Alesis DM6 Kit Features New Brain That Has More Voices Than KITT
KITT has been voiced by two prominent actors in its TV career, William Daniels (Knight Industries Two Thousand) and Val Kilmer (Knight Industries Three Thousand). The Alesis DM6 module, in comparison, has over 108 voices at its disposal. What does this say about the infamous chariot of Michael Knight? Umm. . . nothing, really.
It says loads about the new Alesis DM6 Kit, though, the new electronic drum set, introduced as MusikMesse, that's built around the DM6 module. The five-piece kit features Alesis low-vibration-feedback rubber pads, as well as a two-zone snare drum. It also ships with hi-hat, crash and ride cymbals, as well as a kick drum tower and kick pedal. The DM6 even includes a pair of drum sticks.
As for the brain, the DM6 is a total redesign of the DM5 module. No longer a rack-style-unit, the DM6 is a more user-friendly module, with controls for switching, editing and saving presets much more readily accessible. Should you wish to upgrade your kit's trigger pads, the new hybrid SURGE cymbals are supported, allowing for more realistic techniques like choke stops. The DM6 is also ready for use as a MIDI-trigger, perfect for playing plugin percussion modules like BFD or Reason's ReDrum.
The Alesis DM6 should be shipping within the next few months.

I am not interested in spending money.
I get very little money and I need to watch what I do with what I get. I have not had a hand out because I am not a car dealer. If I could get a hand out to help with my bills,then I would have enough to buy from your firm. Because the economy is running like it is. My hands are tyed to buy anything that I don't really nead. Thanks for understanding my plight. Best regard's and God bless to you and your friends. Happy Resurection Day

Hello,I im in the search of the smallest drum module I can get.
How can I find out how thick or thin the DM6 is.It looks quite small in lenght but I cannot find the picture where I can see the thicknes.
This is very important for one of my projects.
Thank you for your answer and thumbs up.

DM-5 - DM 6
I've used the DM-5 18 bit, for about 7-8 years. It's a good unit with excellent programability & great design but I'm waiting to see how these pads & DM-6 stack up.
TD-10/20 has better overall better/ more features, like stereo dual FX + a greater ability to deeper drum sample editing, kit creation per ac. drum parameters, MIDI control via PAD. A better methodology than the DM5, in that's more like a studio than an "line out".
I still think the DM5 is awesome...rock on...Bam
looking for work with you...talk to my manager!

DM6 Shipping Date
I called Alesis the other day and asked when the DM6 would be shipping. The rep said end of September or first of October. A bit behind schedule, apparently!
Voices on DM6
I've had my DM6 a couple of months and I find it really good value for the price... very realistic sounds! The only problem is: where do I find a list of the 108 voices? I am using the 10 preset kits plus a few more voices but there are lots more and not all in a logical order... enough to get lost. Can anyone help? thank you
