i have the TM2 and it's alright but like you said the signal strength or its built in preamp is very weak. I'm thinking of either getting a signal booster or just replacing the TM2 with the SPDSX because it has a stronger processor as well. I mean the TM2 works fine, but I think the SPDSX is the better module for death metal. It has the separate headphone jacks with individual volume control for the output and heaphones and you can load in your own samples and click tracks. Spencer Prewitt talks about it in a gear video
@beyondbetrayal6 жыл бұрын
What does genera of music have anything to do with why it would be better? Sure the SPDSX does more stuff, but I'm not paying 5X the price for a headphone knob. Sure it has a faster processor, but I have never had any lag issues with the TM-2. I can upload my own samples to the TM-2 as well. I only use one kick sample as well. If you needed more pads to do song intros and things like that the SPDSX might be a better choice as that is the only limiting factor on the TM-2 is the inputs/pads. Just turn the gain to plus 2 on the TM2 and that fixes the low output. also check my videos and I have one of the $60 mixer I bought. I run my inears in that and can adjust my kick volume without messing with the FOH volume.

Have you ever experienced the TM-2 not booting up properly? On mine, the screen will light up when I turn it on but the text won't appear. I'll have to unplug it and plug it back in and turn it on again from there. The other issue I've been having lately is when I split an input. Triggering the head/rim from two different sources independently but from the same input jack. Itll work but then it will wind up triggering both sounds from a single source. Totally sucks when all of a sudden your bass drum sound also has a splash cymbal sound!

It seems like the entire signal gets compressed like crazy, so the loud attack gets squashed, and the sustain gets boosted. So even though it's a sound that has veeery slight hall on it, the hall gets way louder than it should be... I thought it'd be the curve setting but it didn't seem to change anything. Any ideas?

I'm a rather hard hitting/kicker, and Everytime I'm doing double bass (2 bass drums) my left trigger will produce a snare pang (like Saint Anger🤮) whenever it maxes out the velocity from me hitting too hard, whereas if I hit just as hard as with right it won't max out the velocity, and will produce a kick sample. The left produces kick sample sounds, but if I hit to hard it'll throw in that snare pang to throw me off🙄 Any help would be much appreciated! 🙏🤘

Thanks!
@beyondbetrayal Жыл бұрын
Make sure the kick drum has blankets etc to stop extra vibrations. Make sure the snare isn't right over the trigger, even slightly offest, .like 1 or 2 oclock might help you. if you put it on the side one pedal will get picked up more..... Make sure you are hitting the kick drum hard enough you don't need to crank the sensitivity to a million. It is a bit of a balancing act, If the snare is setting it off you need to either stop those viberations from setting off the trigger, (moving trigger, stuffing drum with blankets, tighten head etc.) lower sensitivity, or increase threshold.... I find sometimes going to far on one (threshold/sensitivity) effects the other too... You should have to crank both or its counter intuitive. If the sensitivity is too high, things are going to register past the threshold level... so I set sensitivity first, then slowly increase threshold if needed.

The nice thing about socks is it is consistent, I actualy ripped for a while bare foot and didn't mind it either. I do have more power wearing shoes though. Do what feels right for you. I find in socks I have to dial my spring tension back and tune the batter head tighter. I get the rebound from the head more that way and don't have to work as hard for it without the added weight of the shoes.

yes you can. you can even select different samples for both if you wanted to get a splitter for different pads. You could attach 4 triggers this way.

I use 4 1/4 cables that splice into 2 cables, then the 2 go into both inputs on the tm-2 (one each for my toms, and 2 for my double bass,, u can program 4 drums into the 2 inputs, then the out goes into my behringer ucm, which has 8 inputs 3 of which are my snare mic and 2 overheads, then all that goes into my PC for full kit recording

@@beyondbetrayal I suppose it begs the question if you use them now with your AL-2's or if you use the ddrums. I saw you also pulled the trigger on getting that ACD driveshaft, I have definitely considered this because there is a bit of play in the UDS I got secondhand with my axis pedals but the cost of getting from Austria is a deterrent. ALSO I happy your vids are available again, I had looked for the a couple weeks ago and your channel was empty.

@@1234LED Oh ya, it was very temporary. I need to make a few new videos soon. Right now I'm using my Roland trigger. I had to make some adjustments to the axis triggers but I haven't had time to fully set them up. I may do that this week. I changed the placement and added a metal washer to the sides to prevent any slipping. the ACD shaft is rock solid and amazing. The shipping/cost to come to Canada was crazy but I had my UDS mess up at a show and ruin my day so I was pretty bitter and went for it. I had to switch my master/slave pedals as the keyed rod that the shaft connects to didn't line up nice. That's probibly why axis went with a round shaft. I'm going to tune up my kit and re-setup my pedals this week an think of a good video concept.

Does your tm-2 not have a "noise cancel" option? Mine does and I don't really get what it does haha.
@beyondbetrayal6 жыл бұрын
If you have the RT-30K, AND you have it set to Head and RIM, AND you are using a stereo cable, it will use the rim sensor to stop triggers from other drums. I have actually never used it, but it is a good way to maybe lower your threshold a touch and still avoid double triggers. Same as the other settings, too high and you will start to miss your quieter hits.
@chiefjeef92676 жыл бұрын
beyondbetrayal ah ok thanks, that's what I thought. My problem I've noticed is that when I play the snare really loud, it will miss one of my hits. So what I think is happening is the. Lose cancel activates because the snare hit is loud, and it then cuts out the trigger hit I did at the same time. I'm going to turn it off and raise my threshold. Thanks as always
@beyondbetrayal6 жыл бұрын
Ya, that is weird. Is your snare triggered? That could be possible, or you may just not be hearing the trigger? I don't use that setting and have never experienced that. Let me know what you find out
@chiefjeef92676 жыл бұрын
beyondbetrayal ok that was the problem. With noise cancel and a nice amount of muffling, I was able to set the threshold super low, all the way to 1, and the snare wouldn't trip the trigger. However, when playing heel toe stuff, it would cancel a couple hits when I hit the snare. I think playing the noise "trips" the noise cancel, and tm-2 just cancels whatever is happening at the time, that's my guess. So I turned it off, and set a real threshold and everything is good now. Tl;dr don't use the noise cancel features when playing heel toe, I think it's finicky and can even cancel out some hits when you hit the snare.
@beyondbetrayal6 жыл бұрын
Awesome... Each setting effects each other too but work slightly different. I could see maybe using a SLIGHT bit of noise cancel if your snare is actually setting it off, but sensitivity and threshold seem to curb that usually. Thanks for the update.

hi, I need to use the TM2 on the cajon and then use 2 piezos on the same surface, which setting should I use to get 2 separate sounds if possible?
@beyondbetrayal3 жыл бұрын
It depends i guess. For ease, Id use one trigger in each port, unless you have a way to split them into 1 plug. (TM-2 can support 2 stereo cables). So with one left and one right you should be good. do you want to trigger both sounds at the same time? or 2 different spots. If it's two spots it will be tricky and you will really have to play with sensitivity and threshold. It's the same rules. low sensitivity and high threshold to prevent false triggers.

what type of second mixer you are using?
@beyondbetrayal5 жыл бұрын
Just a tiny little Behringer. Basically, II run the TM-2 in mono. So one of the outputs goes to the front of house. The other to the mixer. I run my headphones from the mixer. That way I can adjust my ear volume without messing up the sound at the front of house because the knob controls both. Also you can get a monitor mix into the mixer and have independent control over the kick and the IEM mix. With the XLR input I could run an overhead or something If I wanted also but it's mostly just to adjust the kick volume.
