Alesis SR-16. Ik kocht deze lang geleden en kon er mee lezen & schrijven. Na 30 jaar ging ie kapot. Ik kocht de SR-18. Die is uitgebreider en dus: ingewikkelder. Die ging de deur weer uit en ik kocht opnieuw een SR-16 :-)

Ik stel een eigen Drumkit samen, maak dan Patterns en zet die vervolgens op en rijtje in een Song. Zo makkelijk. Ik gebruik het voor kladblok ideetjes (snel) tot serieuzere opname waarbij ik ook b.v. swing gebruik of meer dynamiek door volume's af te stellen.

Voor mij is ie geweldig, goeie sounds !

Enigste spijt is dat ik hem nooit eerder gekocht heb. Aparte uitgang voor kick en snare, die dynamische articulatie en die snares.. Die snares.... Dit ding leeft en met zorgvuldige programmering is het net alsof er een drummer zit te ass kikken. Dit apparaat maakt je gelukkig.

Er zit nog best wel een spreekwoordelijke "learning curve" aan dit apparaat.

Aangezien de step sequencer niet grafisch wordt weergegeven, zoals bij m'n oude Yamaha RY-8, maar met de getallen van de tellen en sub-beats is het stepsequencen even anders dan anders.

Sowieso heeft dit apparaat een geheel eigen bediening, zonder recordknop, maar wel met een redelijk logische opbouw qua functies per knop.

Niet persé intuitief, maar na een beetje rondneuzen met de handleiding erbij zit er wel een bepaalde logica in.

De drumgeluiden zijn, zeker voor van 16-bit naar 24-bit opgepoetste samples uit 1990 erg goed.

Er is een ruime keuze aan allerhande kicks, snares, toms en bekkens, en je kan in "User" geheel je eigen kits samenstellen en afstemmen (tuning, volume, velocity) naar wens.

Net zoals elke drumcomputer moet je het instrument eerst leren kennen, maar ik denk dat ik er mettertijd wel uitkom.

Het fijne is dat je elk patroon een A-, en B-kant kan geven, en elke kant een bijbehorende fill.

Zo kun je, technisch dan, met 1 patroon, fills en de B-variant al een eenvoudige song maken.



Ook kan je de SR-16 natuurlijk ook door een rits effectpedalen heenhalen indien nodig.

Ik denk dat ik hier wel vriendjes mee kan worden.

Ten zeerste authentiek klinkende 80s drumcomputer. Die kicks en snares.... :) En de rest! Niet opgefokt, zoals in de hedendaagse retrowave, maar waarachtig en onvervalst. Logisch ergens, daar de Alesis SR-16 al sinds 1990 in de winkelrekken ligt, en sindsdien geen enkele wijziging onderging.

Op de DAC na. Die is nu 24bit ipv 16bit. Niet dat je daar iets van hoort, of dat 24bit minder vintage zou klinken. 24bit biedt de mogelijkheid op een groter dynamisch bereik, maar dat surplus blijft in de praktijk geheel onbenut. (http://www.head-fi.org/t/415361/24bit-vs-16bit-the-myth-exploded).

Minpunten:
1. Clap samples: er zijn er slechts twee, en ze klinken allebei onnozel.
2. Om de drumsamples met enig volume te doen weerklinken, moet je echt hárd op de drumpads tikken. Onderburen vinden dit niet prettig. Als workaround kan gelukkig wel een fixed velocity curve ingesteld worden, of kan je de SR-16 vanaf een andere controller aansturen.

Pluspunten:
AL het andere.

Een tijdje geleden gekocht en gebruikt. Erg leuke machine voor het geld. Alleen een probleem: de MIDI out was niet in orde. Het patroon dat uit de machine kwam was niet correct. Geweldige service bij BAX moet ik zeggen. Ik hoop deze nog eens opnieuw te kunnen bestellen en hopelijk is dat probleem er dan wel uit.

Alesis Sample Pad 4 - Ideal for Ensembles

Tuesday 3 November 2015

Let's be honest; a large drum is great to look at, but it's also cumbersome and quite expensive. The same goes for a number of other instruments. Beautiful as they are to behold, not all musical instruments are equally manageable. Fortunately, Alesis offers a practical alternative with their Sample Pad 4.
