Alesis Forge is a great kit for its price, but if you’re thinking about buying it you may want to know a little more about what makes it good and also how it might fall short of your expectations.

Pros

Sound library: the library of sounds on this thing is great. It is rather vast to begin with, and when you add in the ability to load your own samples, you end up with something that could never get boring.

Preset kits: There are a lot of kits in the Advanced Drum Module, and most of them sound great. Added to the 50 preset kits, there is space for 20 user-defined kits, which – when combined with the ability to load your own samples – means a lot of sonic territories for you to choose from.

Price: There isn’t much to say about the price of this kit other than that it is quite good, given all of the things you get. This kit’s price makes it a great piece for beginners.

Cons

Sound Quality: Don’t get me wrong, this kit sounds great (for its price), but there is still something left to be desired here. Higher-end electronic kits just sound a little better.

Feel: Again, and for the price, the Forge Kit feels great. There are, however, much better-feeling kits out there. In the end, these are still the rubber pads that many of us don’t care for.

As an alternative to acoustic drum sets, digital or electronic kits have become extremely popular in the last few years. In this article, we are going to review the Alesis Forge Kit. If you’re not familiar with Alesis, it is one of the leading electronic drums manufacturers on the market.
