Alesis Strata Core Electronic Drum Set

World-Class Sound. Professional Feel.

Living up to the meticulous standards set for the Alesis Strata line, the Strata Core offers drummers outstanding playability, exceptional sound quality, and durable curved steel rack construction with a compact footprint.


A powerful yet compact addition to the Strata line

The Strata Core is a pro level e-kit that punches above its weight class rivaling alternative drum sets with higher prices and bigger footprints. Experience exceptional sound quality and realistic playability in this powerful yet compact addition to the Strata line.


Drums

A dual-zone snare drum with independent sounds triggered on the head, rim click, and rim shot, followed by 8”/8”/10” dual-zone toms and an 8” kick drum provides ample playing surface, suitable for all varieties of single and double kick drum pedals. The tension can be adjusted on all mesh heads, letting you set the exact level of rebound and expressiveness to your preference. Unnatural and unwanted ‘hotspots’ on the heads are eliminated with our unique patented anti-hotspot sensor design.


ARC Cymbals (patent pending)

Strata Core’s ARC cymbals are exceptionally sensitive with a beautifully lathed surface. All three cymbals - the 14” ride and two 12” crashes - are triple-zone with different sounds triggered on the bell, bow, and edge of each cymbal. They’re all 360-degree responsive, so that you can play anywhere throughout the cymbal and mount on standard acoustic arm mounts, which allows them to respond and swing naturally without restrictions. All cymbals have dual-edge sensors and profiles that allow incredible expressiveness without having to adjust your technique.


Hi-Hat

The 12” Active Magnetic hi-hat is a superbly playable magnetic, stand-mounted system. Like the cymbals, this triple-zone 360-degree playing surface is extremely responsive. Magnetic position sensing ensures that pedal movements are translated in high resolution, meaning the contactless system is unmatched in its accuracy. This module-powered unit can be used with a wide variety of hi-hat stands and playing techniques.


Hardware

The backbone of Strata Core is a curved steel rack where the toms, cymbals and module are mounted. Sturdy but flexible, it allows for spacious and compact footprints so you can adjust the kit to your ideal playing position for your setup. The ARC hi-hats mount to any hi-hat stand, and the 8" kick tower can accommodate any single or double pedal configuration. Crash and ride cymbals can be mounted to standard acoustic cymbal stands and are not bound to the rack mounts.


Heart of the strata core

The heart of the Strata Core is a powerful drum module featuring a 7” touchscreen display and a powerful BFD sound engine running on a multi-core processor. With over 25GB of content, across 75 kits, 370+ kit pieces, 800+ articulations, and 144,000+ samples with multiple adjustable microphone channels you’ll find what’s right for you.

Experiment with a “stacks” function for layering articulations and mixing individual microphones. Control options include rotary encoders, separate volume knobs, and Bluetooth 5.0 streaming. Jam creatively with a customizable trigger engine supports all modern Alesis E-kit triggers, MIDI connectivity, and USB storage for sample imports.


The Strata Core ships with four sound libraries

The multi-core processor runs the legendary BFD sound engine. This enormous library of drum kits was immaculately sampled by top engineers in some of the world’s finest drum recording spaces. With over 25GB of factory sounds, 370+ kit pieces, 800+ articulations, 144,000+ individual samples, drummers can experiment and develop their personal sound and style.
