Recognizes your playing dynamics in a natural way

The ddrum Chrome Elite Kick Trigger was designed by ddrum to respond to your playing dynamics realistically, for a natural response across the entire drumhead.

Fits most types of molded hoops, no adhesive necessary

The ddrum Chrome Elite Kick Trigger requires no adhesive. Instead, it clamps easily onto the sides of standard drum hoops, so you can swap out the trigger onto different kits, if your needs require it.

Metal casing protects the specially designed transducer

The Chrome Elite Kick Trigger's transducer is softly pressed against the drumhead, and its metal casing protects it from accidental drum hits. What's more, the light pressure of the transducer against the head prevents any "damping" effect.

ddrum Chrome Elite Kick Trigger Features:

  • Recognizes dynamics for a realistic response

  • The specially designed trigger reduces crosstalk and double triggering
  • Fits most types of molded hoops
  • No adhesive is needed
  • Sturdy construction
  • All parts are interchangeable
  • Requires XLR-F trigger cable: Pin 1- Rim trigger, Pin 2- Head trigger, Pin 3- Ground
  • Trigger to Brain max length: 25 feet (a preamp must be used past 25' in length)
The ddrum Chrome Elite Kick Trigger makes way for a consistent, high-quality kick sound!

Spot on Accuracy

I tried other cheaper triggers on my kick without success. I was getting double triggering and other inaccuracies. I dont know how they do it but this trigger is spot on. Best kick drum trigger I have used yet and have been using electronic drums since the 80's.
Rated 2/5

Ehh.

I bought a snare, bass drum & 2 Tom triggers about 2-3 months ago, all Chrome Elite models. Last week at band practice, I started noticing missed notes in the middle of playing. Upon further inspection, I found that the black ground wire had come disconnected from the trigger pad. I re soldered it back on. Came to practice a couple days later & started noticing the same problem. I looked at the wiring first as that was the problem before & noticed the red hot wire had come disconnected. Tried to re solder that too & it just barely worked. Lasted Maybe 2 and a half minutes & the black ground wire had broke right in the middle! The trigger works great when it did…but that wiring is atrocious!!! You'd expect more from a well known company like Ddrum.
