A drum trigger converts energy produced by stick attack into electrical impulses. The impulses are then supplied to the drum module (brain of the system) via cables.


The trigger can also be called a transducer. By definition, a transducer is "a device that is stimulated by power from one system and supplies power to second system - usually in another form".

it doesn't matter.When you hit the drum, it triggers the trigger :| A trigger is a preloaded midi file (i think its midi) so it doesn't matter what sound you make with the heads if your getting triggers.I think you should look at some triggers for your self


Is it possible to use an audio interface and recording software to convert audio signals from a piezo trigger into midi?

A piezo pickup on an instrument (such as a guitar) can be used to record the sound and some programs (such as Apple Logic Studio) can convert this to MIDI. Note that this only works for one note at a time. No chords or strumming. A piezo trigger on a drum isn't designed to record the sound. It sends a pulse to a drum trigger module to make the sound. Roland makes a standalone module -the TMC-6 that can take 6 triggers and convert them to MIDI.


How is the electric drum kit different from the acoustic drum kit?

In just about every way. Acoustic drums are just that, actual drums with drum shells, lugs, tension rods & hoops, and drum heads. The sound is produced by the vibration of the drum heads and drum shell. Electric (electronic) drums are really nothing more than a MIDI instrument with triggers shaped to look like drums and cymbals. The sounds are produced electronically. The sounds are triggered to play when one of the drum heads (triggers) are struck with the drum sticks. Think of the triggers themselves as fancy pushbuttons. A computer can also produce the same sounds using only the keyboard to trigger the sounds. In the end, electronic drums SOUND like real acoustic drums, but aren't actually drums themselves.
