PERFECT sOUnD, FEEl, lOOKs, AnD DURAbIlITy All AT A PERFECT PRICE

Perfect. It’s a word that’s thrown around a lot these days. but with the DM8 Pro

Kit, you might just find it. The Alesis development team painstakingly examined

all aspects of what makes a kit the best possible choice – all with the goal
of creating the perfect electronic drumset. If you imagine sound, feel, looks,
durability, and price as the faders on a mixer, the DM8 Pro Kit is the perfect mix.

The DM8 Pro Kit features the barrier-shattering DM8 high-definition drum module
with Dynamic Articulation™. Our latest drum module in a line now spanning 20

years, the DM8 builds on the success of the top-of-the-line DM10. The DM8 shares
the DM10’s essential architecture, including playback of genuine recordings of

real drums and cymbals and advanced Dynamic Articulation™ multi-samples.

The DM8 Pro Kit is the first electronic drumset with 16-inch Ride and 14-inch Crash
cymbal pads, and it’s also Alesis’ first kit with large, 12-inch snare and floor-tom

pads. The DM8 Pro Kit features Alesis’ RealHead drum pads and DMPad Cymbals.

Drummers know that hardware can make or break a kit. That’s why

we carefully considered every element in designing the DM8 Pro Kit’s

stageRack. This rugged, four-post rack features 1 1/2-inch metal tubes

for universal compatibility and sturdiness. The clamps on the StageRack

adjust with large wingscrews for easy, tool-less adjustments with no

drumkey needed. And boom/straight-convertible cymbal arms mount in the
vertical rack down-tubes for optimum flexibility in cymbal positioning.
