Review: inexperienced beginner excellent quality device - it arrived quickly within a few days of ordering complete with a reciept from the place it came from which was nice (probably just a seller thing) the product itself is as expected, the pads are bouncy and feel like a drum to me the controls are easy to get to grips with, i could use the pad right out of the box with no difficulty. you get 4 pads, i did notice if you move the device while it is on a surface or tapped the side of the unit it would activate one of the trigger pads, but apart from moving it if you are using it on a table, i dont think you are going to be hitting the side of the unit. the only down side to this unit is the size of the pads are too small for me. i believe its a problem with me and i need to work on my hand eye co ordination, but i find the pads a bit too small compared to a real drum. also if you set all the pads to one instrument or souind sucha as snare and try to hit say top left pad with left stick and top right with right stick then the device seems to get a bit confused on quicker runs. i used the default factory settings when i tried it btw! so a few other points to note: it appears to have low noise (i didn't hear any static with headphones or line out) which is of course important and was expecting a little noise considering the price of the device so that's really good. it has a midi out, but no in, it also has 1/4 inch jack outputs for L/Mono +R which is great as most units usually just have a trs jack! the other minor downside is the headphones are a bit quiet but easily fixed with a pre amp, mixer, or if used on a stereo like i did in the end, you can just use the amp built into your stereo or cinema sound system. so all in all i really like this product it was hands down an excellent buy and i will be using this in my future projects. in the box you get instructions (i didn't bother reading them!) the unit/ pad device itself a power adaptor some polystyrene (to protect it in transit) a plastic bag (it was wrapped in) there are no drum sticks no stand (obviously) no SD card no built in silly speaker
Review: Beats all competition for price/value - You cannot beat the value for price of this product anywhere. I have now bought two - one for my studio and one for the live band. Next best thing to the Roland Octopad but take a look at the pricing for both and you'll see why my vote goes to the Alesis. Pads are sensitive and responsive, its well builts and everyone likes the blue lighting, especially for the live shows! My only suggestion for improvement is that there's no PC/tablet based editing software for it which would make things so much easier. It's not hard to program a custom kit from your wav samples or whatever but it would just be the icing on the cake. The ability to connect a pedal or snare trigger is excellent although I haven't utlised that function yet. I've used the usb midi with my DAW (Ableton) and it works flawlessly. Great product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What hi-hat controller pedals are compatible with this product?**
A: Hi, Alesis support here! SamplePad Pro is compatible with virtually any Hi-Hat pedal which utilizes a 6.35mm TS cable. Select "SWITCH" if you are using a standard footswitch. Select "VARIABLE" if you are using a variable hi-hat pedal. We'd love to assist further, please feel free to contact us - amzsupport@alesis.com

**Q: can this be used in garageband? can you simply plug it into a computer  and use it that way? (sorry if this comes across as kinda stupid...)**
A: Hey there. 

The pad has a standard 5 pin MIDI connection so to use it with GarageBand you need either a midi to usb converter or an audio unit with "midi in" connections.  

Being standard midi, and not USB, you need a device to get the midi data to GarageBand.

**Q: Does this power by USB or is the power supply required at all times?**
A: Mains power is needed at all times.

**Q: does this let you use a click track?**
A: Probably but haven't tried it. It has an input jack socket so you could connect to another machine. Personally, I'd save your money on this pad and go for the more expensive eight pad sampler which has more options. I go no more than about 50 hours of life out this particular pad before it gave up the ghost completely.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great useful.fun and.relativly cheap
*by N***A on 21 May 2016*

This little item I've had for a week. Its great fun. Sounds great and looks very cool. You can create loops and have it played on this. You can expand your drumming with basically any sound. It's small and fits wherever you want and feels really tough to. I'm very Pleased.. (although one of the tabs didn't work but it's being Replaced.)
