Re: ddrum4

Pete,
Here's what I know about ddrum and crosstalk. A few years back, K&K 
sound invented a device called the 'Trigmaster.' It is a device that 
can tell the difference between an actual drum stick strike, and any 
other vibration. When I used acoustic drums with ddrum triggers, the 
trigmaster was able to filter virtually all extraneous vibrations. I 
could trigger without muffling the drum heads at all. This is amazing. 
The story goes, that at a trade show, a ddrum rep saw the K&K 
trigmaster, and stole the idea. It is now incorporated into all ddrum 
modules, thus eliminating a crosstalk setting.
If you are triggering acoustic drums, I strongly reccomend the 
Trigmaster.
Scott
