Millenium MPS-1000 Monitor E-Drum Kit with Built-in Speaker
No need for an additional drum amp!
“Why hasn’t anyone else thought of that?” Integrating an e-drum amp into an e-drum kit’s bass drum is genius! The Millenium MPS-1000 Monitor comes with precisely that. Plus, it’s one of the best-value drum kits already.
Millenium MPS-1000 Monitor: Pro e-drum kit with Everything included
You know, how you get these all-in-one bundles, for drums or guitar, and then one of two essential elements like the drum hardware or the guitar strap is missing? Not with this one. Drums, a drum module with sounds, cymbals, hardware, drum throne – I wouldn’t be surprised if Millenium also included a pair of drumsticks.
And the MPS-1000 is their flagship model at a price that is way below the competition from Roland, Efnote, or Alesis. This is the setup you get:
- 20″ x 16″ Bass Drum (with integrated monitor box)
- 13″ x 5,5″ dual-zone snare pad
- 10″ x 06″ dual-zone tom pad
- 12″ x 06″ dual-zone tom pad
- 14″ x 14″ dual-zone tom pad
- 13″ dual-zone Hi-Hat pad with foot controller
- 2x 15″ dual-zone crash pad with choke
- 18″ triple-tone ride pad with choke
And since these are e-drums, you can play any genre you like! What’s even better is that Millenium has included all the necessary hardware. You get three cymbal stands, a drum throne, a snare stand, a kick pedal, a dual mount for the toms, and a stand for the e-drum module. But there is more for the MPS-1000 Monitor.
Monitor inside the Bass Drum
If you’re more of an acoustic drums type of drummer, you may be wondering why in the world you’d integrate a monitor speaker into the bass drum. Wouldn’t that destroy any beautiful low frequency resonance? Mind you, we’re in the world of e-drums, where every sound is triggered by the module.
The drums are literally just there to be hit and don’t make much of a sound by themselves. However, you may not be the biggest fan of wearing headphones. Or you sometimes play live where the in-ear-monitoring setup os suboptimal. Or you just might be missing that ‘oomph” of the physical bass drum. That’s where e-drum amps come in. And with the Millenium MPS-1000 Monitor, it’s built right in to the bass drum.
You also get the drum module with the MPS-1000 Monitor. It has 40 factory kits, 40 user kits (with 820 sounds to choose from), a built-in metronome, 23 effects, eight direct outputs, two headphone outputs, and 335 megabytes for user samples. Furthermore, there is a USB-A port to connect an external hard drive or USB stick for loading additional drum samples and a USB-B port to connect to your computer.
How much does the MPS-1000 Monitor from Millenium cost?
For what you get, it’s one of the best budget e-drum kits on the market. The Millenium MPS-1000 Monitor costs 1,098 euros at Thomann*.
