When I was a beginner at playing drums and because I want to practice daily, I wanted to have my own drum set. However, I found out that there is a smaller version of the usual drum set, referred to as electronic drum set. So, I decided to buy myself with it since it only takes up a small space.
One of the electronic drum kits that I’ve purchased is the PAXCESS Electronic Drum Set Midi Drum Kit. Below are the kid’s electronic drum kit’s specs:
What’s Included in the Set
- 1 x Roll Up Drum
- 2 x Drum Sticks
- 1 x USB Cable
- 3.5mm Audio Cable
- 1 x User Manual
PAXCESS Electronic Drum Set Midi Drum Kit Review
It is a portable drum set that runs on electricity. Unlike the traditional drum set where you have to set it up, this electronic drum kit already has everything ready for me to play. All I need to do is just open it up from the package, plug it into the socket and I’m good to go.
This drum set comes with a snare, a crash, a Hi-Hats, a ride, 2 foot pedals for sounding up the Bass drum, 3 toms, 5 timbers, 3 rhythms and 8 demo songs
What makes this electric drum really amazing is that it comes with a rechargeable battery. That’s right! You can play this drum even if there is no electricity at all. I get to bring this mini drum set anywhere I want. My child can play it right at the spot if I feel there is a need to play some music. Furthermore, this electronic drum has a 2400mAh rechargeable battery. Your little drummer can play it for up to 10 hours each full charge.
There is an earphone jack. Attach your favorite set of headphones and you can play this drum set without disturbing the people around you. You can even play this in a church and not one person will be able to hear the sound except you.
There’s a high-quality built-in dual speaker that brings in astonishing bass effect. There is no need for you to connect this device to an external speaker.
It can be used to play games as it comes with a standard 5 pin midi out jack and a USB type midi out jack as well. So you get to connect the drum set to your computer and play games or make some music.

PAXCESS Electronic Drum Set Midi Drum Kit Features
There are so many amazing things that you’ll get from this electronic drum set. Before getting into the meat of things, here’s one that I really love! It’s small – it is smaller than the traditional drum set that I used to practice. There is no need for setting it up. All I need to do is turn on the electronic drum set, and I get to play right away.
Another thing that I love about this device is it is quiet. If you wish to practice without disturbing other people or if you want to do it during night time, I just grab a set of headphones, plug it into the headphone jack and practice my game as much as I want.
I just have one warning to you readers out there. This drum set doesn’t record the music you produce with it. There is no supporting feature for that. While in my case I don’t mind missing that option, for others that want to have this, you better find another electronic drum set.

Why are you calling this a MIDI drum kit? Does it have MIDI output from the USB port?
Good day, Ray! Yes, the PAXCESS Electronic Drum Set Midi Drum Kit features both 5-pin MIDI output and a USB MIDI output jack which users can connect to their DAW of choice. However, I’d like to reiterate that this is a beginner’s kit suitable for children. That’s why it lacks in terms of feel, quality, and sound in comparison with higher-end electronic drumkits.
