@ikedrummer you can set the module for your triggers to make them more or less sensitive and you can also make it so you have to kick the drum hard to make a loud sound and lightly to make a light volume. the gain level on a module is the sensitivity of the trigger. the MVI changes the trigger so that if you set the MVI high to like 127 everytime no matter how hard you hit as long as the sensor's picking up the signal it will sound the same with a light or heavy hit. but low power changesvolume
triggers are a cheat in my opinion beacuse you hit it hard or soft it still makes the same amount of noise os your left foot or right foot if you are lefty does not have to work as hard
if triggers r used to enhance the beat of the double bass then how culd that be cheating it actually sounds better its almost the same as how much guitar gear is changing to enhance the sound of pick ups wen ur soloing like i like to use alot of delay wen i solo and i like reverb alot wen i do rhythm
It could be considered cheating because you can adjust the sensitivity on drum triggers so you dont have to hit as hard. Whereas reverb on a guitar just alters the sound not your playing style. Also, drum triggeres in a live situation usually replace the drum sound completely so essentially you could attach one to a bit of wood and it would work. It wouldn't work as well but you get my point.
Well you can miss out on alot of technique if you use short cuts. I'm not saying triggers are a bad thing but they can be used to assist your playing which is not what they were designed for.
Triggers don't do anything to the sound of the drum what so ever. Unless your using them to trigger a noise gate or compression rack (which its rarely used for in a live situation). If you use triggers with a drum module you are replacing the drums sound with an artificial one. It does this by detecting vibrations on a surface which then sends a signal to the drum module to "Trigger" a selected sound. You then route the module to a PA system and your away.
Electric Guitars work with pure audio. You amplify the sound detected by the pick ups which is created by the sting vibrations. You can alter the audio as much as you like (Distortion, Modulators, Flanges, Delay ect) but the origin of the sound is still coming from the strings. In the case of drum triggers those audio vibrations are transfered to digital information. Look up "MIDI" (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) in wikipedia and it will explain more. Also look up "Trigger Pad" there too.
Obviously you have to play tight but you don't have to play with proper technique. As long as your registering a vibration on that drum head it will trigger the sound. You can set the sensitivity very high so even small hits are registered. I know that I would rather learn to play the drums properly and have good form. Alot of drummers use it to clean up their bass drum sound and thats part of the problem. You need to work on the technique to keep your sound consistant not cover your mistakes.
LOL if your playing is not consistant it will be heard from a mile away since "You can set the sensitivity very high so even small hits are registered".
some drummers use it for cheating, yes, but those are the drummers that trigger everything, specially the snare because they do suck.
good drummers trigger the bass drum for articulation, it does't mean they cheat, anyway it's allready a great prowess to play at 260+ bpm an entire set, even if they're playing softly.
I totally agree with you there but surely being a drummer yourself, you know it is of high importance to get all your hits consistant. I am not just talking about rhythmically but in velocity too. You can be as tight as you like but if the velocity of your hits aren't consistant it sounds like shite. One way to combat that is to use a trigger to get all your drum hits to sound the same. I see this as being a massive cop out as you miss out on all the technique required to play the drum properly.
@riffeishonman the power you need to hit depends what setting are on the module you have. if the Gain is high and the MVI is all the way up you dont have to hit hard but if both are low you need to hit very hard with triggers
um, i'm actually not sure. Maybe, maybe not. I'm not the person to ask I just found out about them too and want to learn more. All I know is you need to hook them up to a drum module
you eitherneed to put em on the p.a. to hear them,or just any kind of speaker,or if you have a d.y. you can link it to a computer and put any sound you like on it
Triggers are great. A friend of mine uses a trigger with two separate outputs one is mixed with high treble "click" and the other is mixed with a low bass sound. It really evens out the sound and makes it full.
you can buy thin flimsy plastic rings that go around the inside of the snare and your toms. just find the size and go to a music store and im sure they will have them. they cover the space between the rim and the head and muffles the ringing and weird sound you get. so hopefully that helps you out
to say the triggering is cheating is both not true and miss leading. the trigger helps with note definition, registering an electronic sound instead of an acoustic sound. along with triggers metal drummers do use mics to fill the room out the click is just to define the note. i my self do not have triggers nore will i own them, but i know a lot of metal drummers in the industry and there concensus is now adays if your going to play metal and you dont have triggers get em.
i think its cheating because if you look have he are using them you can see that he is not using any technic, but he is still quickand he is not playing with heels up, which is wrong (or not the way its best to play) no offence
