I rarely review products online, but i have to help out fellow drummers looking to purchase this kick pad.
I bought it as a replacement for an older Millenium kick pad which died on me. It took more than a month to arrive, but that was somewhat indicated when i made the purchase. I think it was 2 weeks later than the original estimation. No big deal, it was covid + holiday season.
My issue with the kick pad is the same one that the Russian gentleman a few reviews below experienced. Indeed, hits do not register well, even with adjusting sensitivity and dynamic on my drum module. Tightening the mesh did not help, and i like it medium tight anyway. It was quite obvious that there is not enough contact surface for the hits to transfer well to the pickup. So i thought i'd try what my fellow reviewer did, and started looking for super glue, kitchen sponge and scissors. But i found something even better in by cupboard - self adhesive furniture protective pads, the ones you would put under your sofa or dining room chairs. They were about the same size, so i stacked a few together to give it an additional cm of height, and when i put the mesh back on, it was neatly pressing on it. The kick pad came alive, but i still had to readjust dynamic and sensitivity to my playing style.
