Alesis Strike MultiPad is a new percussion pad instrument with the ability to sample, edit, loop entire sounds on the fly using an internal 32 GB storage!
Alesis has introduced over the weekend the Strike MultiPad, a new percussion pad instrument. Ok, there are many percussion pads on the market but this one can do much more than a normal one. The Strike MultiPad lets you sample external sounds, edit and loop them on a color screen and use them in your studio or on stage.
It offers 32 GB of internal storage where 6 GB are already filled with high-quality samples and loops. Additional 5 built-in effect processors allows you to refine the sounds in the end. On the connection side, it comes with multiple ins/outs, USB audio & MIDI interface, multiple external triggers as well as a USB port for external storage. In short: the Alesis Strike MultiPad is not just another percussion pad instrument but also a looper and sampler in the same device.
