This kit is great. I have been looking at electronic drums for a long time. I'm sold I am buying these. Great job. Well done.

[@ZaxDrumsandGolf]

Looks great and the modules has some nice features!!

[@sRichterMusic]

Besides the sounds honestly this is such a great kit, having an 18" ride for 990€ is such a great feature, also we can always edit the sounds even if this takes time, thanks a lot millenium and thomann !

[@zensezy468]

you can use ezdrummer for better sound

[@TrentBattyDrums]

I’ll be triggering with a vst anyway, after owning a td17 and not liking the sizes of the drums, this kit is literally my dream kit. Triggering sounds great and I didn’t hear any dead hits in your playing. The extra stand for the module is amazing and especially the 18” ride, which I had to upgrade separately on my Roland. The fact that these are real shells and look great is astounding to me at under $1000. Thank you so much millennium for this amazing kit!! And great review!!

[@jonobrown1218]

I received mine today, awesome kit for the money perfect for practice 🙌

[@jerryluna7331]

Min 3:53 You played L’enfant Sauvage!!! OMG!! that’s a nice touch. Also the drum kit is really cool. Definitely looking forward to get one!

[@amandachassagne2214]

Great performance and instruments!!!

[@jonny526]

Whoa, shots fired to all the big brands with this design to price point. The outs, 360 cymbals, moving hi-hat, bluetooth at this price PLUS a whole acoustic size!! Meanwhile Yamaha didn't bother releasing one acoustic shell version of their new flagship 😬

[@billyGU1]

No? I think they did.

[@Brambo76]

I’m a beginning drummer and will order one. Looks great. Just hope I’ll get the hang of all those settings.

Cool kit !

[@biltateojr8747]

Thank you very much for your time and effort 👌

[@valentinvelevski2133]

It looks and sounds good. It's nice that there is an option for another pad and another crash. It's always better with more elements to play on. I'm considering buying these E-Drums. Thanks for the presentation. 🤘🍺

[@metalgaming420]

you can use EXT behind the module . You can also buy a "spilltercable" to split the signal between extra tom or cymbals ... you can also in additional case if u want many more cymbals /toms added buy a cheaper Millennium 850 module and connect 2 modules together and then you can have almost many cymbals and toms added ;)

[@ihave2feet]

Epic. Looks incredible. Would be super interested to try this out with a drum VST plugged into my DAW

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Go for it! Did you check Connectivity video yet?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmammaljeLloqLc

[@colinrixon9343]

Just got mine wow well worth the money looks really good solid feel got a day off Thursday going to be playing this all day had a few little goes played a couple of kits waiting on a bigger drum mat the drums only took 7 days to arrive and was asked what time would you like it delivered great job Thomann happy guy from the UK 😊

[@mick-tl5ui]

i am likeing this more and more

[@dynamo008]

Hi 😁 thank you for this video. Please tell me if it is possible to save sounds from VST plugins in the module's memory in order to have these sounds without having to connect the module to the computer every time? ☺

[@eDrumsInANutshell]

Wooow. I like those low priced kits. This looks awesome. Huge cymbals. I got the MPS 850 Xmas 2019. I would really like to now, what trigger system is used... Center mounted or not. Anyway, our MPS-850 pads are still working.

[@kevinpedrosaurbex]

Quiero añadir un plato más además de los que ya tiene esta batería, se puede hacer?? Donde se conectaría al módulo?? Graciass

[@thomascope3415]

No midi output? Is the a way to connect to the module to the midi input of an audio interface? As i dont see the usb direct to computer working well with out conflicts if you are usung an audio interface and the same time.

[@GR3G0]

Much more up to date than the new Yamaha e kits!!! Well done millennium!!

[@klausagerbo7213]

I have bought this kit but want to use it with a Roland TD30 module, but the hihat won't work properly with this configuration. Only open sound, can't get the closing sound at all...

[@ppaweluz]

Great review! Thank you! I got two questions 1. There is a mash pad on a bass drum, it does not affect the sound of playing with double bass pedal? No extra sounds etc when playing fast? 2. Does the modul have any trraining features? Roland and Yamaha have so colled Rytm Gates, so first of all it shows you on the screen your accutacy when you play with metrenome, or yamaha could even cut out the sound if played out of time. Does this module have anything similar? Thank you!!

[@FrankRos-qn1ge]

how to get your drums sound from a computer (ZEdrummer 3 ) in to and out through the 8 outputs of millenium MPS 1000 soundmodule ?

[@latinotobia]

Hi, where is the link to download the User Kit (Bonham Style)? I can't find it in the description, i'd like to try, send please. Thanks

[@dwg1982]

Is there only 1 input required for the ride cymbal....seems strange as most rides of this size these days have 2 inputs for bell/bow and bow/edge and 2 ports on the module....worried that this makes this cymbal incompatible with other modules

[@PavlosJesterhead]

4:01 shamelessly playing gojira haha :D

[@angelosk5335]

How do the sounds of this module compare with the sounds of the 2box Drumit 3?

