Kits - Alesis STRIKE User Manual

Kits

The Strike module contains 110 preset kits. You can also create and save your own user kits onto an SD
card. You can save as many user kits as your SD card can hold.
If you edit a preset kit and then save it, the saved kit will be stored onto your SD card, while the original
preset kit remains unchanged on the module's internal memory.
You must have your SD card inserted into the SD card slot in order to save changes to preset kits.
Selecting Kits
To select a kit:
1. Press Kit to show the Kit menu (the default view
when you power on the drum module).
2. Press F3/Preset to choose from your preset kits or
F4/User to choose from user kits on your SD card.
Turn the data dial to scroll through the list (the
current kit name is shown at the top of the page).
After you stop moving the data dial, the kit will load
automatically.
Alternatively, press F1/List to show all kits as a list.
Press F3/Preset to choose from your preset kits or
F4/User to choose from your user kits. Use the
cursors to switch between the kit categories (left
panel) and kits (right panel). Turn the data dial to
scroll through the list. After you stop moving the data
dial, the kit will load automatically.
Important: Your Strike module can load large
amounts of high-quality samples for an extremely
realistic playing experience—and you don't have to
wait until it's done loading to start playing. For some
of these larger kits, you can start playing immediately
as the drum module continues to load samples "in
the background", shown by the Streaming indicator.
