Does the job well

I bought these to try out with an A2E conversation and to be fair they work really well. I've been using them constantly for over a year and they haven't faltered, they are a little noisy but I suppose any electronic cymbal would be from what I've seen. It looks to me like they are a clone of the alesis cymbals but at a fraction of the cost.

good

exactly what you'd imagine it is

Unexpectedly noisy

The pad itself is good, but due to the thinner rubber edge plastic part resonates and emits more noise compared to stereo pads (850mps stock ones).

Though it looks like it can be fixed by attaching some heavy rubber clamp on the plastic part

Bueno. Hay algo con la sensibilidad

Lo adquirí para expansión de una Alesis Nitro Mesh como platillo Ride. Sucede que al tocarlo una vez, a veces dispara un doble sonido (como si lo golperara con dos toques muy rápidos). Estoy seguro de haber ajustado bien el hardware y la sensibilidad del pad en el módulo, sencillamente creo que algo no anda bien ahí. La emisión de ruido es algo que se debe mejorar, tal vez la capa de goma es muy delgada y no ayuda.

Does the job, but not qiuet

I use this on my millenium kit and in comparison to teh cymbals that come with that kit this pad is pretty loud.

Works with DTX402k!

I have bought this mono cymbal as a cheap upgrade to add an extra crash to my Yamaha DTX402k and it worked without problems. The only thing I had to do was to tune the gain and thresholds. An extra clamp is needed to attach supplied rod to the main rack (38 mm tube).

A good one from Millenium

I bought this for a friend of mine. He is really happy with those cymbal pads. It takes years to break even under his hands - hard hitter ;) Until then everything works just fine - plug, cable, perfect.

Good value mono pad

.... the rubber fixed to the playing area is thinner than on my Alesis cymbals so these are a bit noisier to play, but if you use good insulating headphones not a problem. Ideal as a second crash, but obviously no choke facility. Triggers well and supplied with cable so for the money, you really can?t go wrong.

Only for crashes, but super cheap!

Well, this is a low quality (but also low expectation) cymbal. It has no choke and the playing feel is off, since as they state in the description, it has uneven weight distribution.

If you only want to use it as a crash or a china cymbal, than I can recommend. Price is an important factor and these ones are the cheapest. So for crash usage, go for it!

I have this plugged into an Alesis DM10 and works perfectly o.k.

I am very happy with it but be careful what to expect!

It does the job well

I have to say im impressed with these pads. Very nice building, you can hit it everywhere always the same volume/speed.

I bought one to match the extra crash2 input on my MPS-425 and it rocks !

Nice and simple

This is a single zone pad that should work on pretty much every module out there. I've tested this on both the Alesis Nitro and a Roland module and it was pretty much just plug and play with no extra tweaking required.

Build quality seems solid and playability is good enough, especially considering the price.

It's obviously not a professional level piece of equipment but definitely worth it if you just need a simple trigger for a practice or beginner level kit..

Great value add-on cymbal

I use this to trigger a sample on a SamplePad and it interfaces perfectly with that device. It does not matter that this is a mono pad in that case, but if you were looking to use it in a more complex setup its "single" voice might be an limitation.

Construction-wise it is built like a tank and I reckon it would take some amount of abuse before breaking.

Well worth the price for me as it has just worked from day one and it fitted onto my drum rack with the Millenium Rack Clamp C no problem.

Widely used

This is compatible with my Alesis set and very likely compatible with XDrum, Behringer and all other sets that use these Medeli pads as they are only different in the company logos labelled on them. The rubber surface is quite thin though, so the hits are coming through as hard loud knocks. I used some rubber tom dampers on them, cut to shape with scissors and glued with the best cheap substance in the Universe ever, the neutral silicone sealant. Now my cymbals are silent and working nicely.

cymbal pad

Yes they are cheap, but if you want delicate touches picked up they`re no good. It works fine if you batter it like you`re trying to kill it all the time!

Great addition

This a was a great addition to my Alesis DM, much better quality than the DM ones. Still going strong are many years. I would recommend this product if you are looking to add a little more colour to your current setup. It has an excellent response, and worked great configured as a ride cymbal in my set up.
