Hey Samus. A question that isn't relevant to the triggers. Is the wideboard of the A21 is more/less convenient than the A longboard? I'm sure its a preference thing, but would be happy to hear your opinion. Thank you
I’m so glad you didn’t say which one that were the best, because just like you said, at the end of the day is it all about what works best for yourself. I’ve tried a few of those and have a favourite one, but i’m actually impressed that all of those worked for you! Great video Samus!
@@jessebowles5632 I heard different people telling that at the beginning, the contacts on FootBlaster's website were @pedaltrigger.com so I suppose it's the same people. Also someone remember of seeing a PedalTrigger prototype that was basically the footblaster, they never made it under the PedalTrigger name. Not a problem for me, I don't care so much until the product is good.
@@danielelewis9303 youre being stupid. Thats like saying Vic Firth and Vater are basically the same company because they sell Wood Drum sticks from New England Different company, same product, same area, so it must be the same company 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 what a clown
Hey 66Samus, the part of the video where you are playing just made my bass drum playing 200% better by just watching your feet. I finally got double strokes down properly. For some reason this particular angle of your feet and your technique sparked my brain somehow and I just went on my practice kit and could do it after a few minutes. I've watched several videos of people explaining double strokes but it never did it for me. Thanks!
The big plus with these is that you don’t need to stuff/over-tighten the bass drum so you can retain your mic’d kick sound and blend the two together 😎
I've never used the different style of triggers with acoustic pieces on my drum kit before so this is interesting for me. I do love playing drums but I've never been playing drums with triggers and this is worth an education.
Best trigger I've used is a Piezo stuck underneath the felt/rubber bit on Iron Cobra type beaters with double sided tape. Thin leads taped onto the beater shaft and wired to connectors. Total cost $5 each.
Yeah, I have one stuck under my Axis pedal, on foam, and struck by another piece of firm phone. Still need to see how it holds up but no issues so far.
Why did I...? I'm a bass player and I can't play the drums to save my life... What do I care? And I watched the whole thing... Even the Raid commercial...
@@jasonbuck5256 well... For myself I can say that I'm a gear whore and this might just be a symptom of that... 😅 I'm usually the one in the bands I play in with the most knowledge about gear... Guitar amps, drums, vocal mics etc...
I chose the cheap version of these triggers. I grabbed two piezo guitar pickups for $9 (piezo on a mono socket), two metal brackets and a bit of foam packaging material + double sided and foam tape. Basically because I wanted to trigger the two bass drum notes from my sexy, sweet SD3 sound libs! Until now I used the ATV 13" kick pad, which is still there to kick into. These system works surprisingly well. Really, its way more sensitive than the ATV pad, and so I got more re- and double triggers because of the bury beaters thing :-). I put a picture in my Community section. Thanks for that review!
Just purchased On-Trigger(was going for Footblasters 1st until someone recommended otherwise his reaction is also in this comment section XD). Happy you didn't made me regret my choice. Was not aware of the Precision Kicks, they seem pretty nice aswell ^^
I think the last one seemed the best, because 1) no hanging cable 2) easiest adjustment 3) velcro. But they all seemed so similar in functionality, that I would probably get the cheapest ones of the bunch :D
I've been using Precision Kicks for quite a while and beta tested models and guided development. Chris who makes them is a friend. Friend aside, these are awesome triggers, he really got beta units tested by a lot of drummers in Melbourne and came up with a great final product. OHH YUUUURRR!!!!!
Excellent review. Amazing bass drum technique... holy cow. I’d love to be able to play double kicks 1/5th as good as you sir. As for best trigger. They all appeared to play as good as each other, giving best settings adjusted for each one. The spare sensor would be a seller for me though! Cost and shipping to where the buyer is would also be a huge factor.
I bought the foot blasters and I found an issue that is probably common with all of them. And that's mainly anyone who plays uses a double pedal, if you bury your beater, it is possible to trigger the the buried pedal when kicking with the other. That's mainly dependent on the tightness of your bass drum head too.
Been watching your vids wishing there were more drummers like you near my hometown in Missouri. Been a metal guitarist for about 25 years and it's incredibly difficult, if not impossible to find decent drummers here. It's a bummer!
I'd have to go for OnTriggers. Mostly because of how easy it is to fix them and the fact that they don't cost that much. Also Alex Rudinger has his own custom OnTrigger that the cable strapped to the side of it, does make the trigger wider but gets the long cable out of the way.
Hey Samus, do a video that shows what the naked bass drums really sound like without triggers as compared to with, during double stroke vs single stroke blasting....
That kind of metalic tic tic system are pretty smart, so no double rebond with that im using a ddrum chrome elite plug on to yamaha electronic kicker with a Roland TM 6 pro, but the axis system could be interesting for me.
I had the precision kicks just over a year and one crapped out. No longer covered by warranty They offered a 50% discount for one and return shipping. The triggers feel cheap light plastic with thin wiring. The Velcro locks in nicely. If I could go back Id get the Axis ones. This message would have helped me before buying. I hope it helps you. Cheers!
I've owned all these types of triggers and the problem with pedalboard mounted triggers is that if your pedal setting slip or the trigger itself, then you're crawling on all fours trying to diagnose the issue. You'll be wondering where the misfires are coming from, i prefer my roland rim mounted trigger
I've thought of this too. Any change in beater angle or an uneven floor or riser would cause you to have to recalibrate it. That would really suck with the ones you have to bend, the others not quite so much.
they are usually, but these days for live shows where you have ~8 minute changeovers, fucking around with the head attachment and different bassdrum depths can be a nightmare.. or drummers who use the stupid sound deadening foam hoops around the bass drum head so you can't get your trigger on..
Good that you didn't cover pedaltrigger: they suck! Bad quality, rough finishing, no customer service and tons of dissatisfied customers. Mine broke within a few months, never received the promised replacement parts. Also sensitivity differs between triggers.

