Drum triggers are used to help convert an acoustic drum kit into an electronic drum kit. Simply clip a trigger to each drum, connect them to your existing electronic drum kit brain and you can trigger the electronic sounds by hitting your acoustic kit - cool!
Most triggers are based on a piezo style sensor and are very sensitive, accurately tracking and sensing subtle velocities, ghost notes and rolls. The best thing about most triggers is that they are compatible across manufacturers. For example, you can use a set of Roland triggers with a Yamaha electronic kit. The most popular drum riggers available at Nevada Music are from Roland. They are sold individually and are supplied in three models; Kick drum, Snare and Toms.
