Millenium MPS-850 08" Mesh Head Kick Pad

Very strong build, ok feel and good responsiveness (for its price).
Not very good with double pedal though, sounds a bit off.
It sounds much more noise compared to the rest of the mps-850 set and it's thi only part that neightbours may hear a bit. Maybe this can be adjusting by placing it on a vibration cancelation surface and cover its back with some towels.

*Note*: Seems like few of them have a very low sound. If replacement is not possible for some reason, there is a fix you can do:
1. Open the pad
2. Add few extra centimetres of sponge and paste it with super glue on top of the other sponge
3. Put back the mesh head
And this is it :)

p.s. Thomann please address this issue because some people may think the quality is not good when the real issue is few centimeters of sponge!

I bought this Millenium MPS-850 pad for my Roland TD-1DMK drum kit.
The trigger worked well when the beater was set to the very bottom of the net. In order to get feedback from the center of the drum, like other buyer reviewers, I pasted a felt circle on the foam of the trigger, which improved the responsiveness. The mesh is thin, single (in comparison with Roland - there is double). For the experiment, I set a regular Roland pad (PDX-8) as the kick drum - and it was much more sensitive than this MPS-850 pad (very weak hits are not always caught). In the future, I will try to move the trigger itself to the center of the drum, I wonder if this will improve the sensitivity by 100%. In principle, the product pleased me, this pad is more interesting than the small rubber pad from Roland TD DMK-1.

pros: cheap pedal , large diameter
cons: it is not suitable for double pedal for 2 reasons
1. i had to open the pedal and add 4 spacers at the base of the sensor because the high of the sensor was not at the same level of the kick sponge and the whole system did not read the pedals especially at high speeds.
2. it doesn't have volume level knob and the volume level (lower) is not the same with the other pads . So It needs a kind of preamplifier before the possessor in order to cooperate with the other pads . The drums I have is a Rolland Express 4 After these modifications the pad is ok for playing.
