The ultimate electronic percussion interface

The Alesis Trigger I/O is a powerful new electronic percussion interface designed
to bridge the gap between the ultimate control and feel of a real drum performance
and the extensive capability of software and hardware sound modules. The Trigger
I/O converts playing from your favorite percussion interface, whether electronic drum
pads or acoustic drum triggers, into MIDI note messages. Featuring both MIDI
out and USB connectivity, the Trigger I/O can be used to play sounds on synths,
drum modules, or on your computer – straight from your drum kit. Bundled with
FXPansion’s BFD Lite – a professional software drum module with high-quality
acoustic and electronic drum kit libraries - the Trigger I/O will get you up and rocking
in no time.

With ten trigger inputs and its versatile MIDI out functions, the Trigger I/O is the
perfect interface for musicians who want to expand the scope of their current
equipment to include control over computers, samplers, synths, or other MIDI
modules. Its intuitive interface and 20 programmable presets allow for easy setup
and quick user operation. Plus, the bundled FXPansion BFD Lite software provides
an additional source of creative material.


Applications

The Trigger I/O can be used by any percussionist at any level in their home, studio,
or during a live performance to control various software and hardware sound
modules, all while maintaining the feel of a real percussion performance. Additionally, the mounting holes for an optional drum stand mount make the Trigger I/O adaptable to any environment.
