Hi folks,
I've been thinking about using triggers on my acoustic bass drums to be able to tweak my sound better without mics and eqs etc. I am looking at an Alesis DM5 so that will amplify/process the signal. (This is a fairly common setup)
Just curious if triggers are just a dumb piezo or if there is more inside. They are priced at around 30-60 bucks a piece, plus they have a habit of stopping working after a while.
Would be great if I could just bust some out. I have metalworking abilities so I can make the casings no problem.
Thanks