Brother, you have the most wicked pair of legs and feet. I have never in my life heard anyone play a 2 stroke drum roll on a kick or double kick. I was pretty fast until I lost my left leg . Well brother I hope you appreciate this message. Oh yeah, you are the craziest f----r I have heard. Please keep the videos coming. Being disabled I dont have alot to do. Once I heal up I'll get back at it. Sorry, one more thing. Have you seen the new base pedal where you can have a double stroke with I swipe of the pedal? I'm going to have to find out more about this if I ever want a double bar sound. My leg was removed above the knee. The Prosthesis I'll have will never be able to kick a base with it. If you feel the need message me back. Keep it real brother. PEACE
So I learned something about drums I didn't know. I'm not a drummer, I love drums, would love to learn but its pretty expensive and my neighbors would hate me (I know I could get an electronic set). I didn't know there was anything like drum triggers, I didn't know what they were so I had to look it up and watch an earlier video "how to trigger drums without triggers" to find out. While reading I was like (why would a metal drummer want to use these)? Then in the that was answered in the "how to trugger drums without triggers" video. Not to make your snare hits sound like a hand-clap (an example Widipedia gave...which is lame) but to enhance the sound. Not being a drummer I never though that drums had to be tuned, I guess if I put thought into it it would make sense, but never did. So if your drums aren't in tune, you can make them sound right, or more bassy or whatever. Now it makes sense, because sampling drums to sound like something different doesn't sound metal, it sounds hip-hop. Now the question I have (and not even knowing if this was a thing back then) is did Lars use triggers (or software) to make that crappy tom sound on St. Anger or did he tune his tom like that?
good vid on the various models :) i personally dont use the pedal-mounted triggers, i use the roland RT-30 series, purely as i have a variety of kits and pedals i use. but for those who stick with the one brand of pedal, all of these are good options! :)
Damn I actually wanted to see a video on pedal triggers haha was gonna get some for my trick dominatiors cause I recently got a double bass kit and sound guys hate double bass kits I guess
This is true lol. I've been playing my double bass kit since 09' and last year I became a sound guy as well 😂😂 ironic af. Only reason I can think that most sound guys would hate it is the consistency (or rather INconsistency) between both of the tunings. OR if it's a small venue, they might have limited channels on their board, so they rather not use a channel on something that feels "redundant". Cuz otherwise, it's not hard to just grab another mic, stand, and cable and hook'em up to a snake lol.
I mean you can remove the double sided tape from all of them and use velco instead... Can you do like a shootout? Like put all the triggers you have on at the same time or most of them, and then play the same part. Like put roland one on the head, ddrum chrome or red whichever you have or both, the axis ones on pedal the other axis ones that are on the back of the hanger, and maybe one or two of the other, so we can hear exactly how well they track for each part? Those aussie ones seem really cool but they are 3d printed from biodegradable plastic so I question how long they will last. The axis ones seem killer only they are sold out.
But do they all work just the same if you aren't wearing striped low cut socks? You might want to do another test but with slippers, combat boots and maybe some loafers just to be extra sure.
so looks like the e3 are not avaible anymore and also more than all the other triggers listed. The ones you didnt review the pedal triggerst seem to be the easiest to install/uninstall and dont require glue/tape/velcrow while also being cheaper with shipping to the US then all the brands listed. That said it attaches to the top of the cam area near the beater mount. I wonder if that added item would throw off the weight of the pedal at all? Foot blasters seem decent
Hi! Thank you for the video! I want to ask a question which is not shown in the video.We moved our double pedals to the gigs a lot. Normally the left pedal would fall down after take off the shaft. So would the pedal bend the trigger during travel that you have to adjust it before every gig?

Once I do acquire a drumset, those Precision Kicks will certainly come in handy. I dig the stealthy, compact look & the fact that it's velcro. 🙂👍
9:06 You could prob just buy velcro and use that with any of the other triggers as well. Instead of tape.
Been using the On Triggers for almost a year and LOVE them.
Hi, are you still using the OnTriggers and if so are they holding up and can they handle very high heel toe hits? Thanks Philip

Hi! Thank you for the video! I want to ask a question which is not shown in the video.We moved our double pedals to the gigs a lot. Normally the left pedal would fall down after take off the shaft. So would the pedal bend the trigger during travel that you have to adjust it before every gig?
Hi @66Samus ,
I was wondering if you can tell me what kind of cables are used to plug in the footblaster triggers, mine just arrived.
