bluetooth audio lets you stream your favorite songs for play-along fun and education, or even access online lessons you can listen to while you try the exercises yourself. Wired playback devices are accommodated via a 1/8" stereo AUX input, and a 1/4" headphone jack keeps your lessons, practice and writing sessions, sound editing and recording projects as private as can be. That said, when you feel like rocking the nation—or at least a small part of it—1/4" stereo line outputs can send your percussive fury to a portable PA or house sound system.
Imagine not having to compete with big-budget producers and large, commercial studios to craft drum parts with the power, energy and dynamics you hear on hit records. Imagine leapfrogging over years of developing miking techniques to capture propulsive, master-quality drum sounds without even touching a microphone. Think about being able to create your own drum parts—even if you’re mainly a guitarist, bassist, keyboardist or violinist—and document them to build songs, soundtracks and more. As the Simmons Titan 70 has all those "dreams" fully incorporated into its systems, it offers all musicians a graceful and intuitive path to expanding their music-making, recording and production chops.
