The MPS-450 offers over 400 sounds for building your own drum kits. In addition, it includes 80 play-along songs and various training features, which you can easily adapt to your personal level of playing. The integrated recorder makes it easy to keep track of your progress. The drums, which are fitted with mesh heads, deliver an authentic playing feel while being less noisy than traditional rubber drum pads. With these features, the MPS-450 is a versatile, easy-to-use electronic drum kit, which delivers endless fun during practice.
The components of the MPS-450 are sized to provide ample playing surfaces in a compact package. With its dimensions of 120 x 80 cm (not including the seat), it fits easily into any apartment. With two additional trigger inputs, it’s ready to be expanded with additional pads. The drum and cymbal pads can be positioned freely, so the drum kit can be set up for use by adults or kids. Thanks to the lightweight, yet sturdy aluminium rack, the MPS-450 can be moved easily by one person.
An electronic drum set should ideally feel just like an acoustic kit, and mesh heads are the best way to achieve this. The mesh heads are more flexible and easier to play on than hard rubber pads, while producing much less noise. The low noise level is a great advantage on the bass drum pad, which is played using a standard pedal. This makes for an easy transition if you use an acoustic kit for your drum lessons or at school.
One thing is for certain: With 408 sounds, you’ll never get bored drumming! We’ve put together 30 drum kits, including many natural-sounding kits for rock, metal, pop or jazz. But you’ll also find electronic sounds for styles like house, R&B, techno or hip hop. If you prefer Latin or African music, there’s a complete set of percussion sounds for that, as well. You can create ten additional drum kits of your own. Via the USB and MIDI connectors, you can also access sounds on your computer or keyboard, so the possibilities are almost limitless.
