MPS-850 E-Drum Set : The best E-Kit for the price

6 years ago

I am a metal drummer, I've owned and have been playing acoustic drums for the past 8 years, I recently moved house and have been having trouble with my neighbours due to the noise while also wanting to record with my band, I bought GGD samples and started looking for electronic drums, I found this drum kit and just by reading the feature sheet, I knew it was perfect for me!

Pros:

- Cheap price

- all cymbals are chokable

- ride with bell (triple-zone)

- all pads are two-zone

- Fairly large sizes

- durable rack

- mesh pads feel nice

- everything triggers well enough

- inputs can be split to add more pads

- kick pedal and hi-hat stand included

- sample import

- aux in

- faders to mix the sound

- overall has a lot of great features.

Cons:

- Ride bell only sometimes triggers if hit really hard and really accurately

- a lot of x talk

- my crash 2 input was single-zone

- module sounds are not very realistic

- sample import only allows one-shot samples

- very sensitive triggers but not very dynamic in terms of velocity

overall I would recommend this kit to anyone with a budget of under $1000 because although the module sounds arent great, you can use sample software such as GGD, Superior drummer or steven slate drums, and have large pads to enjoy, the only other drumkit to compare this to is the Alesis crimson or the Alesis DM10 and both of those kits are much more expensive with similar features just larger sizes (by only 2 inches) and unless if your main problem comes from the ride, just use a splitter cable, use tom 4 as a single-zone pad, and get a triple-zone ride which would make this kit the best drum kit under $1000
