Totally killer work all round. Loved the guitar parts and the drum arrangement is awesome! I have a DDrum Pro kick trigger and it's never been that reliable for me, so was thinking about switching to the Roland RT-10k to trigger my kick. Have you ever found it "misses" your hits when you play medium/fast double bass? I'm only getting 1/3 or 1/2 of my hits triggering with the DDrum Pro, but it sounds like every one of your kick hits triggered correctly in this recording? Thanks man, and keep up
@Zer0MT i don't know how the DDrum trigger works. But i think it's the same than the other. the problem comes from the drum module. What modul have you? you have to config it corecly. I take 2years to make it work perfectly. AND it's not Perfect as i expect. But it's not To bad :)
@MrSonor Yeah it takes a lot of configuration of the module, and I've been playing with mine for months now. I think the DDrum Pro moves slightly on the kick drum hoop as you hit it, because I can get it set up ok initially, and then it will start missing hits after I've been playing for a while. So that's why I've ordered an RT-10K - it looks more stable.
I have an Alesis D4 module. Not the greatest module in the world but it seems to do the job as far as samples are concerned. Thanks!
This may be kind of a stupid question but I'd like to know how you actually recorded the bassdrum trigger? Because I want to start using triggers myself but I don't have a clue on how to connect a drum module to a mixer to record the audio/midi-signal of the trigger -coming from the module- into my recording software so that it would be like recording two seperate bassdrum tracks (I have 2 bassdrums). Is that possible at all? Thanks in advance. Any answer would be helpful to me. Cheers man! :)
@DrummingWarrior The schematics is easy. You have two captor (one on each bassdrum) [Midi signal] plugged in drum module. Put the module output [audio signal] in your Presonus mixer (i looked in your channel to know what material you have) like a normal microphone without phantom alim(+48V). At this part (after the drum module output) it works like a basic microphone. It's an audio signal (Not Midi). because the drum module convert the midi signal coming from the trigger To an audio signal
@MrSonor I can't wait to upgrade my pedals. Im using the cheapo pdp pedals. They just feel heavy and clunky, but i figure after getting used to these i'll kick absolute ass with decent pedals XD. My beaters are plasticish and the impact is so loud when i record. Do the wood pedals help that out?
@mygenericusernamenow oh ok :) the wood beater are louder than plastic one. i record my album with the beater steel side :) it's easier to edit the double bass part. ;)
sorry for my very bad english. i hope my answer are understandable. ?
@CarloDRM Roland trigger are a bit extensive here in France ( +/- 60euros the trigger = 5toms 1snare 1kick = 420euros for the whole drum kit.) DDrum DDRS are more "low cost" like 25~30euros per trigger
But i don't know about the quality oh these DDrum trigger. A drummer friend use this trigger, but he use a ddrum 4SE drum module. Some times you can have compatibility problems. Before my Roland TD-9 module i had a Yamaha DTXPRESS III, and some problems to settle the sensitivity, like a lot of double hit. The kick trigger settle when you hit the snare or a tom... a lot of shit. So I think that you have to use the same mark for trigger and drum module.

@Zer0MT Yes, the RT10K Is very Stable, and not very expensive. I think you will have less problem now! Ask me if you have other question!
