If you haven’t seen the documentary, watch it. I almost recorded there with my band before it shut down in 2017 - totally regretting that now. Both these packs were tracked at Fairfax Recordings in Los Angeles, CA.įor those unaware, Fairfax Recordings, now permanently closed, was formerly legendary recording studio Sound City. 1 and 2 were obvious choices for my first two ADpaks.

Upon purchasing, you’ll get to pick your libraries, also known as ADpaks.įairfax Vol. If you get Addictive Drums Custom or Custom XL, you’ll get to choose libraries, MIDI packs, and add-ons, as I did. While not a bad thing, I lacked more organic and natural samples in my collection. First, many of the libraries I already owned were more suited to metal and rock production. This combination of mesh and settings offers excellent trigger consistency, dynamics and responsiveness on all acoustic drum sizes from 6-22”.I love that I was able to choose what I wanted. These are some settings that work well with RT triggers and Roland dual PowerPly mesh heads.

You can easily build a hybrid acoustic and electronic kit using the TD-17 module and RT series acoustic triggers on an acoustic drum kit.īe aware that the default trigger pad types for the RT triggers are designed for acoustic acrylic drum heads which have completely different characteristics than mesh heads. Triggering is unreliable and unpredictable when using the module with RT series acoustic triggers and mesh heads.Setting the threshold value too high will reduce the ability for low-velocity strokes to be heard so be careful. Start with the threshold set to 0 and increase it a value at a time until false triggering stops. The ideal setting is the lowest setting possible where unwanted hits are not heard but your quietest hits are. Remember that the threshold setting determines when the module starts responding to hits. This value will be wildly different for each trigger type so take your time and go through each trigger individually on the kit. Tap lightly on the drum while adjusting to determine when the sound switches on and set the threshold accordingly. Threshold determines when the module starts responding to hits.

You can easily revert to factory settings at any time by re-selecting the trigger type, performing a factory reset or by saving your factory module settings to an SD card for quick recall.įeel free to experiment and find your favorite settings, safe in the knowledge that the original factory settings are but a few button pushes away. This means once you change the TD-17 Trigger Settings, you have effectively customized the kit to suit your playing. Note: These settings are ‘Global’ and affect all kits.
