“Texas” Tim Root, as he’s known in drumming circles, has traveled the world for over 30 years promoting electronic drums to a wide variety of professional, hobbyist and student audiences. A skilled player and experienced teacher, Tim studied at the University of Houston and the University of Texas San Antonio 
as well as privately with Keith Karnacky, Randy May, Joe Raynor, Joel Fulgum and Ed Soph. He has conducted over 300 drum clinics worldwide, including duos with Bill Bruford, Chester 
Thompson and Vinnie Colaiuta
.


Command is an 8-piece electronic drum kit with our exclusive Alesis snare and kick drum Mesh drum heads (Patent Pending) that deliver an authentic drumming experience, with “real drum” sound, response and rebound. There are also two 9” dual-zone rack toms and an 11” dual-zone floor tom. This set is designed to deliver a great feel with a lifelike drumming sound. The setup also includes the powerful Advanced Drum Module that features 70 drum kits (50 factory pre-set + 20 user-customizable) with over 600 sounds and 60 play-along tracks and a built-in metronome. 


Alesis Forge KitForge is a complete 8-piece electronic drum kit that features an 11” dual-zone snare and three 8” tom pads for great feel and natural response, 
plus a kick drum pad with pedal. Three cymbals provide a range of playing expression: a ride cymbal, a crash cymbal with choke function and a responsive high-hat. The setup also includes the powerful Advanced Drum Module that features 70 drum kits (50 factory pre-set + 20 user-customizable) with over 600 sounds and 60 play-along tracks and a built-in metronome.

Alesis Nitro KitNitro is a complete set that features four dynamic rubber drum pads—an 8-inch snare drum with dual zones for a great feel and natural response.

Three cymbals—ride, crash w/choke and hi-hat— give players a virtually unlimited range of versatility and playing expression. Also included is the powerful Nitro electronic drum module with hundreds of percussion sounds, 40 different kits and 60 built-in play-along tracks.

“Alesis is excited to be at the Chicago Drum Show, showing our latest gear and meeting and talking with drummers from all over,” Said Tim Root, Global Product Manager for Alesis Percussion. “I’m really looking forward to the Alesis Drum Lab. Demonstrating gear, giving lessons, and talking ‘shop’ with drummers is what we love to do most at Alesis. This is what it’s all about.”

All three kits are currently available. Command is $699 US retail. Forge is $499 and Nitro is $299.
