I love this demo! Just plays the sounds out of the unit so you can hear the quality of what you are getting. I just ordered this from AMS because of this video. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Well done. :) .... selling now online for $89. ok...it is a few days later...I have received my KTMP1 and it is even better than I had hoped. You can tune each sound so really you have hundreds of sounds to use. pads are amazing...too good to be true. perfect for what I have to do
And with the midi out you can expand to use it with any electronic drum module drum machine or synthesizer that accepts midi. This does seem like a great valuem compared to the alesis sample pad 4 which doesn't even have two pedal inputs like this one does!
I took advantage of that $89 deal as well! I try real hard but I’m not a real drummer, I can play a drum machine like nobody’s business! lol, I have mine hooked up to the Yamaha Dtx multipad12 which IS a sampler and a brain. Then I have a DTX snare this, and a 75, not a toy but kind of looks like one. I Already had the hi-hat and kick to that. It’s good enough for me! Peace all!
For it's price it's one of the best for what it does. No...It's not a sampler and it doesn't save presets or have preset kits. You get 50 sounds you can arrange on 4 pads (it does retain the last selections of pads you used when you turn it off and on again). You can use it as a studio controller or record direct sound or midi in. It's better than Alesis as a pad in the fact that response, sensitivity and polyphony is far better. Not as good as Roland pads but then they are also 6 times the price even for the cheapest ones. Playing live gigs, the samples are pretty decent. Again I think they are much better than Alesis but I would say Roland is superior. Lastly it seems rugged. It is plastic but I can tell you how many times it's fallen out of my gig bag or the car and it still keeps on ticking. Value priced for the $130 bucks including shipping.
@@andrewgarcia4762 Mine is ticking healthy. Plugged into my studio rig for quick percussion. I was hoping they would have a sequel to it but no such luck.
Hello! Thank you very much for a great video! One question you. When I connect my KICK pedal, I can assign to it any sound - for example KICK, or SNARE, or SNAP etc. But when I connect my Hi-Hat Pedal, I am not able to change the sound of Hi-Hat pedal; it only sounds as Hi-Hat. Any ideas how can solve this issue? I would like to assign the sound of Clap to the the Hi-Hat pedal… Thanks a lot in advance!
Should be noted that you're listening to the feed from the line output, which is a decent representation of the sound from an audience POV... But when it comes to playing on the pads and the noise and feel, it feels like you're tapping on the interior of a base model Kia.
I bought one yesterday to add latin sounds to my kit for live performance. It sounds and plays good for such a cheap price. ($119.00 US) The big drawback IMO is you can't set up scenes, you change sounds on the pads but you can't save them as scenes and simply change everything by going to another scene. For me and my application this isn't an issue because I just needed conga / bongo sounds and hand claps and the price is about the same as a set of decent bongos. But the lack of being able to make scenes can be a big issue for some applications. And not being able to make scenes is the reason this guy goes through the sounds on one pad. It was the only real way to show us all the internal sounds. OH and the stand attachment is crap, it's made of plastic! I have it mounted with a clamp and it's great BUT I know the stand attachment won't last. I'm going to ask the maintenance crew where i work to reproduce the stand attachment for me in metal.
I bought one of these second hand on ebay for $70 AUD the other day. They are going for $200 new without pedals or $380 with pedals. I would be kicking myself if I paid that much because although the build quality is good......the sound, response and dynamics are all terrible. The reverb has 10 settings....although it only changes between sounding like you are playing in a giant hall, or having no sound at all (you can hear the reverb overload in this review if you have a good headset). I owned a Yamaha DD-55 electric drum pad 10 years ago which had a more natural sound, along with better dynamics.
Thank you. This video demonstrated that this item is definitely not for me as it does not have a "closed hihat" sound and I need and want that in order for it to be mini drum kit for me.
RESPECTED SIR, I LIKED YOUR PRODUCT VERY MUCH, I AM IMPRESSED WITH YOUR PRESENT TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTED IN KAT KTM P1. 1. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHETHER THE STORAGE OF NEW INSTRUMENT IS AVAILABLE AMONG THESE FOUR PADS OR NOT? 2. MAY I KNOW HOW MANY STORAGE BANKS ARE AVAILABLE? 3. ONE OF MY FRIEND HAS ALREADY BOUGHT PADS FROM DIFFERENT COMPANY, IN WHICH HE HAS STORED AN INSTRUMENT BUT AFTER THE BOOTING, WE ARE UNABLE TO HAVE THE SAME INSTRUMENT WHICH I STORED EARLIER. IS IT POSSIBLE IN THIS KAT KTM P1? KINDLE PLEASE EXPLAIN ABOVE QUESTIONS. ----------------------- REGARDS, KRUPANANDAM, ANDHRA PRADESH STATE, INDIA

