@JohnXChapman This, my friends, is an example of a moron who has no idea what he's talking about!
Triggers are piezo switches that pick up vibrations off the head and sends the signal out through a drum brain, it plays a sample every time it picks up a vibration depending on it's set sensitivity, and evens out the softest/hardest hits depending on what the user wants.
A trigger is not a miracle cheating device to achieve faster double bass, nor can it give your heads a clear sound. -____-
@JohnXChapman your a friggin shitty guitar player who has no idea what triggers are if you think thats what they do...how about you go look at joey jordisons drum solos from slipknot...if he didn't use triggers he wouldn't be able to go as fast because the trigger plays back the sound that you yjust made on those drums and thats why it sounds like he is playing so fast but his hands are moving like slowly...you retarded
you are nailing the technical parts!!! nailing them! and the little bit of criticism i do have for it could just be you not being able to hear the details through your earbuds. but just some of the nuance in the feel department is a little lacking. but really good. i'm very jealous!
I don't like triggers. Haha everyone says they are cheating and the best drummers don't need them. I completely disagree, I just don't like the sound xD
@DailyCrucifixion you can program diffrent sounds,, mine actually sounds like a bass. but there more to actually hear when u go like 180-infinity it makes it sound better
@KrackenCanDrum Thats pretty sweet. The other thing I don't really like is the fact that you lose dynamic. But I suppose that if you were in a tech metal or death metal that wouldn't mater as much
@dannyplaysdrums93 I concur good sir. I'll admit, I used to think triggers were cheating as well. And then I talked to a drummer about it :P he bitched me out for thinking they were cheating lol
dude your fukin maddd good!!! check out my videos im not that good...only been playing for about a yr or so but hopin to get as good as you later on in life
Why do people hate on triggers so much? Im not a drummer by any stretch, but my understanding is that they still have to play the drums, they just use them to substitute the sound they get from their bass drum?
@ChristmasFireFly triggers make them have the same volume for any hit. so when theyre playing fast the dont have to be able to play as loud. just makes it easier to play faster stuff
@meZZZZZZZy Oh, now I understand. I can see why people hate on them, it makes it easier, and god knows people hate it if someone makes something they are doing easier haha.
@ChristmasFireFly haha well i mean its a pretty cheap way to be able to play fast for some people. its a lot harder to be able to play fast and loud at the same time
@meZZZZZZZy thats not the point of triggers though . once you get up to a certain speed with a mic it just sounds gross cause a mic cant pick up each individual hit plus most really good drummers that use triggers play just as hard when they play fast . not trying to start shit but you just sound like another person who thinks triggers are cheating which they are in one case withh a new pedal that came out lol so stupid
@regiershow play fast with triggers doesnt sound any better imo. then it just starts sounding like blended clicks instead. im not hating on triggers, i dont think theres anything wrong with using them. i was just telling the other guy what they were used for
Hey there ive started my channel on youtube doing some drum covers and things... if u think u might like the sound of that check it out ... thanks man .. sorry if not ..
just saying i thought holy shit theres another guy on youtube as good as drummer4life657 then i went to sub this guy then it said i already had legends must be true u are the best drummer ive ever seen
D00d... really ... trigers at that point ? seriously when you're doing quads I can hear clearly that it's not tight , you should try one cover without trigers and see what happen , I'm sure that we will be less aware of your errors and the sound is gonna be more natural than that click sound... and maybe you don't care but the intro isn't as shown on the "Matt greiner playing live" videos it's a little more difficult listen carefully to the song :P
@ComputerDownloads I mean that you can adjust the level of "clickety" in the sound of your triggers , and he really put to much in his , and yes I know what triggers are , it's bass drum amplifier yo every hit , loud or not is the same force and sound .... that's what I mean by that
at first i thought this was gonna be pretty crappy.... BUT ACTUALLY, it was probably one of the best covers i've seen in a long time. Well done. (This coming from a drummer). Other than a few timing errors, it was just fine.
Awesome cover, but do you naturally play open hand, cause whenever you're using the hat and snare at the same time you play open hand. Not criticism, just observation, but it looks a little weird.
@Santoss815 you sir are a fucking idiot this song isnt fast at all to be played with triggers, Go hide back under your bridge troll. He's using them to make the bass drum have more attack.
@TheDrummingMexican96 well it does kinda. For one, it picks up sound better, so you can litterally tap the drum and you can still get a full sound. It sort of a way to cheat on the bass drum.
people need to lay off the critisism, not the best cover or choice of equipment and techniques but its a good effort, very listenable, thumbs up for trying something played by matt in all fairness
@TrSYeTi he duznt trigger his whole kit dipshit, he might trigger his bass but thats it, those are mics on the drums not triggers, they are for recording
@Underscore2112 dude, I'm like 90% sure that they're pdp. cause dw makes pdp and this sure looks ALOT like the x7s look at the photos and tell me what you think
actually the only thing i see he could improve on for the sake of the video would be to give it a better camera angle. but i loved the playing, solid cover man =)
@godjesusmoses Learn heels up and heels down, dont lift your whole legs, and when you practice on the floor, practice lifting your heels with your entire leg, not just your toes.
@godjesusmoses yeah man...just keep going until you can hardly get up and walk around. if you own a tread mill or run alot it also helps to run on your toes..
