    Default Alesis Percpad / Sample pad

    Does anyone here on the forums own, or used, an Alesis Pecpad or Sample Pad?

    I am leaning toward the "percpad" as a reasonable (under $100) trigger for some different sounds. The sample pad offers a bit more but runs about $100more.

    The reviews online look pretty good, but wondering if anyone has had their hands on them.

    Are you talking about the Alesis pad that sort of looks like a Roland Octapad? Or is it another piece of Alesis gear?

    Yeah, that will be great, there's hardly that many Sydney stores that deal with Alesis gear, which is probably why I haven't come across the PercPad as yet. Give it the 'going through' Longgun, and post your review. Doesn't seem too bad on the YouTube videos that I've seen so far.

    I've been seeing a lot of used Alesis pads out there, I'm curious to know how they are too.

    Well, ordered it on Thursday and it was at my house on Friday....played it all weekend.

    I love it....it provides 25 "common" effects....like cowbells, handclaps, snaps, etc.....a great little accent piece.

    It does have it's limitations...cant add sounds, but what do you expect for $80.

    Messed around, placing it in different spots on the kit....think I've found it's spot just below my hats. Here are some pics:
