Millenium MPS-1000 | In-Depth Demo | Thomann

[@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!!

[@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!

[@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

[@donaldlegate6377]

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.

[@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 😬

[@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.

[@D3MOLISHER]

This and the mario duplantier archetype gonna smash my house

[@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 ;)

[@GR3G0]

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

[@ZaxDrumsGolfandMore]

Looks great and the modules has some nice features!!

[@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!

Great performance and instruments!!!

[@simonevans8724]

But being an e-kit - what does it sound like when its NOT plugged in / playing through the headphones for home practice ?

[@JohnBradford]

check this video out - playing the kit without sounds - includes a lot of stick clicking to give a reference to volumes kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqnXe2WuidKNrck

[@alecualex5920]

How loud is the sound in the room? What is actually heard when you hit the drums and how loud?

[@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.

Nice video. Could you also share on how to set up the pan setting? i.e hi-hat with all trigger panning to slightly left, and cymbals.

[@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

[@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.

[@lovesomeome13]

Great sounding kit for this price point it's honestly unbelievable for under a grand and it comes with all the hardware! Most don't come with hi hat stand, pedal for the bass and at these sizes for the toms! It's gonna be a contender for sure with other drum modules especially since it is a conversion sort of kit! Truly amazing price honestly! I do have a question Is it compatible with other drum modules like Roland td 17 module?

[@MrMyMRI]

Please anyone answer! Especially if the bad latency of 10 milliseconds would be cured by another module. Important question for me!

[@brashy1975]

I was wondering the same thing. I have a pearl mimic pro.

[@andresacuna1632]

En teoría si se podría utilizar con otro módulo Roland, por ahí he vistos con la batería Millenium mps 1000 con módulo td17

[@ronaldofilgueira9937]

Exellent introduction...thanks

[@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.

[@HinzRafael]

this is amazing! great review

[@ThomannsDrumBash]

Thanks so much! Glad you like it! //Simon

[@DarrenGraham1982]

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!

[@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

@@ThomannsDrumBash Yeah! Could you comment on the trigger system question? Center or Alesis like system? The snare/tom pads.

[@okjames2954]

This is pretty good for the price. You get alot of nice features. It can work as a shell-based practice kit and if you mess around with some fx and editing outside the module, you could have lo-fi/indie drum sounds. Right out of the box, it doesn’t sound great but if you are creative and think differently, you could make this work.

[@wm1573]

I don't think a good e drum exists where you wouldn't need ezdrummer/addictive drums etc. Unless you have 12k to put into an e kit. It doesn't matter if the built in sounds are bad

[@nelsonvaldez7114]

So based on what I see there's no way to add a extra Tom?

[@metalgaming420]

add it to the ext behind the module...you can also buy a "splitter" cable and assign an extra tom or extra cymbal :-) if you really want many more extra cymbals and toms you can also buy a cheaper mp850 module and connect those together. These are the options I found out by researching the net and youtube videos :-)

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.

[@olivarius-SirOli]

Nun ja ich denke für den günstigen Preis kann man hier nicht viel mehr erwarten. Die teureren Rolands und Yamahas klingen da einiges natürlicher und nicht so roboterhaft. Da wird aber auch mehr Entwicklung in die Drummodule gesteckt. Immerhin, so wie ich das sehe kann man mit dem MPS-1000 eigene Samples benutzen, und was EZ Drummer und Konsorten betrifft, das Drummodul per Midi (USB) an den Computer anschliessen. Somit kann dann EZ Drummer über Midi getriggert werden.
