Back to Product Information
Sound: Since it's a trigger, it obviously SHOULDN'T make a sound, so in that respect, it's pretty quiet. It retains sensitivity with soft beaters, so you are fine if you need it quieter. Feature: My only qualm is the size of the unit. It's big even when folded down, and I am a touring musician who flies to shows...so I wanted a tiny unit like a KD-7 as a kick sample trigger... but when I couldn't find one, I had to get this. It performs like a champ, but doesn't break down small enough. it needs another hinge or something, so it could fold up even smaller. Ease of Use: Plug and play! Value: It's cheaper than the drum-style mesh triggers, and worth every penny at full price. The Wow Factor: It's slightly lacking in the sex appeal department, and it wasn't my first choice, but I'm glad I got it. Overall: Roland are masters of electronic drums. They will continue to be my favorite!

Sound: took a while to figure out the sensitivity settings on my Yamaha DTX Feature: Not bad for the price Quality: Seems very sturdy and I use heavy wood beaters on a double kick! Value: Good deal for the price, almost a third of the higher end mesh triggers. Overall: I just practice on my electronic set and should be able to really bone up on my double bass chops.
