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.
Every detail of the Alesis Strata Core has been designed to deliver a responsive and natural experience for intermediate and experienced drummers. The all-mesh Strata drumheads have adjustable tension, the 360-degree ARC cymbals are free to move and respond like acoustic cymbals would, and the Active Magnetic hi-hat ensures crisp precision and accuracy.
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.
Central to the Strata Core is the Core Drum Module, featuring a 7” touchscreen and a multi-core processor running the BFD sound engine. This module offers over 25GB of content, including 75 kits, 370+ kit pieces, and 144,000+ samples. The customisable trigger engine supports modern E-drum triggers, while a “stacks” feature allows layering up to four articulations per zone for a richer playing experience.
The module provides extensive control options, including dedicated volume knobs, Bluetooth 5.0 streaming, and multiple trigger inputs for expanded connectivity. Users can quickly audition new sounds and customise kits, applying effects to individual kit pieces or groups with ease. The Core Drum Module’s interface is user-friendly, offering intuitive access to all its powerful features.
Included sound libraries provide a range of tones, from the Alesis Core Acoustic sounds recorded at Powerstation Studios to the electronic hits from the Strike Multipad collection. The BFD Dark Farm and BFD Percussion libraries add further depth, offering rich acoustic textures and diverse percussion sounds that complement the Strata Core’s versatility.
The Strata Core is designed for drummers seeking a portable, feature-rich electronic kit. Its all-mesh heads, versatile hardware, and powerful Core Drum Module make it a valuable addition to any setup, whether for practice, recording, or live performance. Please note that the kick pedal and hi-hat stand are sold separately. With ongoing software updates and support for modern E-drum triggers, the Strata Core is built to adapt to the evolving needs of drummers.
