Which drum triggers?

[Ermz]

Hey guys,

Ordering a Drum Dial right now, and wondering which set of drum triggers to get with it. Are the Drum Dial ones decent, just in case I can bundle the order?

Before you say it, no I'm not interested in making my own!

Thanks.

I've just bought 10 drum-dials....
they shit all over the ddrum pro I have

 

[Ermz]

Sold. Thanks Lasse.

Out of curiosity, where is a good place to buy them from? The Drum Dial site is trying to screw me on shipping fees humongously and I can't seem to find any eBay stores that sell both.

 

[crillemannen]

Yes, i would like to know that to

I'm buying them here:

Aren't the drum dials kind'a tiresome to mount/unmount?

I have only good things to say about roland triggers, ddrum.. not so much

YES!
although the double-sided tape method works great, you could also use them with your ddrums pros, that's what I'm gonna do, just replace the piece of shit transducers of the ddrum with these...should make the perfect combination

 

[crillemannen]

For that price im willing to try them. Cheers Lasse!!!

Are you saying that you need Ddrum trigger to?? Please elaborate

no, the drum dials come with two different ways to fix them to the drum:
1: double sided tape
2: thingies you screw onto the lug, much like ddrum red shot...both systems work.

I'm just thinking about combining the ddrum mounting things with the drum dial transducers

That's what I did!

 

[Lasse Lammert]

That's what I did!

yep, I'm gonna solder it directly to the XLR connector though

Wait, are the drum dials better then pros? I'm assuming so by all this chatter but why might I ask? My drummer just bought 4 ddrum pro toms.

yes, clearer signal, less x-talk...and above all THEY DONT FUCKING BREAK EVERY OTHER WEEK

Really? Well fuck.

 

[Trevoire520]

That's what I did!

I've begun buying drumdial triggers to do exactly that. Had to order them from the USA though and am ordering one at a time to save on import duty and VAT.

 

[crillemannen]

Ok cool, have to cancel my order from thomann then. I actually ordered Ddrum triggers yesterday haha

 

[JonWormwood]

What makes the dial triggers so much better? Different transducer?
