With their superb tracking ability, ddrum Triggers set a new standard of trigger mechanics. With
absolutely no adhesives required, the ddrum triggers clamp onto the sides of standard drum
hoops.The specially designed transducer is softly pressed against the drumhead. The advantages are
obvious; you can change drum heads over and over without damaging the transducer, the metal
casing protects the trigger from accidental drum hits and the ultra-light pressure of the transducer
against the head prevents any "damping" effect.Features: * Playing Dynamics are recognized in a
"natural way", allowing for a realistic dynamic response across the entire drumhead (from the
center of the head to the rim) * Double triggering problems are reduced * The special design
trigger reduces cross talk problems. * Together with ddrum sound modules, cross talk and double
triggering are totally eliminated. No muffling is needed * Fits most types of molded hoops * No
adhesive is needed * Sturdy Construction * All parts interchangeableddrum Pro Acoustic
TriggersThe ddrum Acoustic Triggers come in three different models that fit standard drum rim hoops:
the Tom Tom Trigger, the Kick drum Trigger and a special Snare Trigger with a separate sensor for the
rim. The Snare Trigger can also be used on Toms. The ddrum Acoustic Triggers feature a very sturdy
mechanical housing and can be mounted anywhere around the hoop. The ddrum Acoustic Trigger
features an XLR jack for safe connection to the sound module.
