  • Press the Variation Button so it is lit green, and then press the 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 Button to select Kit 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 (respectively).

The Kit number will appear in the display. Once you have selected a Kit, you can select others by repeating one of the steps above or by using the - and + Buttons.

Playing the Pads

If your electronic drum kit has velocity-sensitive pads, this drum module will play sounds of varying timbres depending on how hard you hit the pads. Try hitting the pads with different amounts of force to experiment with the different sounds produced by the module!

Note: The hi-hat sound will vary based on the position of the hi-hat controller pedal:

  • Open hi-hat: With your foot off of the pedal, hit the hi-hat pad.
  • Closed hi-hat: With your foot pressing the pedal all the way down, hit the hi-hat pad.
  • Pedal close: Press the hi-hat pedal all the way down without hitting the hi-hat pad.
  • Splash: Quickly press the hi-hat pedal all the way down, and then release it immediately.

Learn more about using the drum module in the Using the Module section of this manual.

Note: After powering off, this feature will be re-enabled. Repeat the procedure above to disable it each time you power on the module.

Using MIDI

About MIDI

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard way in which certain electronic musical devices can communicate with each other. When two MIDI devices are connected, they can send/receive MIDI "messages," "data," or "information" over either a 5-pin MIDI cable or a standard USB cable (depending on the available ports on the devices).

In the case of the DM Lite module, you can connect its USB port to a USB port on your computer with a standard USB cable (sold separately). All MIDI messages will travel to and from your computer over this connection. This allows you to do one of two things:

  • Use an electronic drum kit connected to the drum module to trigger sounds on an external MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer, your computer if you use software that can receive MIDI notes, etc.). See Triggering Sounds on an External MIDI Device later in this section.
  • Use an external MIDI device to play sounds in the drum module. See Using the Drum Module as the Sound Module later in this section.

ALESIS DM LITE - About MIDI - 1
Triggering Sounds on an External MIDI Device

  1. Using a standard USB cable (not included), connect the drum module's USB port to a USB port on your computer.
  2. If you are triggering sounds in software, skip to the next step.

If you are triggering sounds in an external MIDI device, make sure that device is connected to your computer (either directly via USB or through a USB-MIDI interface).

  1. Set the active track of your MIDI software, sequencer, etc. to Channel 10, and start recording.
  2. Play your electronic drum kit. The MIDI information will be sent to your computer, sequencer, etc. See the Trigger MIDI Notes section of this manual's Appendix for a list of the MIDI notes sent out by each trigger.
  3. Stop recording.

ALESIS DM LITE - About MIDI - 2
Using the Drum Module as the Sound Module

  1. Using a standard USB cable (not included), connect the drum module's USB port to a USB port on your computer.
  2. If you are using software to play the drum module's sounds, skip to the next step.

If you are using an external MIDI device to play the drum module's sounds, make sure that device is connected to your computer (either directly via USB or through a USB-MIDI interface).

  1. Set the the active track of your MIDI software, sequencer, etc. to the desired channel (1-16).
    Note: Channel 10 of the drum module is reserved for drum sounds.
  2. Play your sequencer or other external device to hear the drum module's internal sounds.
  3. See the Presets and General MIDI (GM) sections of this manual's Appendix for lists of the available sounds.
