An experience so realistic you'll forget it's a digital kit
Designed for percussionists of all levels, the Alesis Nitro Ultimate offers high-quality sound, realistic response, and modern features. Built for comfortable playing in bedrooms and small spaces, this nine-pad digital kit immerses you in an organic playing experience without the volume of an acoustic drum set.
Authentic feel, ultimate playability
From its movable stand-mounted hi-hat pad to the responsive dual-zone cymbals and mesh-head drums, the Nitro Ultimate kit sets a new standard for playability and performance. The Nitro Ultimate module offers over 640 sounds, many of which come from the drum software specialists at BFD, and syncs with your phone via Bluetooth connectivity to let you play along with your favorite songs and videos.
Whether you are learning, rehearsing, recording, or performing, the Nitro Ultimate invites you to immerse yourself in an unprecedented drumming experience.
Movable stand-mounted hi-hat pad
The Nitro Ultimate’s hi-hat control unit is designed to work seamlessly on a traditional hi-hat stand for an authentic and familiar feel. By using your own stand, you can play with more nuance and dynamic control, just like on an acoustic kit, with the comfort and responsiveness of a setup you are already familiar with, instead of having to adapt to an unfamiliar configuration or a floor pedal.
Dual-zone cymbals with choke functionality
Get the clear "ping" of a ride, the rich tone of a crash, and responsive choke functionality, all in sleek, grooved cymbal pads. The Nitro Ultimate includes four 10-inch cymbals: one ride, two crashes, and one hi-hat with a stand-mountable control unit.
Dual-zone mesh-head drum pads
The Nitro Ultimate’s dual-zone drum pads allow you to play naturally and express yourself fully. This highly responsive technology used on the three 8-inch toms and the 10-inch (deep) snare allows for more advanced drumming techniques like rimshots. You can also choose to assign different sounds to the rims to add more color and variety to your drumming.
Robust steel rack
The reinforced four-post rack with curved steel bars is both sturdy and extremely adjustable. Whether recreating the layout of an acoustic kit or creating a custom configuration, the flexible design makes it easy to adapt to your preferred playing style. The rack adjusts effortlessly to fit your height, so you can create your perfect setup and play with confidence.
