SR-18 Portable Drum Machine

January 18, 2008

Alesis introduces the Alesis SR-18, a professional drum machine with integrated FX engine, battery operation and cutting-edge percussion sounds.

The legendary Alesis SR-16 ignited the drum-machine market in 1990 and has remained a classic ever since; the SR-18 is designed to meet the demands of today's musicians. It follows in the tradition of its ancestor and is loaded with cutting-edge drum kits, electronic drums, hits and up-to-date percussion sounds for any modern drummer. From hip-hop to country and everything in-between, the SR-18 has it covered.

The SR-18's integrated effects engine includes Reverb, EQ and Compression for customizing sounds to perfection. Since the SR-18 can be powered by AC or batteries, it ensures that whenever you need to lay down a groove you're fully-equipped and ready to go.

SR-18 features include:

  • Large, 32MB sound set with percussion bank and bass synth
  • Built-in Effects - Reverb, EQ and Compression
  • Battery Power for maximum portability
  • Pattern Play Mode enables different patterns to be triggered from the pads directly
