Great review! I recently converted one of my acoustic kits to an e-kit and used the Triggera V2's. And yes, I spend a lot of time adjusting the settings in my module. I have a Roland TD-12 Module and started from scratch, because all the "pre-settings" where pretty much useless. Luckily I found a lot of information about trigger settings on this channel and got it to work properly, fitting my needs. So, thank you for that! :)
Man! I missed it! I've been waiting for months & months for you to reach "65,000" subscribers. Congratulations Justin-🎊🎉🎊🌟🤘😃🤘🎊🎉 here's to another 65,000 subz
Thanks so much dude!
Nice vid my man! Hey 65 Drums on the threshold of 65K subscribers!! Ha ha!! Way to go Justin!! Stay strong and healthy brother!! 💪😎✌
Great video! I've been using Triggera for years with my Yamaha DTX502 . I guess I have the V2's. I'll stick with those as I'm not going to mess around with my vintage Tama's and they've been working fine all this time. I have the Intriggs, Bix's (for the bass drum), and the crash and splash. Anytime I've had an issue (piezo issue's on the cymbals) Vukan has provided excellent support.
Bruh you should get way more subscribers
Great video as always
Fresh content so soon!!! thank you again for entertaining us during these difficult times !! (Some one is going to show us a re wraping for drums ????)
Thanks Gregg :) hope to have more videos coming fairly soon. Got lots of time on my hands
Your results match mine. I'm using a few V2 triggers on my toms and even my kick and they work fine with a TD-25 module. I bought the V3 for a snare conversion, and the breather hole was way too small and close to the head, so I drilled a new hole altogether. I won't be using this as an acoustic snare again, so don't mind too much. As for the triggering, at this point I prefer center-mount cone triggers. I'd stick with using it on toms. Next time I'll try something different. That said, still using V2 on my toms with great success, and recommend them, I'd recommend the V3 for toms as well if you don't mind drilling.
I can personally recommend the Triggera stuff and UFO Drums triggers. I have the Triggera V2's and have excellent results on my Pearl Mimic Pro (and also when I had a Roland TD-50). I don't like the V3 design where you have to "put it together" yourself, although the air vent input is a nice touch. The V1/V2 design with everything already mounted is more appealing in my opinion. I lucked out on my kit, as I'm using the Pearl ePro shell pack which already has input jack built-in to the shell.
Great review, I totally concur with the difficulty installing this unit on a generic Taiwanese steel shelled Snare drum. I had to drill the air hole significantly to get the Jack mount thread through the shell. Then when I put the heads on, there was no clearance to get the Jack in past the hoop. So I had to take it off again and build up some clearance from the shell with some thick rubber washers. Then the wires fell out of the connection block during playing, so I had to reattach them and put latex glue in the connector holes to insulate and hold them from vibrations. Although it works well I must say I’ll go the Jobecky route for future conversions.
I bought 4 Intrigg V3's a month ago and two of them are broken now. The Piezo wires break very easily and customer service really sucked. Also a huge chunk of the lower cone was carved out for the wires that caused the cone to tilt when under pressure.
GoEdrum has a very similar diy trigger, I use it on my snare and have gotten really nice result from for under $30
You can heat up the wire insulation with a lighter then strip back what you need to with your thumbnail. I have proper wire strippers, but sometimes, with thinner wire, the lighter trick works better anyway. Thanks for the great work on your channel.
Hi Justin, France under containment here... Very interesting review, as usual. If I may ask, as I also own a TD30 running a diy triggered Tama Hyperdrive, what settings did you use to make this trigger perfectly work ? Thanks in advance.
They seem very nice for the price! Did you get a change to check out the Triggera Krigg? I’m debating on going the Krigg route for my a2e conversion.
Hello! Great, great videos. Thanks for these. Is it possible to give a hint about the pad settings in the module? I have problems with pad settings...
Great review! I'm using an EAD10 to trigger with a Remo Silent Stroke head on my kick, and it is damn near impossible to get consistent triggering. I have to hit insanely hard to trigger the kick sound. It works perfectly on normal acoustic heads. Even with the firmware update and messing with the settings I can't get it to work properly with mesh heads. I have triggers on my toms and snare (Roland and DDrum), but I'm using better heads on those drums (Real Feel by DrumTec), and they all work really well.
