hey im just saying, all triggers do is make you look good
they wont help you get any better at all


U dumb shit. All they do is let you hear every stroke your producing.

Do you not understand that sentence?

Its fuckin easy.

You hit the bass drum. The trigger sends a signal to the module, the module produces a sound sent out through a PA system. This is called sound.

If you think you can play at 230-260 bpm and higher and still have the strokes be audible as somewhere around 180 your an idiot.

Thats all it does.

Its like a mic on steroids.

And yes they do help you get better because you hear every flammed stroke, every slowed down, sped up, or inaccurate stroke you make on the bass or snare or toms or whatever.


exactly. i dont even have triggers yet and i know more than that douche bag.

quick question does axis make a trigger? i thought i heard on here they did and its like TOP O' THE LINE but i cant find it on their website or musicians friend.


Yes they do actually its quite revolutionary. Instead of mounting a sensor on a bass drum or 2 you have these little black boxs that attach to your pedals. They have a hammer you mount on the axle that strikes a surface when your beater hits the head. I have 2 of em hooked up to me double x lngbrd pedal and they work amazing. Not to much false triggering not to much screw ups or pain in the ass breaking down and whatnot.

You can see what they look like if you go show us ur kits forum and look for mine under the bands gear and my mapex m birch or something like that i guess.

But i love em and would solidly recommend them to anyone. Seem like a hardcore long-lasting product to.

Eh. They're a lot better than regular bass triggs. Idk man its up to you. I play a lot of different genres so my bass drum isnt for aesthetics but more for when i need it.

I mean really when u trig the drum all your doing is using the head for a sensor no? Could use an electronic pad instead?

To each his own.

Okay,

So how is that for a mature, intellegent discussion on the subject of..........okay what was it?

If you want to trigger go for it! Triggering is sound reinforcment just like a microphone. The best way to describe it is a Grand Piano versus and electronic keyboard witha grand piano sound on it.
