Mounting The Drum Trigger
Set up your drums, making sure that any trigger-mounted drum is NOT in contact with another
drum or stand. Vibrations transmitted from such direct contact can cause unwanted triggering.
Make sure the snare drum is secure in its stand.
Muffling (muting) of the drums can help reduce excess vibrations of the drum trigger, which will
improve triggering accuracy.
We recommend using a conventional bass drum mute or blanket pressing against the head. For
the snare drum, use a ring muffler with the area where the sensor touches the head cut out as
shown in the diagram below.
Correct setting of the percussion sound module’s trigger parameters will ensure the best dynamic
response.
Vibrations from other drums being played or drum resonance can cause sounds to be triggered
accidently. Spacing the drums a bit farther apart, placing them on separate stands, muffling, and/
or changing the tuning can improve trigger response.
If after doing any of those suggested procedures you still have problems, re-adjust the trigger
parameters (p. 14).
Loud sounds from monitor speakers can also cause unwanted triggering. Change the angle of the
speakers or move them further away from the drum kit. If unwanted triggering continues, re-
adjust the trigger parameters (p. 14).
