Bass Drum Trigger

An incredibly sensitive and dynamic "reverse beater" bass drum trigger that uses your own bass drum pedal (or ours...)

The eKIC uses the same "nuBounce" material that is currently used on the malletKAT and trapKAT. This nuBounce material has a very dense molecular makeup, transferring with ease soft hits to the sensor. Because of its density however, it becomes more resistant to harder hits, allowing for harder playability before the sensor reaches dynamic saturation.

The eKIC includes an additional ¼ input for chaining two eKICs together with a ¼ mono cable (included)!!!

Alternate Mode is going WHITE

Sep 25, 2018

In the next few months, we will be transitioning the powder coating metal and sensor overlays of our malletKAT, vibeKAT and trapKAT products to a new, bright white body.

This beautiful and contemporary look is further enhanced by also including a solid black nylon coating atop of the pads. This coating is not just aesthetic, but provides additional protection of the pads from the sun, rain, and general abuses.

The Kurzweil Sound Card (KS) comes to a close

Sep 21, 2018

This year, Young Chang, the maker of the Kurzweil sound card, unexpectedly decided to stop manufacturing the sound card for Alternate Mode. We still have some left, but will soon no longer have the KS available as we want to keep a supply of repair boards available.
