Hi ppl
It's been a while since I contributed to this group. Well over a year
ago, Keith, you'll remember looking at my KP65 and working out that on
trigger it first gave a negative peak, and we concluded that the piezo
was wired up wrongly.
I bought another KP65, but the other one seemed OK and I never put it
on. Well now, pre-gig, I thought I'd try the new one, and that's
exactly the same.
So, probably, it wasn't the KP65 after all.
So my problem is still that I can sit and kick away as consistently as
I like, and sometimes it just misses a trigger.
What bass drum beater do people use? I managed to break mine and
bought a felt one, but I think I should be using something like a
leather ball, I guess the equivalent is one of those with plastic one
side and felt the other. Has anyone noticed any improvements or
preferences?
And settings? I played for the first time with the setting for
rejecting double hits, I think it's set to 3 (maybe). Setting it to 2
or 4 seemed to cause other problems so I put it back how it was. Is
there anything else I should be looking at?
All help appreciated.
Cheers
J
