Hand-wired Drum triggers

Customer testimonials

The biggest perks of the drem trigger are it’s size and simplicity! When on a gig, to achieve something with the same possibilities would take a whole extra case to carry, 3-4 extra cables, and a stand. However, with drem trigger have a rim mount, being rechargeable, and being so compact, I can just throw it in my bag and bring one cable. Game Changer!

Caleb Roberts

The size and convenience of the unit, making it easy to add electronic elements to an acoustic kit without a huge device to carry or take up space.

Micheal Rafter

I love having the option to bring samples without the need to lug the spdsx. The response on the pads is great.

Corey Veit

Construction quality, reliability, flexibility.

Jesse Fox

Simple, versatile, with both a pad + trigger combo in a compact product. Worked great for drumming at church.

Matt Fried

Me and my team were ecstatic about DremTrigger when it was first announced many years ago. We had been craving a better trigger system than the current offerings and DremTrigger seemed to be the perfect fit for our needs. We jumped on it right away and when it arrived, it was incredible! We used it connected to a computer loaded with the ESX player in Logic to fire multiple velocity zones of a snare trigger live. Literally the addition of the DremTrigger was an incredible sonic enhancement and we still adore it to this day! The laser is incredibly accurate and never interfered with the drum head. We definitely want to see the success of DremTrigger and absolutely believe in the ongoing success of this product if it gets a little more support

Devan Bumstead

Portability, battery powered, very easy to use.

FAQs

For all of your commonly asked questions and curiosities.

What is DrēmTrigger?

DrēmTrigger is three products in one. First, it is a drum trigger so users can add extra audio layers to the sound of whatever they wanted. Second, it has two strikeable pads that can be used as MIDI pads or pre-programmed with one-shot sounds. Finally - onboard processor to store, manage and control your entire gig from.

How does it mount to the drum?

There is an included L-bracket that mounts right to the tension rod of any standard drum hoop on the market.

Do I need to change out the batteries?

No! There are no replaceable batteries. The unit will hold a charge for about 24 hours so once it's charged, it's good to last most gigs.

Why the contactless sensor?

We chose the contactless sensor route so the drum could fully breathe without being hindered by standard piezo-based triggers (which interfere with the drums resonance).

Can I use this with my SPD-SX?

Yes and No - Yes: you can hook both the SPD-SX and DrēmTrigger to a computer and both run them as MIDI devices. No: you cannot plug DrēmTrigger directly into the SPD-SX and use it like a standard drum trigger.

Can I user multiple DrēmTrigger's around the kit?

Yes, but it's not recommended. DrēmTrigger is a standalone device - having more than one DrēmTrigger may result in having several devices to manage throughout the set. We recommend sticking with just a single DrēmTrigger.

Does DrēmTrigger require software to use?

There are two modes to DrēmTrigger - Standalone & MIDI. In MIDI mode - DrēmTrigger plugs directly into a computer via a USB cable and remains connected to the computer. In standalone mode - DrēmTrigger can be pre-programmed with audio samples using our software (Launch). Once the devices has been loaded up with sounds, DrēmTrigger can be used without dependency on a computer.