[@pauldrumstimelessmusic1069]

Great review! I hope this kit will be available in Canada sometime. This is a great option without having to spend thousands. Module has a lot of useable features for the price range. This will make gigging more interesting with real look drums instead of tiny discs.

[@simus35]

you can order from there site(they can ship to Canada) because is a brand names for there music store only and you will never find in other music store

[@daveg4236]

did you get them? I am looking to get and we gig quite a bit - need to know about durability

[@Whyverne]

@@daveg4236 I ordered the mps-850 from Canada and they arrived in spectacular condition and play very well! I am looking to upgrade the module so I can attach a 3 zone snare, expand the kit, and add the millenium nonapad drum sample to it as well.

[@daveg4236]

So...2 years later- how are these holding up for those who have them? I am looking at picking these up and we gig a lot so we need something durable. Both hardware and the brain. Thanks

[@user-bo7np6rn4v]

Question ❓ can I add another drum or extra cymbal on the same module,or do I need a separate module for that?,I'm planning on buying one this Friday

[@imwatchinya]

Great video! Love the fact that you can get 5 shells & 3 cymbals and hardware for under €/£1000 shame about the sounds but think bigger millenium! you may have got on par with an alesis module but you still need to smash 2Box & roland.

[@repopaolo]

The hit hat yamaha rhh 135 is compatible with this drums? Please.

[@sabadrum]

Keep wondering if the MPS module is comparable to a Roland TD27, although It looks more like an Alesis Strike to me.

[@ronaldofilgueira9937]

Exellent introduction...thanks

[@Kasi4ever666]

What kit do you think is better,the MPS-1000 or the Fame Hybrid Pro?

[@metalgaming420]

can you import you samples from a pc/laptop vst drumpack into a usb memory into the drummodule? I mean if you can copy the sound from vst via the pc/laptop and then transfer that sound into your module ? ( So you dont have to link the drumodule with pc after the sampel is loaded into the module. thx

[@natural8elements852]

hey good video! how are the settings of your hi hat? I just can't get it set so that it works properly, I'm starting to think that it's defective.

[@matenorth]

Can you layer the imported samples with the onboard sounds and is there a smooth mixing setting like in Roland modules?

[@thisandmatt87]

QUESTION: what about the actual noise of the kit with shells instead of pads? Is noise the same? Wondering about playability in a condo with neighbours

[@haberste6755]

Wie sieht es mit einer Erweiterung aus? Zusätzliches Crash, oder eine weitere Tom? Wurde das Problem mit der hi hat (gost notes) gelöst?

you have many jackstick in the direct out on the module,what are they connected to ?? and what use is direct out for ? thx

Ok, what if I decide to add more cymbals. Can I do that? And how?

[@hdfloyd]

You know even with the 4K Roland VAD kit that is not perfect and the sounds not all that great, this right here is a GREAT alternative for sure as most would be using it as a practice kit anyways.

[@edgarsousa6630]

How about a video with the new versions of this drum set? The white one is amazing

[@PAN21OR]

Is there an option for wires off sound on the snare drum?

[@richardpenrose1968]

This kit is almost perfect for my requirements. The only deal breaker is the rim and cross-stick are triggered from the same zone at different velocity layers. I really wish they cross-stick was triggered from a different area of the rim like the Yamaha XP80 from their DTX Kits!

[@Pokitopoke]

Can anybody tell me how we can add our own track so we can play along with it?

[@OktoPulse]

Hello Simon ! two questions about that new set : - Is the charleston sensitive to hit when closing it AND opening it? (when you hit it and release it right after)? Also, is the USB working correctly to set on VST on computer, as its the only midi signal out apparently? Do the software get the signals easily? ezdrummer etc through ableton. Thanks

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Hi OktoPulse. Thanks for the comment. 1. What exactly do mean with charleston, or was that a typo mistake? 2. Yes the USB is working correctly with a VST Plugin on the Computer. There is a video coming pretty soon exactly about that topic! //Simon

[@OktoPulse]

@@ThomannsDrumBash Thanks for your answer, I meaned HiHats (Charleston is the word we use in france for it, sorry ;) ). Basically while most Hihasts work fine with the cllosing sound (if you hit it and close it right away), it's harder to get the other way around : to have the "opening sound" (hit and open right agter).. I hope its clear, and looking forward for the video ! I like what i see in this one, maybe just the snare looks a bit loosy like moving aroung when you play it.. cheers!

[@elsoundgarden]

@@ThomannsDrumBash I'm waiting for that video before I make my purchase. I use SD3

[@micheletedesco7836]

Is it possibile to use it with a roland Module? (For example TD-17)? At least pads like toms and snare.

