Millenium MPS-150X E-Drum Mesh Set Reviews

Perfect for first time buyer

My first set of e drums, very impressed easy to build and mesh pads feel great, module is a little lackluster but you get exactly what you get for the price, all in all very solid piece of tech!

The set is very quiet, solid and perfect for begginers. I like the overall quality of the product!

A drumset for a total beginner/kid

Hi this is my review , i ll try to share my opinion to help someone in the future when considering this product.

Very fast, my background : I m a previous Millenium user of the MPS-100 Rubber pad kit , which i bought 15 years ago.It was also the entry kit at the time at a pricetag of 300 Euro if i m correct.

Now into the MPS-150X mesh kit.

Pros:

1)Very Very Quiet . Coming from rubber pads i couldn t believe how quiet the mesh heads are.

2)Compatibility with previous set , hardware wise as well as the module ( i combined both of them for a bigger set)

Cons:

1) Kit is very small , much smaller than my previous entry set.(regarding the horizontal bar distance and what you can fit in there. Also lacks the lower horizontal bar for support.

2) Module is far worse again compared to the previous one that i had , comparing entry product for entry product.

3) The Cables connecting pads+cymbals to the module are not equal in length and are not anymore a jack to jack cable.Meaning that if i can't take the cable from a pad and use it to connect my guitar to an amplifier for example. (like my previous kit was).

Furthermore this may cause you problems with the set up depending on how far you want something from the module.

4) The module sounds are atrocious in sample quality and very few.

This is a problem easily fixed if you connect your drumkit to a pc via usbA to usb(the cable is not included , its very cheap to get though)

5)All drumheads are monozone sound , no rimshots. Crash and ride have choke , but sometimes it's tricky to activate , maybe i need more practice on that. I expected at least a dual zone snare drum 10'' while toms can be 1 zone 8'' a feature that is found on the next tier on the 450 Kit.

6)The triggers are low quality regarding the speed of the hits.So above a certain bpm , module can't easily recognise the input.

Something that you would expect from an entry kit, but i'm just saying so you have an idea of what you are buying.

All in All , a kit for absolute beginners with 0 expectations , if you dont have a problem with noise go for the rubber kit ! if you care for the noise, the mesh heads are exceptional , what i'm only afraid about them , is the durability and the life span they will have , as i m writing this on the 2nd day of setting the drum kit up.

Also if you are buying this for your kid , especially with heavy metal influences , expect an E-kit to not withstand many years of abuse from heavy beating.

A basic kit , VERY quiet!

Right now seems to be a good option for the entry category, (not having tried the competition of course), BUT quality for the pricetag has fallen so so much through the years, let alone the 20% extra price from inflation.

Thanks for reading!

lack of sensibility on cymbals

as title, cymbals have to be hit strong. Not bad on drums and it don't sounds bad, but charleston pedal have no sensibility: it's on or off like a child keyboard. Prepare to spend 100e more (on charl. pedal) if you want to seriously study

Good product

I like this Millennium MPS 150X E Drum model 🙂👍

Amazing drum kit

We are using this drum kit MPS-150X in our church for 5 years already and its amazing. Still the drum pads are intact and working great! Recommended for others wants to shift from acoustic to electronic drumming.

Nice

I bought this e drumms and they are my first e drumms ever.Everything is fine,totaly easy to connect parts and everything... only minus is that sound quality from the headphones that are connected to drumm is not so good but i use it in daw with ezdrummer and then sound is good

Absolutely Perfect For Beginners

I gotta say, I am really shocked by the quality of this drum set at this price point. I got this as a present for my son. After comparing all of the prices similar electronic drum sets, this is almost as low and you can go, and there is still exceptional quality. There is a learning curve to the assembly if you have never set up drums before, (like me), but other than that, this is a smooth ride. The kit shakes a bit when playing pretty hard but this can be adjusted by how you place the rack and by tightening all of the bolts where the pieces connect. The onboard sounds seem pretty good given the price point, I have heard some negativity about that. Also, the bass pedal is absolutely spot on, that I know. The response is also really good, I have heard complaints about that. The only real con that I have with this set is the rim that is on each of the drum pads. Given the size of the pad, the rim is definitely too tall. You can adjust to this, but it can definitely be an annoyance. With that being set, I would still recommend this drum set to anybody, at this price point, it's basically disposable. If you are learning, you can bang away on this thing for years before you upgrade.

