Mesh drum heads with ddrum tiggers...

[Joshua Wickman]

Anyone ever try the mesh drum heads and use ddrum pro triggers with them?

How did it work out?

Also has anyone tried Percussion Plus mesh heads and whats your thoughts?

It worked ok when I tried it out a few years back, just need to tweak the heads with tape sometimes, and depending on your drummer, there could be a significant learning curve, feel-wise. The other difficulty was the kick drums, but you can actually get specialized silent heads for this purpose....a bit more expensive, but I think it would be worth it, especially for durability in the long run.

Yeah, I had to use a LOT of muffling to prevent double triggering since the mesh heads require more gain. (That was with a DM5, never tried it straight in w/ aptrigga)

If you do get misfiring and double to quad triggering, there is a very simple fix. First off let me ask, are you using it on a snare, and if so, are you using mesh heads? If yes to all of these, and you are getting a crap tone of false triggering you can stick a pillow in and set your velocity curve to about a 2-3 it will eliminate basically all of it, while still keeping a good sensitivity, make sure to tighten your head lot as well. Hope this helps.
