A modernized evolution of the famous SamplePad, the SamplePad 4 builds on the idea of a compact and affordable multipad by adding redesigned ergonomics. More readable blue LED screen, pads with illuminated edges, and intuitive navigation: Alesis has refined the experience to offer a reliable tool for drummers and percussionists seeking a versatile complement.
Ideal for beginner to intermediate levels, it suits drummers, percussionists, and producers wishing to trigger samples, loops, and effects live or in the home studio. Pop, rock, electro, hip-hop, or contemporary music: its built-in library and SD card compatibility allow you to adapt your setup to any context.
The SamplePad 4 retains the 4 rubber pads of the original model while adding a USB port to transfer your files via simple drag-and-drop. Navigation has been simplified to quickly create, recall, and organize your kits. You can tune your sounds, apply reverb, and store up to 89 user kits (512 samples per card), providing a complete repertoire without a computer on stage.
The 25 internal sounds cover essential acoustic and electronic percussion, with clear timbres and sharp attack to cut through the mix. The rubber pads offer a comfortable and consistent response, suitable for ghost notes as well as strong accents. The built-in tuning and reverb allow you to adjust pitch and space to integrate with your existing kit, from tight and precise grooves to a broader, more enveloping texture.