Should I upgrade my kick drum head to a drumtec one, or buy a kick trigger that will work better with the Silent Stroke mesh head? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Nice video! How would you compare this to the Helensson?
what module are you using? i LOVE this sound!
i wish i could have as good results as you were, i've been having to spend a lot of time on my drumit3 to get a good trigger result. i've had to line the inside my shells with studio foam to not get any double triggering, and no matter what i cannot achieve an isolated rim zone, and installation is definitely not the easiest, and on top of that one of my triggers broke within 20 minutes of playing it, the wire going to the head piezo snapped, there was hardly any tension on it. so far i'm kind of regretting them and wish i just tried something diy at this point.
I want these on acoustic shells and blend sounds together
Good review
Be healthy ^^
Hi. I would like to ask a few questions. I have bought an alesis strike AMP 12, and on the back it says something about GND and Contour, and i dont know what it is. The other question is that i've plugged my phone into the amp and try playing some music, it began to play the music, but it wasn't good quality, is that normal?
Sorry for my bad English writing.
You make good videos!
I personally haven't had a great experience with this. I haven't even tried the trigger yet. It's been just over a month since I've ordered and still haven't received it. Thankfully they respond extremely quick, but there's no update. It's been stuck at their postal office.
Would you recommend this trigger for your steel snare on a A2E kit along with a TD-17 module?
Hello Justin, can three pieces in one Snare be mounted (similar to the ATV-Snare) and the positional sensitivity works? I use Mimic Pro.
I just got one to turn my kit into an electronic one. Testing on the snare first before doing the rest. I'm stuck for now, can't figure out how to remove my airvent without damaging the shell. Would you mind explaining to me how you did that? Also, perhaps that's not the place but... Would you recommend these triggers for bass drum aswell or do you have a better idea?
Wow. The more I read about these, it appears I'm gonna be better off just making my own. I was about to order a set for my conversion kit, but I don't want to end up with a bunch of junk triggers in a matter of days. I need something more reliable and easily serviceable since I'll be taking my kit out on the road. My trigger quest continues I suppose!
Im gonna try the Convertible Percussion center mount trigger. Looks solid for not much money...
Can you share your settings? I purchased these after watching this video, but I can not get a good response using my TD-50. I originally tried the PDX-100, PD85, and other dual trigger settings, but it almost entirely triggered all head hits as rim hits!? Then I switched it to RT10s as they suggested, but the sensitivity is horrible even with threshold at zero.
I haven’t been able to find any videos on using these triggers with acoustic heads. Can you try it and let us know how well they work?
I recommend a second review after a couple months of use.i own 4 of these that i ordered in December.THERE IS A SERIOUS FLAW IN ITS DESIGN.
It is now April and 3 of the 4 have failed. The wires are too thin and crack off at the head piezo right between the 2 foam columns.the constant flexing because the piezo is not rigidly mounted causes the break.The glue they have installed does not help!the first failed back in February and I’m still waiting on the replacement to arrive.(likely due to shipping delays due to the pandemic). But since 2 more have failed exactly the same way, I have pretty much given up on them.
FYI . I must have been one of the first to try these because mine didn’t come with the quick connect. When I contacted Triggera I was told that it wasn’t included, although it was clearly pictured with the trigger kit.
Very disappointed.Not nice to have this happen during a gig, as it did.
Please update your review and let us know how they last, I guarantee the same will happen.
I did a Snare conversion 3 months ago and it looks like what you have described has happened to mine. All of a sudden the sensitivity disappeared from the head but the rimshots were still loud and clear, in fact, louder than they had been before. I couldn’t see any wire breakages but what you have described could be a possibility for the sudden problem I am experiencing. Such a shame as the triggering via a TD-20 into Superior Drummer is fantastic.
2 millimeters? You use the metric system? (I am from Europe, that caught me off guard :)
It's kinda complicated. In the USA we use a combination of the Imperial System and Metric. For example Coke/Pepsi comes in a 2 liter bottle. But milk comes in a 1 Gallon jug. For anything shorter than an inch, I use millimeters. I wish my country would just pick a system and stick with it. In school we are taught both systems and how to convert between them. It's annoying lol.
@@65Drums I've been using both for 40+ years lol
Hey, Justin. Thanks for your review. I just bought this trigger and I have to agree with you: it's way too complicated to install.
I had other issues with rim sensor (not working fine).
