Hi, is the TD20 module fast enough to trigger MIDI? Does it experience any high latency in triggering?

[Toontrack]

Hi,

as far as I´m concerned, the TD20 is one of the most hi-end and reliable module's out there (and priced thereafter) when it comes to recording MIDI. A majority of the Toontrack MIDI grooves included in all our products are recorded through a TD20.

Having a sufficient computer and sound card setup is however also of great significance when it comes to latency.

/Martin, Toontrack

[zippolotto]

which module you use?

[Toontrack]

I believe it's a Hart Dynamic Pro with TD20 module.

i'm really digging that hi-hat ...seriously~

Best electronic hi-hat ever!

Does it feature 3-zones though?

[Toontrack]

The hihat is called ECII-12HH. It is dual triggered, according to Hart Dynamics website.

WWOOOOO Simply Amazing!!! I love SD2.0!!! Nir Z is a monter drummer! Great Tecnique!!!!!

[miguelita70]

Sounds so killer. I cannot wait to get the Allaire kit! Nir Z is a sick drummer!!

[HmedaTama]

Very strong drumming there amigo, I like your very much, my compliments!!! Where did u get the music part from if I may ask u my friend?

[colorblind101a]

Where are the mics? I thought this was a performance piece, FAKE

ಠ_ಠ ;)

[LowDeath23]

Looks like you stole those drums

[cast390]

@b3nnj1 You probably know all about the TD20 since you posted this question but I just bought a TD20 and Im triggering superior 2.0.I was using a TD8 before.I can tell you there is a huge difference in the triggering sensitivity,dynamics and expression.The TD8 doesn't even come close to the TD20's triggering capability.The down side was the cost.Even tho I bought it just to trigger drum libraries,The internal sounds are not that bad.And theres no machine gun effect on snare buzz.Hope this helps

[djmark7]

So would one hafta get something like the TD20 in order to use Toontracks? Currently I have a Hart Dynamics kit I've never used but can't afford to shell out a grand or so for the TD-20 AND then Toontracks. If there are alternatives please let me know!

SD2 is amazing, but it no way getting around the latency playing in real time.... the limitation lies in the midi-protocol itself. midi-spec is from 1983....The only way to zero latency and acoustic feel is an all in one kit using direct-to-sample triggering such as the 2box Drumit Five

Awesome and very convincing sound! Nir Z. is not only a killer drummer, but also way underrated. I have seen many vids - he did a fantastic job with Genesis live in the late 90s. I guess the fact that this was a bad call in general (not his fault!) might have hurt the career of this brilliant drummer. I wish him all the luck for the future! Perhaps a couple of gigs with Tower of Power? That'll be something else!

[Tuffnuttz892]

Nice playing.

[MikeL1969]

tasty

[ronnysoeberg]

Wow, that is some precise drumming. Most impressive. Flowing and still just absolutely perfect. Much cred.
