Medeli Electronics MR101 Overview

The Medeli MR101S is a compact, no-nonsense rhythm machine built for musicians who want a portable drummer that delivers real musical feel. Whether you’re a solo performer adding energy to a live set, a student bored of a metronome, or a producer looking for a grab-and-go groove box, the MR101S packs expressive pads, deep pattern tools, and flexible connectivity into a lightweight unit you can take anywhere.

Dynamic, Expressive Pads with Real-Time Control
Sixteen touch-sensitive drum pads let you finger-drum with nuance and expression, lighting up with every hit for clear visual feedback. You can record rhythms directly from the pads, tweak patterns on the fly, and navigate modes via the bright 128×64 OLED display, which keeps everything clear even in dark rehearsal spaces. With 32-note polyphony, even your busiest patterns play back smoothly and accurately.
Your Personal Drummer
Explore 48 drum kits and 185 instruments, plus 100 preset rhythms covering rock, pop, jazz, electronic, world styles, and more. When it’s time to customize, you can create and save up to 100 user rhythms and build full songs with up to 800 bars per composition and 200 patterns per song. Swing control lets you add groove and human feel to both factory and user patterns, giving your beats natural movement.

The included foot pedal gives you hands-free control to trigger fills, start and stop playback, tap tempo, and play sounds—perfect for solo performers who need both hands on their instrument.

Portable, Play-Anywhere Design with Built-In Speakers
The MR101S is made for mobility. At just 1 lb and measuring 7.17 × 4.39 × 2.26", it slips easily into a gig bag. Power it via USB-C (5V) or four AA batteries, making it ideal for couch practice, jamming outdoors, or live performance, without needing an outlet.

Built-in stereo speakers let you hear your beats instantly—no headphones or amp required—while the volume, transport controls, fill buttons, rhythm select, kit select, and tap tempo are placed intuitively on the top panel for immediate access.

Studio-Ready Connectivity with USB-C Audio and MIDI
The MR101S slots effortlessly into a modern music workflow. Send and receive MIDI and audio over USB-C, connecting directly to your DAW, iPad, or creative apps for recording, sequencing, or syncing. Additional connections include a 3.5mm headphone output, 1/4” line output, and a dedicated pedal jack for expanded control.

Add reverb for extra depth, adjust tempo from 5 to 320 BPM with tap-tempo support, and refine every beat with the intuitive pattern-/song-editing system.
