  • I have converted my Sonor Delite kit (in Birseye Amber) with Premier snare drum to electronic so that I can play at home without disturbing the neighbours.
    I converted my kick drum, snare drum, 3 mounted and 2 floor toms and replaced my cymbals with low volume electronic cymbals.
    This is part one, where I drill out the air vent grommet and install a 4-spoke Jobeky drum trigger to convert my premier snare drum.
    The converted drums connect to the drum module via 6.35mm (1/4 inch) stereo jack cables.
    jobekydrums.co...
    These cables plug in to 6.35mm jack sockets on small connecting cables. Obviously the jack sockets need to be the outside of the drum so you can plug them in. And the 3.5mm plugs on the other end of the cables connect to the triggers on the inside of the drums. So the connecting cables have to run to the inside the drums.
    There is a choice of external (mounted on a lug) or internal (mounted through the air vent) connecting cables.
    If you don't want to remove the air vent grommets, you can choose external cables: jobekydrums.co...
    but I wanted the neater solution using internal cables: jobekydrums.co...
    plus I didn't mind drilling out the air vents.
    If your air vent grommets unscrew and the air vents are already wide enough to accommodate the 6.35mm jack sockets, then no drilling is needed. You're lucky!

    Converting the other drums was basically the same.
    The 10" and 12" toms had 3-spoke Jobeky triggers. jobekydrums.co...
    The 18" floor tom had a custom made (for 18") Jobeky bar trigger. jobekydrums.co...
    The kick drum had a standard Jobeky kick trigger. jobekydrums.co...

      I think so maybe but I haven’t seen them. The vast majority are white