[@andyblank2139]

Yes, I am pretty sure you can, but the more expensive Roland modules may require a specialist cable from Roland for the cymbals to work properly (I believe they have a resistor built into them?). I use a Millenium MPS-850 with a Roland TD-6V module and it work a treat, but the TD-6V is an older Roland module.

[@nickmilk123]

There are 9 faders to adjust the 9 different drums pad levels but there are only 8 direct outs. I understand that you can adjust each direct out to be whichever drum pad but If I was to use this kit live or to record with the direct out then would I have to not use 1 drum pad out by default? Please let me know if you have any idea as I am iterested in purchasing this kit

[@jorge.almeida]

I think you can send only a pad/sound to main out, or, build a kit that sends the bass drum to the left channel, the snare to right and mute all other sounds in main mix, then you will have another 8 out :P

[@DennisMartenssonOfficial]

Will the individual pads/cymbals be sold separately? : D

[@eDrumsInANutshell]

Haha, that was the first question that came to my mind! Damn, now I got some Lemon Cymbals... a few month ago.

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Hey Dennis. Yes, the team is currently implementing it. Unfortunately, the individual parts will not be available until the beginning of next year. //Simon

Can’t see the link to the Bonham kit that you mention in the video - it’s not in the description

[@OYMInternetRadio]

How fast can you load a smaple if you are doing a gig? Some kits take forever to load and others are quicker. So, this time delay is very important during a gig.

[@OYMInternetRadio]

I supplied a comment and 7 months later no reply! :-(

[@J4FCovers]

Can this edrum be still suitable for an apartment? Cause it looks like that if you play the kick drum the whole neighbourhood will come after you

[@Nils.Dabeck]

I have this Kit myself in my flat (in a multi-apartment building) and I never got any noise-complaints so far. That kit is really friggin silent, considering.

[@SimplicityForGood]

how to compare this with the 850?! that one is less money of more tom toms! ....but not the look of an acoustic kit.. anyone that tried both that can tell me what to chose?! thanks

[@dwg1982]

I'm hoping its going to be possible to buy additional drums if you wanted to expand...i want a 3 up and 2 down so will want an extra tom-tom and floor tom and also an extra 2 x 15" cymbals, using splitters or an additonal module to connect up........hoping the Thomann website has these available for purchase as individual items It seems strange that they went for a 13 snare and not 14 but for the price point u cant argue too much i suppose

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Hi Darren. Yes, it will be possible to buy single drums and cymbals to expand your setup but not until the end of this year. //Simon

[@angelmourvaldi5581]

Did you buy additional pads? And if yes did you use a splitter for the expansion or an additional module? Because I'm thinking of buying this set and expanding it too!

[@nickveekens]

Just bought this kit. I am trying to play along to songs using headphones and a mobile phone conneted via Bluetooth. The volume of the song is however way louder than the drums. What am I doing wrong? Volume of the drums through headphones is really low, even when not playing other songs.

Good afternoon Simon, this video has been really helpful 👍. I've found the EQ settings as you explained & made some adjustments... My kit has come alive!!. I haven't gone into edit my Trigger menu that you've mentioned yet, because to be honest, I don't completely fully understand the different options. I can hear a difference in sounds, but I don't really understand the graph that you display 🤔. ( I'm guessing it's all down to taste & preference? But I don't know??). Thank you very much for your support & feedback. Kind regards, Shaun 👍.

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Hi Shaun. Sounds amazing. Glad i could help. Yes, it's all about taste & personal preference. Choose the one that feels best to your playing. //Simon

[@callumfriend2523]

Stumbled across this as a possibility for a practice kit at home. Does anyone have any understanding of the outside sound? Is it fairly quiet when hitting the pads and also using the kick?

[@astrecks]

You can still annoy your neighbours with this kit! The mesh pads on the toms and snare would be similar to drumming on cushions or pillows. The kick pedal will vibrate through the floorboards without any dampening. The cymbals and drum rims are noisy and similar to a drum practice pad. I'm assuming you'd like to know how the kit sounds unamplified.

[@callumfriend2523]

@@astrecks Thanks for replying. I have a small electric kit and know the pads are fine its the kick on the floor that is fairly loud. I would always use this with in ear's anyway so not bothered about that sound. It was more in case it sounded louder than a normal roland for example.

Hi. I'm thinking about learning to play drums and buy my first kit, so sorry for my really silly question. Why the snare in moving all the time while you play it? I can see that toms keep stable while you hit them but snare doesn't (seems disturbing to me). Is that because an unstable fixation of this kit or it's a normal thing in every kit? Thank's for your fantastic video!

So, i need a couple of well paid gigs. . . . than i'll know what to do with my money 😁

The MPS-850 does NOT have bluetooth. Not sure why this is stated. The MPS-850 does have a stereo aux in though, which is perfectly fine for playing tracks from a phone or tablet.
