The Ultimate Companion in Digital Percussion
The Nitro Max kit has a large 10” dual-zone mesh snare drum, a kick drum tower, and three (3) 8” mesh toms. It comprises a complete drum kit consisting of three (3) 10” cymbals, custom-designed Alesis hi-hat pedal and kick pedal, and a durable four-post aluminum rack. Also included is all the cabling, the power supply, sticks, and the drum key. It all connects to the Nitro Max electronic drum module, which has 440 drum and percussion sounds, 40 drum kits, and 60 built-in play-along tracks. The Nitro Max drum module includes the convenience of Bluetooth as well as a built-in cradle to hold your tablet or smartphone, which makes learning with Drumeo or Melodics—or simply playing along with your music—even more accessible.
Nitro Max exclusively includes three months of access to Drumeo, the world’s biggest online drum education platform. Drumeo provides step-by-step lessons from over 200 of world’s best drummers and over 5,000 hit songs to learn: the original recordings by everyone from Nirvana to N.W.A. To master these tracks, songs can be sped up and slowed down, and drum parts can be removed altogether, allowing the drummer to play with the rest of the band. Plus, there’s unlimited personal support and an online community of over three million players to help budding drummers achieve their goals.
Nitro Max also comes with 60 free lessons from Melodics, the app that uses innovative practice tools to help you to develop your skills.

“The previous Nitro Mesh Kit was extremely popular around the world” says Director of Product Management John Boudreau. “The Alesis mesh drumheads were a huge leap forward—drummers loved them as their responsiveness made them incredibly playable, but their quietness was perfectly suited to home use. With Nitro Max, we’ve held on to the things people value in the mesh heads, but added a new larger snare; even better sounds; Bluetooth so you can practice along to streaming services; and a huge additional offering of 90 days of free lessons with Drumeo, practice tools with Melodics, and the BFD Software player for connecting Nitro Max to your Mac or PC. We’re very happy to be able to deliver all this to Nitro Max users.”
