The new DONNER ‘flagship’ mesh kit DED-200 Pro

GEAR REVIEW

Scott Holder from Digital Drummer has done a detailed review of the Donner DED-200 Pro from appearance, features, controls, performance and sound. 

Scott says:

“DONNER released a mesh-based drum kit in late 2019. At the time, the DED-200 made a splash in the budget e-kit world because of its price and the fact the snare, kick and toms were all mesh. The latest offering is the DED-200 Pro, “pro” being the key in differentiating the new release from the old.

The DED-200 Pro is available at two price points.  The other difference from the original DED-200 is a change from mesh to rubber for the kick and a significantly expanded module.”
