Will this work with a Diamond Electronic Drumset ?

Postby stickprick » Thu Jan 10, 2013 11:41 am

Hi,

i´ve got an E-Drum Set from Dave with Roland Cymbals and HH, will the Megadrum work well with these Pads ?
I read something about too hot Signals from these Triggers.

Kind regards

You`ll probably need resistors or pots added, to cool the signal down.
Other then that, I`m pretty sure they will work great once you set them in the MD.

Is not a problem,

the most of the pad need to cooled with voltage divider ;)

Roland Cymbal pad works very well, have been tested by several users ( also yamaha pad )

Thanks, I wasn't too concerned about the Roland Gear.

Won't the Voltage Dividers result in lower dynamics ?

No. In fact with too "hot" pads voltage dividers improve dynamics.