Can these be played with your hands? My drummer has retired to a cajon and wants to supplement with some digital hand controlled or foot trigger cymbals. Is there a sensitivity dial?
Yes, it can be played with your hands. There is no sensitivity dial. You can set the sensitivity for each pad, but it's with the buttons and hard to adjust in the middle of a tune.
+Die Master Monkey (Die, Master Monkey) I bought one ages ago.. I would say it is 95% consistent. Every once in a blue moon a bit won't register simultaneously. It's held up through 50ish shows this year.
Hola si la compraste ?? Para que tipo de música ?? Actualmente ando viendo si la compro para musica grupera, cencerros y congas más que nada, en los videos suena bien.
Paul Thomson yes, I don't think it has timpani, but you can tune each individual pad. My problem is you can't save your voices, well you can save one, but if you have another song that you need different sound choices, you have to re assign... ugh!
Yes. Each pad has a pitch adjustment. I think you can ultimately get four pitches within a single octave. Each pad can go up or down several steps from the default note.

Thanks for doing some rolls on those pads! Watched a lot of videos to see how the ghost notes would turn out. I’m impressed, good demo!
Ty for posting this. This seems perfect for loop artists/solo musicians.

yes, i agree with everything you said...i have one also
4 years later, Is it still going?

You mean the car?
Hahahaha at 2:00 minutes into the video a small black screw falls out of the KAT MultiPad.................
Wtf lol
Haha! Oh my god, I didn't see it first!
Haha. That's most likely one of the 4 screws for the stand mount bracket.
+Patrick M Video is actually an Alesis ad. :)
i.e. the viewer walks away with the impression "buy the Alesis."

What does making scenes mean?

It has a hi-hat pedal input that should work for that.
Can you connect this pad to an electric drumset?

What is the stand that you're using in this video? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!
Hola amigo, sólo ka conectas al amplificador y ya suena? O tienes que usar algún módulo?
Me gustó mucho suena parecido a la percusion del korg pa 50
Steve how r u my brother ? I have a question dose the pad have a 0 to 127 velocity range ?
for a 5 piece drum set (just the drum sounds)
i would pick numbers:
2 for kick drum
5 for snare drum
10 and 22 for toms (couldn't find floor tom sound)
hi thanks but what would the values be for the tuning,reverb,panning and sensitivity?
also which number for hi-hat?
Can you set all the pads to the same sound?
Thanks for posting OP - hey what do people think of it for $100 which is what it's going for nowadays. Compare to that new 4-pad Samplepad that reportedly cross-talks like a mutha.
If you wanted to, can you store and save your samples or songs?
something like this should clearly have more tom-toms and cymbals -
its cheap...the cheapest in the market...
Está muy bueno los sonidos de ése pad.
Can these be played with your hands? My drummer has retired to a cajon and wants to supplement with some digital hand controlled or foot trigger cymbals. Is there a sensitivity dial?
Yes, it can be played with your hands. There is no sensitivity dial. You can set the sensitivity for each pad, but it's with the buttons and hard to adjust in the middle of a tune.
so many without sounds when hit?
Does it have ability to loop?
Does anyone know if you can record a loop?
no recording
how did you set it up to record it onto the video?
How was the crosstalk cancellation? Were you able to consistently trigger two pads simultaneously?
+The Roarer Yes I'm dying to know too!
+Die Master Monkey (Die, Master Monkey) I bought one ages ago.. I would say it is 95% consistent. Every once in a blue moon a bit won't register simultaneously. It's held up through 50ish shows this year.
why woudl I want to play a bass drum with my bare hand?!
Are you using reverb?
toco solo 1/4 y los otros 3/4 ?????
Anybody know if its polyphonic?
What kind of floor stand you use to mount it?
Snare drum stand
Hola, compre este KAT pero solo trae 4 sonidos, como haces para tener tantos sonidos en tu paf?
50 sonidos
कितना मूल्य है जी इसका, व नाम क्या है इसका?
helpful
Alguien me podría responder cuanto cuesta está percusión en pesos mexicanos???
Se los voy agradecer muchísimo ya que estoy muy interesado
Hola si la compraste ?? Para que tipo de música ?? Actualmente ando viendo si la compro para musica grupera, cencerros y congas más que nada, en los videos suena bien.
handle SD memory card?
#40 ftw 😆
Bhai play to karo
are you able to loop rhythms on this?
no recording
ask sa PRICE
Does anyone know if the timpani is pitch adjustable? Could I set 4 different notes to the 4 pads?
Paul Thomson I think so but i'm not sure
Paul Thomson yes, I don't think it has timpani, but you can tune each individual pad. My problem is you can't save your voices, well you can save one, but if you have another song that you need different sound choices, you have to re assign... ugh!

Sirve ?
es barato, si tienes el dinero compra otro mejor, pero hay gente que no tiene dinero, como yo
Estou vendendo o meu quem quiser entra em contato comigo!!
So sad how a once mighty company who produced truly the best drum pad could now be reduced to this.
its cheap for people that cant afford anything lelse like me
May God bless you who stopped at this comment and your whole family, may you prosper in all areas
Rest three portions are useless ?? Really Stupidious demo...!!
One hi-hat and its electronic-based? Junk.
Sounds good. 😎👍
