personally it doesn't make a difference when i mix whether it's midi data or not. a midi not is nice i guess, easy to quantize depending on the daw. personally, i'd just RATHER record the real drum sound because worst case scenario... i'll just replace the transients with samples. best case scenario, i get a GREAT snare or kick sound that i would have missed out on with triggers

Triggers are essential for just about any metal band.
When you try and play live in a band you will realize. Recording can be a bit different, but triggering isn't the source of all the lazy drumming its people who abuse triggering by fucking with their pedal tension

idk man triggering just the bass drum is alright, but the whole kit is just overkill imo

@Poz42 i have all the drumagog samples and they all sound like fucking SHIT...audix d6, low cut filter, mid cut, boost 3700-8000khz, then add a lil bass, and bam, should sound pretty epic check out my song on my channel don't forgive me father

how hard is it taking that kit to gigs ??

@damienro0 no prob man!

@guitarsbunch347 Dat was really useful man, thanks!!

@damienro0 triggering is an alternative way of recording drums. instead of actually capturing the sound of the drum with a microphone like you would a guitar or vocals, it just senses every time you hit the drum and it sends a midi signal to a drum machine or the computer and the drums sounds are created there... hope that helped

Pallets as acoustic diffusors??? Never saw something like this :)

Love me the KM84's. That far away, do you get more plosives from high hat air puffs?
WHY DON'T YOU JUST USE DRUM AGOG TO TRIGGER FROM YOUR RECORDED DRUMS SO HAVE HAVE BOTH? OR AT LEAST THE OPTION

@Poz42 Did that in the past. Bad rolls still get into the overheads. This way I was able to fix rolls with no overhead bleed. That was the idea. None of the tones in the view are on the album except snare in overheads.

It took me about 7mins+ to realise that you were the drummer for the band. Doh! hehe...
