    Description
    The Alesis HR-16 (High sample Rate / 16 bit drum machine) is a user friendly, yet extremely powerful MIDI drum sequencer / sound generator. The sound generation capabilities of the HR-16 include 16 independent drum "voices", each of which can be assigned to any one of 49 digital samples, and can be routed with a 7 position pan to one of two sets of stereo outputs. Each voice can also be tuned independently in 32 separate increments over an octave an a half.
    The sequencing of the drums is accomplished by entering record, and than playing on the touch-sensitive drum buttons on the front panel, which is then stored into a "pattern." There can be up to 100 patterns in the HR-16's memory (00-99). These patterns can be anywhere from 1 to 682 beats long. The patterns can be combined into lists of patterns, which are called "songs." There can be up to 100 songs in the HR-16's memory(00-99), and each can contain a list of patterns up to 255 steps long.
    The 16 drum pads at the front of the HR-16 are velocity-sensitive. How hard the pad is hit determines the volume of the drum on 8 levels. 12 of the pads (all pads except Closed Hat, Mid Hat, Open Hat, and Crash) are each directly assigned to a voice. This means that playing a pad repeatedly will retrigger the same voice, and no other pad will effect that voice.
    Any sounds assigned to the three Hi Hat pads will all be assigned to the same voice. This is so that playing the Closed Hat will cut off the Open or Mid Hat, for a more realistic hi hat sound. The Crash pad is assigned to two voices that alternate. This means that repeatedly hitting the crash pad results in two independent crashes (of the same sound) that can overlap as they decay.
    More sounds can be made to overlap by assigning the same sound to two different pads and alternating which pad is pressed each time the sound is to be played. Only 15 voices have been used (12 normal pads, 1 voice for Hi Hats, 2 for Crash). The 16th voice is used for the Click, which can also be assigned to be any of the 49 available Specifications
