Drum tec is a German company and I live only a few kilometers away. It's heaven for all e-drum fans.
for those prices, you could probably pick up complete drum pads/shells on the used market
Thanks Justin for always providing balanced reviews even when products are provided to you by the manufacturer. I feel I can trust your opinions.
Great review! Was thinking about getting groove dots. I saw on the Drumtec
website that lemon is making certain cymbals for them
Very cool. I do think when they release their new designs it would be my first choice for an a to e but until then I’m still happy with jobeky triggers.
I love your e-gear reviews. I find them most helpful. Thanks Justin for another great video.
Very good review Justin!! 🥁👍😀
Thanks Zax!
Hey, which module did you use with these triggers? And are they easy to set up? Thanks! Great channel, superb reviews and clips! 👍
Awesome, informative review as always sir. Wondering how good are those triggers for distinguishing head from rim. I have a PD-85 paired with the TD-50X, and the PD-85 is having issues distinguishing head from rim. I’ve already tried adjusting the sensitivity and all the other settings but no difference. So, now I’m seriously considering a third party option for an 8” pad. Thanks my brother
I sold my TD11KV and upgraded to DrumTec Diabolo shells with a Sonar Real Feel snare. Even playing on the older Diabolo's, there's no going back to a non-wood shell. They trigger perfectly using the Roland module, and they look great.
Thanks a lot for the inspiration. I converted my drums. They turned out great.
I just did too and really like it.
I think I will check out the new pro series at drum-tec HQ soon. I am very curious about the new trigger and if there is a difference to the old pro series.
How do you feel the jobeky 4-spoke trigger stacks up to this one? Is it worth paying almost 4 times more?
Hello buddy! Which drumtec new triggers do you recommend for 20" bass, 10", 12" toms and 14", 16" floor toms?
It would be nice if you could use any drum head with triggers besides mess etc. especially with toms .
Drum-Tec should sell a three-pack of Groove Dots along with a three-way splitter to connect them all together (wired in series) to one output connection to allow DIY conversions to perform like ATV, EFNOTE and Roland three-trigger designs. I did my own DIY with GoEdrum side mounts and Quartz Percussions triggers and it works amazingly well. Having a one-stop provider would have been my preferred option.
Shouldn't they be wired in parallel?
I made my own snare with a Convertible Percussion trigger. Works great with my td20 and VERY affordable compared to these.
When ordering my 3 ply realfeel heads, Drumtec recommended to not use side mounted triggers as they don’t work as well with those heads. Did you try the groove dot with both 2 and 3 ply heads and notice a substantial difference in sensitivity?
What do you think to Roland’s much anticipated new td02 line?
Side stick works with groove bar?
Interesting but way too pricey. I wonder how these compare to the new Jobeky 2.0 triggers
So, is the furthest e-cymbal from you your Ride, and the rest (other than the HiHats obviously) Crashes?
I’ve always like drum tec but that’s pricey for re doing 7toms 2 snares 2 bass drums
About those bracket slots, it's not just going to affect "international customers". It's going to affect any customer with drums that have larger lug screws. Drum-Tec should definitely provide brackets with slots that fit ALL drums - USA-made or not. Perhaps Sonor (their shell supplier) uses smaller lug screws?
Justin's drum shells are Sonor, so if that's the case they would fit.
@@BFedie518 Great point! I forgot about that.
Hey Justin you havent mentioned if the rimshots/rim clicks work well with these triggers
Yes it works as it should
Can the centre mounted triggers be used with regular heads instead of mesh heads? Or will it muffle the acoustic sound too much. I'm thinking from a live performance aspect to have best of both like you can with rim mounted triggers.
Here is the demo of groovebar & groovedot with acoustic heads: ua-cam.com/video/Doo_y4sU0ac/v-deo.html
@@MatdrumsTV thank you 🤘🏻
how about comparison them to jobeky triggers?)
yeah. i think it would be helpful
That is an expensive price tag. I also kinda feel like the design is a bit outdated as the three-piezo side-mounted triggers seem more optimal avoiding hot-spotting and getting good trigger response.
Drum-tec PRO 3 is more expensive than Roland's VAD series
Very likely that the screws are in centimeters instead of inches.
Yes, we use the metric system in Germany ✌
You could see it in the video. M5 does not fit. Yes, most likely it will be metric but fits only for M4 and smaller
I just converted my own kit. Total cost. £200.
200 euros is a really steap price to be honest.
Drumtec=German, Sonor= German. They should fit.
It doesn't matter if you add more cymbals or drums or even the quality sound , the thing is how you play the drums, skill and technique is the secret, enjoy while drumming and have fun
No way this gets pinned.
See the comments of the last video to no what I am talking about
I had the metric screw size problem installing internal triggers on my DW's. I bought a dremel to widen the slot. That was quite an expensive fix! But my question is do these work with acoustic heads as drum-tec claims? I'm setting up a hybrid kit and if that is the case I would prefer internal triggers to external. I have doubts that they would be easy to set up with mylar heads.
