Chapter 6: External Triggering
50 DM5 Reference Manual
BASS DRUM
1 Mount the trigger directly on the impact head.
2 Place the trigger approximately 2-4 inches in from the rim, and level with the
beater.
3 Slightly reduce the sensitivity of the trigger if it has an adjustment.
SNARE DRUM
If you play with a fairly tight batter head, try this:
1 Mount the trigger on the batter head.
2 Place the trigger approximately one inch from the rim, on the opposite side of
the drum from the player.
3 Slightly reduce the sensitivity of the trigger if it has an adjustment.
If you play with a looser head, try this:
1 Firmly mount the trigger to the shell approximately one-half inch from the batter
rim.
2 Placement of the trigger should be on the players side of the drum, within a lug
or two of where the stick would hit if you played a rimshot.
3 Use a high sensitivity setting if the trigger has an adjustment.
SMALL TOMS 8"-13"
With smaller toms it is possible to get proper tracking using either head or shell
mounting. You will need to experiment with both to determine which will work best
in your situation.
For head mounting:
1 Mount the trigger so that it is within one and one-half inch from the batter rim.
2 Placement of the trigger should be on the players side of the drum, within a lug
or two of where the stick would hit if you played a rimshot. (In some cases the
opposite side of the drum, directly across from the player may work well).
3 Slightly reduce the sensitivity of the trigger if it has an adjustment.
For shell mounting:
1 Firmly mount the trigger to the shell so that it is approximately one inch from
the batter rim.
2 Placement of the trigger should be on the players side of the drum, within a lug
or two of where the stick would hit if you played a rimshot.
3 Use a mid to high sensitivity setting if the trigger has an adjustment.