My son is happy!

I bought them for my son to his birthday. He asked me for a year to buy drums. He loves to drum with pads on my keyboard, but he also was asking me about the real drums.

This set is perfect for beginners. Easy to assemble, good sound, several kits, everything that is needed for a young drummer. My three years daughter also loves it and tries to play.

Excellent Value

Bought these for a child who has shown some promise with a snare drum, but now I play them sometimes as well. These are not pro-level pads but they far exceed my expectations in terms of quality, sound, and playability. For a beginner set or a second set for use in an apartment these are excellent. I have not connected them to an external sound source / used the USB/MIDI in any way so that may make them even better. After almost a year of 2x weekly use they are still good as new. A great value.

Very nice kit

I am very happy with this kit, use it as a midi controller.

Great for beginners!

This is my first drum ever and i think it's pretty good for a beginner. At this price the fact that you can buy a full mesh e-drum is incredible. The shipping was pretty, considering it was christmas time. Overall i'm happy with my choice.

Pro

- Competitive price;

- Full mesh e-drum;

Perfect for a beginner that doesn't want to spend too much on his first drum.

Cons

- Not that easy to assemble (probably because it was my first time).

Terrible Instructions

The instructions are totally useless!!!! How do you connect a computer etc!!!!!!!! If you have a wooden floor get ready for deep scratches from the bass drum!!!!!!

Basic mesh kit

Good for a starter mesh head kit

Sounds ok but nothing special.

Great kit for a beginner!

I bought the installation for my son. He is very satisfied! There was an opportunity to study at home, almost at any time. Nice sounds and realistic bounce. Missing two-zone snare pad. But, this is a different price!

A great starter kit!

Easy to set up drum set however the manual isn't comprehensive. The images on the website are much better so I used them. This certainly needs some attention especially for starters. The manual for the e-drum module however is extensive. The kick drum and hi-hat controller can be secured by velcro or screws. The quality of the material is great considering the price. It feels very solid and gives you value for money!

The unit is very responsive and it has a good feel to it. If you're a starter this set is perfect. There's another cheaper version but I would definitely go for mesh heads.

The kick drum

A really good starter kit

The mesh drums of this kit are really good. 5/5 feel,quality and response. Bass drum is amazing and really similar to a real kit.

The cymbals are mediocre with ok response 3/5

Drum module is very basic,with ok sounds for the price.

Also the ride is single zone.

The very negative thing about this kit is the rack itself. It is flimsy, even if you tighten everything to max , it will always fall apart . Hitting the snare two or 3 times will lower it. So if you get this kit I would suggest getting a snare stand of appropriate size. Overall for the price this mesh kit is really good!

Good kit for starting out and MIDI recording

The mash heads and real bass drum pedal is what I wanted for my first kit. And there work great. The feel of playing is great for me because of that.

The sounds are not the best but I connect it with MIDI to Cakewalk and get the sounds from VST plugins.

A few things I am missing: rimshot trigger, hi-hat more than just open and close, cymbals more than one trigger point. But I can live like this and really enjoy playing these.

Great for Starting

I?ve been a guitar player for 15 years, and wanted to get into drumming.

Since I live in a small flat surrounded by neighbors, i went the e drum route.

So far, has not disappointed. Of course some of the dynamics are lost vs. acoustic kits, but still good for a beginner to learn some chops.

The unit is very responsive, not a problem there. The mesh heads feel nice, however on the snare i feel sometimes you have to hit it just right to get a full sound. (No rimshot support unfortunately)

This drum set will be perfect if you?re a beginner-med player and are looking to practice without bothering the people around you.

best for beginner

not quite a drummer, but i bought this for recording and it's great!!
