Hi list
Anyone who has build drum triggers themselves ?
I just ordered some piezo transducers to build my own triggers, but
your experiences is most welcome regarding material used to
encapsulate transducers, rubber, foam rubber, how thick the size, and
so on.
I planned to build it up on some angel bracket inside the drum shell
and mount it on a lug screw so that the trigger will be placed
underneath the drumhead near the rim, don't know if thats good or
bad, and if a rim shoot would trigger too, of cause I don't want that
to happen on my snare, for which I plan to build a separate rim shoot
trigger too.
Hope someone will share their experiences :)
Cedric Roux has already pasted the link, but I've done some stuff like
this - I built a midi drum trigger that is capable of telling where
you've hit it as well as how hard, so you can morph the sound between
different spots on the pad. This uses 4 piezo sensors on an aluminium
sheet. All the details of how I built it and the software to drive it
are here:

ganglion.me still points there but won't do forever)
If you have any questions, just ask.

Thanks a lot, I'm looking at it, but actually I'm aiming for building a
trigger like the one's you can by at DDrum ect. and the trigger should
fit in at an acoustic drum without braking anything. I plan to use an
ordinary drum brain like Hydrogen and a midi trigger io.