you obviously havent ever sat down and played a real drum kit. toe up is a much,much harder,more even way to play. all triggers do is make your drum kit sound amazing.. every metal band in history has used triggers on at least the bass... hes using a techniuqe. its called tight pedal tension,skill, and 2 bass drums....
triggers arnt cheating but it makes everything sound more controled...because he had no control whatsoever over what he was doing. it was really sloppy
they're just click pads. Their purpose is not only for sound but also protection from the beater busting the head, or putting dents in the head and causing them to tear. There only like a few bucks at GC.
I'm a guitarist, so I know nothing about drums- but surely if people say triggers are cheating then us guitarists would have to ditch our pickups because they amplify the sound electronically, just as triggers do...
the reson y some people say using trigers is "cheating" is becuse you can focus more on your speed then power plus you can tune the head soo the rebound is beter. u dont need to fuces on teh sound of the actual drum. if you mic it you need to find a balense betwen speed and volume and consistancy.
All of you a fucking retards and normally i wouldn't say that to anyone, But fuck people, He just told you what trigger's are, They don't make you play faster they don't make a click sound, They make it so you don't have to hit the bass drum so hard to get that nice crisp sound through your PA..
If you want the Good Click sound on your bass drum, buy Evans EMAD 2-ply batter head, Trust me. When u get one, leave the thin muffle ring in there, and tighten the head just enough for your fingers to not be able to tighten anymore. Not TIGHT!!! But Tighter is for speed.
what the fuck? HAH. no, triggers pick up the vibrations of the drum, send a message to the brain, and shoots out a pre-recorded bass drum sound through the PA. you're not hearing the real bass drum at all. didn't you watch the fucking video?
flattens the sound of the drum? wtf are u talking about? pillows muffle the sound if thats what u mean, triggers fire off to single out the beats you play so they sound more distinct.
hey man. the vid helps. i was wondering what did you call those impact pads again??? and where could i get some? i was also wondering if you can still hear the click if you don't have triggers and have the standard mic in the bass drum... thanks man
doesn't look like he's answering. but you get a harder hit with a standard mic, it's a little more of a "click" but Triggers are the things that make the "click" you're talking about. but i still have my beaters backwards without triggers anyway.
i can understand how people think triggers help you cheat because they take the vibration of the head thinking that if you play fast you play soft which is true but you are still playing fast even tho it is soft. so therefore you are playing 260 bpm (ex) but it's not loud so triggers make everything the same volume that's all. I like them.
'If drum triggers are cheating then so is using mics on your set or using distortion on your guitar'... Are you fucking kidding me?
Using distortion or mics, directly uses the sound you make from the instrument itself and changes/amplifies sound waves, the waves that YOU created right then and there.
Triggers, use PRE RECORDED SOUND BYTES that have NOTHING to do with the sound that you create with the instrument live. Its like using a sampler or electronic kit. They are no longer drums.
Finally someone who proves my point. TRIGGERS DO NOT SPEED UP YOUR DOUBLE BASS, it simply fuckin changes the bass sound into a gunshot-ish sound. Triggers has got NOTHING to do with the speed of the drums.
When you use triggers, you stop putting forth the normal effort that you would normally focus into getting even-sounding beats. So with triggers, you can stop using the muscles in your thighs, and instead use your toes and ankles to squirm your way to quickness, "half-assing" each beat. I'm not saying this is the only way to achieve great pedal speed, but it is a way, and there are drummers who do that, so stop acting like it's some ridiculous myth.
It's definitely cheating to raise the volume of the drum attack...essentially you can be playing death metal without using any force...basically playing softly and creating a uniform sound.. I was well aware of these, but I just wanted to clear this up. It's definitely cheating because it minimizes the effort required to play at full volume.
Who gives a shit...do you know how shitty acoustic drums sound when you're hitting 200 BPM and up? I love my triggers. You can put your show in the shit hole all you want; I'll let people enjoy the cleanliness of sound at mine
I dont think you've ever played a full death metal set. im not talking about the kit. i mean performance wise. do you know how hard it is to do that, playing any style, death metal none the less. it takes alot out of you, triggers just help you, cause by the end of the set its hard to play the same as you did by the second or third song. triggers just insure that you dont have to play as hard, but you wont be lacking in sound quality either.
To me you cant really cheat in music, you do what ever you can to produce the sound you want, I love triggers and they make music sound amazing especially metal drivin with double bass!
you are a "tap" bass drum player thats why you need triggers. take off the triggers and learn how to hammer the notes out. also I bet you quantize your drum parts when you record dont you?
I understand its hard to play over 215BPM without triggers but at least try and remember no tapping
Very often when drummers do double bass fast they don´t keep the beat.. very often they slow down or speed up if you compare with the hihat/ride for example. It´s too fast for themselves.. My personal recommendation is Don´t play over you own ability, it sounds much better if you stay slower but in control. (Sorry my bad english) I´m from sweden.. :P