I'm considering returning it to Thomann and buying a Jobeky dual zone side trigger. It seems a more proven design.
How do you compare both? Which one do you prefer?
Thanks!
Jobeky side mounted triggers just work, and are so easy to install, I like them
@@65Drums Thanks. I will go with the Jobeky. My module doesn't have positional sensing, so I'm thinking about going with side mounted to avoid hotspot. What do you think? Any reason to choose center mounted trigger if my module doesn't have positional sensing? I will use it in the snare.
Side mounted works fine on drums 14" and smaller yes :) but use center mounted on floor toms. Because your stick can be literally 16" away from the sensor if it's side mounted
Yo man, could you make a video about stacking metal cymbals on top of rubber E cymbals? DonutDrums did this in his video "ULTIMATE ELECTRIC DRUM SET part 2". It seems like a really cool idea, and i want to try it but im not shure if it will work. I dont have any metal cymbals and I dont know if I should buy them to try this. I cant find anything about it on the internet. It would be awesome if you could make a video about it or just share your expirience about it here. Does it still trigger, do you keep 3 zones on your cymbal?
I bought a 5 piece set of those and they all broke (the cables detached from the triggers underneath the foam...basicaly imposible to fix) in less than a month. I personaly recomend the Jobeky Side triggers over those
I’m in the same boat. Two out of three broke already.
any pros compared to the jobeky side mounted trigger? that one is also inexpensive, has good triggering but its way easier to install
thanks for the video!
I'd like to know that too.
I got this trigger and have problems getting it to trigger good. What kind of mesh heads where you using? I have a Single ply head on a 16” floor tom. I have tried adjusting the height and the settings on my module meany times.
So which ones do you prefer? These or jobeky's?
What would be the best bass drum trigger?
anybody been mad enough to put 3 of these in one shell, and wire it up like how ATV wires the ATV aDrums or Roland with the VAD series?
Haha it’s weird seeing you play the high Tom and hear a snare 🤣
haha!
Can i use this trigger for bass drum?
I had the first version of these. All the wiring came loose within a week of use. I guess that is why they are doing more of this diy approach. The Kick triggers that mount to the pedals- well one lasted about a week and the other is still fine I had to replace the piezo in the first one.
Old video I know but I would like to know how do these compare to jobeky triggers?
I like Jobeky more
is there a damn centre trigger system out there that get s rid of hotspots?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?
65 drums has 65k subscribers
Hmm 🤔
Same issue with connection for me, but great so far, even triggering rim and rim shots. Hole was an issue too, but I managed to pull it off without wrecking the shell. The thickness and my hardware forced me to purchase longer bolts. There is a work around to make it work with positional sensing: ua-cam.com/video/rB1VslJnXjE/v-deo.html
hows the quarantine going boys
I feel like that when it comes to a trigger like this, you are better making your own as you would have to do just as much assembly for a DIY trigger and it would cost a little bit less. It also means you have more customisation if you wanted to have a bigger Piezo or a different bracket etc. I get why people buy these as you don't have to go for as much of a hunt to find things like the foam cones etc but I would just make my own and save a bit of money.
Just FYI, you don't need wire strippers if you have a lighter Lol
assembly threw me off not buying lol im scared
Now that lazy guy with the monster big edrum kit have no more excuses to not make a drum playthrough video. Yes, I have been waiting for like 3 years or so.
I am referring to the "blackbird" edrum video, yeah that big ass one
I wouldn't call him lazy, but I really wish he'd make a video of himself playing it to. I honestly think he's just self conscious about his playing. Internet haters can be soul crushing whether they think so or not.
@@65Drums Oh I am only calling him names (as a joke btw) because he is torturing me by making me wait so long. I love his drumset and have watched that video a 500 times by now, and I do understand that sometimes it just isn't possible to do something.
A man can only dream :(
Wow, two piezos, a bit of foam, a connector, an input jack, and some piece of metal. These pieces that have a combined value of less than 3 dollars.
Exactly. 39 euros for a $1.50 bracket, $0.50 worth of foam and a Piezo assembly (that you can get off Amazon with Jack) for $2.
I need to get into the eDrum business.
Jobeky is affordable , prebuilt and work very Well.
No need for DIY
I really like my Jobeky Trigger
I've done the video now: ua-cam.com/video/mYWvobX_uTI/v-deo.html
Thanks for the inspiration
