Alesis Turbo MAX





Beginner-Friendly Setup, Pro-Level Sound

Alesis e-kits have been trusted by professional musicians and producers at every stage of their drumming careers. Designed and developed specially for aspiring drummers, the Alesis Turbo Max is where your journey begins.

The Turbo Max brings together everything you need for the best learning and practice experience..all in a compact, comprehensive electronic drum kit. Learn the fundamentals of drumming, hone your skills, explore new sounds, and find your signature style with this compact, full-featured kit that's ready right out of the box.





Includes Everything You Need to Start Drumming
From the moment you unbox your Alesis Turbo Max, you'll have a complete drum setup from kit to accessories. This electronic drum set includes four mesh drumheads, three cymbals, full-size kick and hi-hat pedals, a full-height adjustable rack, a drum throne, over-ear headphones, sticks, and the Turbo Max Drum Module with built-in sounds and kits.





More Convenient Than an Acoustic Kit
The Turbo Max's ultra-responsive mesh heads give you a natural drumming experience without the noise factor of an acoustic kit..perfect for shared spaces, whether you?re in a single-family home, apartment, or small studio.

This kit's compact footprint means it can easily fit in so many different settings: set it up in bedrooms, living rooms, or practice spaces. Whether you?re rearranging your space or moving your setup to another location, this interconnected kit folds up for convenient storage and transport.

The Turbo Max also allows you to tighten or loosen your drumheads, just like you would on an acoustic kit, to fit your preferred playing feel as you develop your skills.





Built-In Sounds for Creative Inspiration
At the heart of the Turbo Max kit is the feature-packed Turbo Max Drum Module.
The included sound module features 12 custom-designed classic and modern drum kits with 110 individual drum sounds for immediate inspiration.

The sound module can be connected to an external sound system or amplifier such as the Alesis Nitro Amp (sold separately) using stereo outputs, or you can plug in your headphones for a quiet and private practice session.

The Turbo Max Drum Module also features an integrated drum coach, including 20 play-along tracks, as well as specially designed rhythmic exercises to help build and improve your skills.





Bluetooth Integration for Practice and Jamming
Turbo Max's Bluetooth integration allows you to stream your favorite songs directly from your phone, tablet, or computer. It?s perfect for jamming or practicing along with interactive lessons. You can also connect to music apps and recording software for more opportunities to expand the possibilities of this setup as you grow your skills.

Looks good for a beginner kit. I think Alesis is stretching a bit (marketing wise) stating "Full size pedals" and on the video stating "large cymbals".
The Bluetooth audio is a nice touch. It's going to come down to price. The Alesis Nitro Max is only $399.00, so in order for this to be a deal it would need to be much lower than the Nitro Max. Otherwise a new buyer is better off with the Alesis Nitro Max.

Ironically the Cymbals are probably the smallest produced by Alesis at 8"...
I was looking at a set for Splashes etc since they are hammered and closely resemble  the STRIKE Cymbals....see if the Kit gets the usually discount for Holiday Sales...with an eDRUMin you can get a Dual Zone using the bell sense.

Digital Drummer did a simple write up a few days ago...

Alesis launches sub-$250 Turbo Max

Alesis Drums has announced the launch of the Turbo Max, a compact, all-in-one seven-piece electronic drum kit designed as an accessible entry point for new drummers. Retailing at a highly competitive price of $249, the kit aims to provide a complete drumming solution right out of the box.

The Turbo Max is positioned as a comprehensive package, which is particularly notable given its price point. At $249, it stands as one of the few, if not the only, seven-piece kits available in this category, a significant achievement considering the ongoing tariffs on imported electronic musical instruments into the US.


The Kit has been in the Amazon Alesis Store going on a month for $269.00...I waited for "Official Release" before posting..

Looks like it's got some competition (for today anyways).  Simmons Titan 50 - stupid deal of the day 9/25/2025 - $249.
Link changes daily for a different product.  https://www.musiciansfriend.com/stupid

From this video, it looks like a decent deal:

Edit:  I guess it's competition for the Nitro Mesh.  So many names to keep straight.  :-[