its obvice that they make you go faster because if youll play on a bass drum without triggers it would be tapping you can really fast if you tap.

i can understand how people think triggers help you cheat because they take the vibration of the head thinking that if you play fast you play soft which is true but you are still playing fast even tho it is soft. so therefore you are playing 260 bpm (ex) but it's not loud so triggers make everything the same volume that's all. I like them.

awesomeopossum69 3 years ago

'If drum triggers are cheating then so is using mics on your set or using distortion on your guitar'... Are you fucking kidding me?
Using distortion or mics, directly uses the sound you make from the instrument itself and changes/amplifies sound waves, the waves that YOU created right then and there.
Triggers, use PRE RECORDED SOUND BYTES that have NOTHING to do with the sound that you create with the instrument live. Its like using a sampler or electronic kit. They are no longer drums.

Finally someone who proves my point. TRIGGERS DO NOT SPEED UP YOUR DOUBLE BASS, it simply fuckin changes the bass sound into a gunshot-ish sound. Triggers has got NOTHING to do with the speed of the drums.

Don't you get tired of idiots?

When you use triggers, you stop putting forth the normal effort that you would normally focus into getting even-sounding beats. So with triggers, you can stop using the muscles in your thighs, and instead use your toes and ankles to squirm your way to quickness, "half-assing" each beat. I'm not saying this is the only way to achieve great pedal speed, but it is a way, and there are drummers who do that, so stop acting like it's some ridiculous myth.

It's definitely cheating to raise the volume of the drum attack...essentially you can be playing death metal without using any force...basically playing softly and creating a uniform sound.. I was well aware of these, but I just wanted to clear this up. It's definitely cheating because it minimizes the effort required to play at full volume.

Who gives a shit...do you know how shitty acoustic drums sound when you're hitting 200 BPM and up? I love my triggers. You can put your show in the shit hole all you want; I'll let people enjoy the cleanliness of sound at mine

i agree
if drum triggers are cheating then so is using mics on your set
or using distortion on your guitar for crying out loud
korman9100 3 years ago 2
..what? no. using mics just amps the sound YOU are making, triggers aren't the real drum you're hearing
TitsMcAssh0le 3 years ago
I dont think you've ever played a full death metal set. im not talking about the kit. i mean performance wise. do you know how hard it is to do that, playing any style, death metal none the less. it takes alot out of you, triggers just help you, cause by the end of the set its hard to play the same as you did by the second or third song. triggers just insure that you dont have to play as hard, but you wont be lacking in sound quality either.

To me you cant really cheat in music, you do what ever you can to produce the sound you want, I love triggers and they make music sound amazing especially metal drivin with double bass!
JorJor812 3 years ago 2
LOL !!!!
you are a "tap" bass drum player thats why you need triggers. take off the triggers and learn how to hammer the notes out. also I bet you quantize your drum parts when you record dont you?
I understand its hard to play over 215BPM without triggers but at least try and remember no tapping
LOL

Why do you have a pinstripe batter on the right bass drum, and a powerstroke batter on the left? Never seen that before.
And are the iron cobra beaters supposed to be used like that? :S
I don't mean to critisize you, I just thought that it was a little weird..

Very often when drummers do double bass fast they don´t keep the beat.. very often they slow down or speed up if you compare with the hihat/ride for example. It´s too fast for themselves.. My personal recommendation is Don´t play over you own ability, it sounds much better if you stay slower but in control. (Sorry my bad english) I´m from sweden.. :P
