About ‘Alesis’ category
Alesis develops a nice range of products like keyboards, synthesizers, hard disk recorders, iPod recording and playback devices, electronic drums, mixers, signal processors, effects units, amplifiers and speakers. One thing remains consistent, the passion for inspiring musical creativity and innovation through new technology.
At it takes more than just designing, manufacturing and selling digital, analog, semiconductor and transducer technologies to fulfill the dreams of musicians, producers and audio engineers. It takes unforgettable musical experiences. The experiences can vary. They can be as simple as a gig at a local club recorded on an Alesis iMultiMix 8 USB, as familiar as a practice session on an Alesis DM5 Pro Kit in the basement or as memorable as that Rock Tour recorded on a tried and true Alesis ADAT.
That’s what sets Alesis apart from the crowd and why this brand continues to be on the leading edge of professional audio and music technology.
Alesis History
Established in 1980, Alesis was founded on innovative semi-conductor chip technology and award winning industrial designs that allowed entry level musicians and recording artists to afford professional studio recording products that were never affordable before. Alesis introduced the world’s first professional 16 bit effects processor under $1000, the Midiverb. Next, Alesis progressed into studio quality drum machines with HR-16 and SR-16 as well as synthesizers, studio monitors and mixing consoles.
In 2001, Alesis was acquired by Jack O’Donnell (that also owns Numark), and ever-since the company has delivered more solutions and value to musicians than ever before. Under his leadership the company ventured into producing the worlds most affordable analog mixers with built-in Digital Signal Processing (award-winning MultiMix Series Mixers), an advanced yet affordable full line of electronic percussion products (USB Pro Kit, DM5 Pro Kit, SURGE Cymbals, Performance Pad), as well as as highly innovative and adaptable computer audio interfaces and controllers (MasterControl).
Alesis is committed to delivering the most innovative and inspiring professional audio gear for musicians, producers and engineers of all levels.
