I can’t get over how cool the module looks, I mean I love the how the faders look

[@louisholz1862]

I like the kit, but the over sized Millenium logos have to go. Should just have the blue // M Drums logo, much classier. Will change out the front Bass Drum head to Black. Very nice drums!

[@milleniumdrums]

Noted! We'll think about that!

I know this is a crazy question. I have a Aleisis nitro mesh kit. A friend of mine wants to sell me his millennium MPS-1000 drum module. Can I use that module with my nitro mesh kit by Alisas?

As long as the inputs fit, you're ready to go!

[@chrismackie7900]

I just purchased the MPS-1000 kit & I'm very impressed with the construction, design & overall playability of the kit. I have a couple questions that I haven't seen addressed in any videos related to the kit so far & I'm hoping you will be able to shed some light on these matters. The first question I have is regarding linking the MPS-1000 module to a DAW(Logic Pro X) & external MIDI software(Superior Drummer 3). I am not sure how to link the MPS-1000 module to record and get playback through the outside software, so I was hoping to find out a way to do so. The second question I have is regarding using a double kick pedal with the kit & if there is anything additional needed to allow optimal performance if a double kick pedal were brought into the fold. I noticed that the trigger pad area for the kick doesn't quite seem large enough to accommodate 2 beaters so I was wondering if I'm mistaken, or if there is a sensor upgrade needed/available. With the double kick introduction is there any particular sensor setting that is optimal or required to utilize this type of playing. Thank you in advance for any help you may provided regarding these questions & I look forward to hearing back from you so I can get the most out of these drums.

1 year later - no answer....

[@sanimoze31]

@@Maria68Maria68 need help with questions above? To link it in daw you need to set "omni" in kontakt. First you need to enable it in daw midi settings. I use Ripper and its pretty simple. Then the track you set to input midi and you chose e-drums. Ofc you need the usb cable to connect it to the computer. Second question, I use double kick and it works like charm. A bit of work in the settings for the triggers and thats it. No need for a sensor upgrade or anything. IT works.

Thank you so much for the detailed description. Very helpful.

[@LeonardoVotto-w7b]

Something That I did not see in the video was a menu for the zone settings of the pads, for instance, triple zone rides normally need to have zones set up, how do I proceed with dealing with trigger zones, and trigger types, like piezo and switch?

[@joyster75]

You can do that right now!

I've emailed Millenium with a couple of questions about the load time for a sample, but they have not responded. I'm thinking of getting one of these kits but if they cannot be bothered to email back a potential customer that has a query, I might have to think twice! It's not just the cost but the support you get from a company that's important.

[@milleniumdrums]

Sorry to hear that. What exactly is your problem?

[@OYMInternetRadio]

@@milleniumdrums I'm trying to find out what the sample time is when you change from one song to another. If your doing a gig and you have sampled drums, you cannot afford to be waiting 5 minutes for samples to load, so I would like to know what the load time is. Also, I'd like to extend the kit with an extra hi tom and maybe a floor tom. I know there is only one aux, but on my old kit I split a stereo channel and could add more drums. Can this be done with this kit?

[@WillihamG]

[@ponsiopilatos5179]

I have not understood the calibration of the external trigger. How can I assign samples to it?

[@BingBong5611]

Bro, your video is so helpful. I just got a kit with the same module and I was worried I made a mistake of buying it cause it just wasn’t responding right. I learned so much from your video and now I’m so happy with the kit. Quick question: is there a way to clone or duplicate a user kit to another?

[@freddyflanell]

Hey! Great video! It would be really nice if you could share a optimal settings sheet or something that would mimic the feel and sound as close as possible to a acoustic set!

[@freddyflanell]

Actually if that was something you got that running nicely I think it will open up a lot of eyes for people who have a bit of bad eyes for these kind of drums! I mean I use it with a VST preset through the computer and it sound and feels soo close to acoustic drums but it's something still in the settings of the module I don't get just right!

[@milleniumdrums]

Worth considering... Thank's!

I’ve added an extra floor Tom to the EXT but it doesn’t recognise it. I’ve connected the extra Tom to Tom 3 cable and it works so it’s not the drum 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@milleniumdrums]

Hmmm... is the floortom from the MPS-1000 series?

[@TheCowgirlNiamh]

@@milleniumdrums sorry, should have updated! It was a Millenium 14x14 added. I’m not the drummer, it’s my little one but we got it working after doing a full reset. His teacher recommended a few level changes on certain drums and cymbals to make it more consistent when he plays acoustic so I think that’s what the problem was? He’s since discovered that a 16x16 is available so that’s on its way now 🙄🤣 I presume that will just take its place and work out of the box now that the module is set up for the extra Tom. 👍

There are 9 faders to adjust the 9 different drums pad levels but there are only 8 direct outs.

You simply combine the three symbols (2 crashes and ride) and put them in a stereo output pair.

Since you added an additional floor tom, can I add an additional crash cymbal from any brand?
