True, but a drummer that good should be thinking about diversifying if they're planning on doing it for the long haul. Dave Lombardo is the model I'm half referring to. Also Mick Harris from Napalm Death who went on to do a projects involving Bootsy Collins and now does ambient last time I checked.

trigger or not this is clean and accurate

@isaaclupien1904 8 жыл бұрын

Triggers don't make anyone play more "accurately" or evenly. Simply what they do is act like a microphone except they react when they sense vibration, once the vibration is picked up, it is sent to the drum module for whatever sound you're putting out of it. The only thing that can make anyone play more accurate is practice. Not triggers, I wish people who thought the same way about triggers as you do got behind a triggered kit and experienced what it's like, same shit as playing normal drums, just amplified with triggers.

@SlaysTheDay 7 жыл бұрын

Dude, look at my picture, what am i playing? A triggered kit. I have a Roland TD-9.

I notice if you watch his feet at 1:33 he kept playing double bass even though in the audio the double bass stopped for like a second, and also the fast double bass parts in the video he looked more like he was playing 16th note triplets instead of 16th notes single strokes, and he was also getting a pretty high beater swing at 297 bpm which is extremely hard to almost impossible at that speed. just to let you guys know I'm not hating on Aaron, he's a huge inspiration and i do believe he can play that fast. but in my opinion the audio you hear are programed drums so that it sounds like he's playing really tight

Triggers are used on ACOUSTIC kick pads to make the sound of each hit more even and louder/quieter at the users' discretion. They have no effect on speed, and would do nothing to and (probably not even clip onto) an electric kit.

@RevolutionInsignia 7 жыл бұрын

Triggers are basically amps for drums. They make sounds that are acoustically impossible. The purpose of triggers is to make each stroke on the drum the same volume no matter the power of the actual stroke. Let me explain it this way: the faster you go on the pedals, the less power you're putting into them, that happens naturally. So to play at 300 and up at 16th notes, you're gonna need a shit ton of speed, thus less power. Acoustically (mind you, some electric kits come triggered by default) the sound you're gonna get will be far too quiet to hear because there is literally no power. Add to the fact that Kitcher uses direct drive pedals, that's literally an auditory impossibility. Triggers make the strokes that would be too quiet, louder so that they sound powerful. Personally, I dislike triggers, but it doesn't mean the one using them doesn't have skill. His hands are still insane.

Guillaume Grandadam Triggers don't make you play faster, they make the volume level more "equal" and allow the sound of each hit to be heard more clearly. People shit on triggers a lot but really they're pretty hard to play with since if you miss a hit or put an extra in, EVERYBODY will hear it. If anything, the bounce from the E-Kit would make more difference than the triggers.
