Has any tried these yet? I can't find any reviews for them right now.

I don't use triggers. Sorry.

Edit:

Additionally what I wanted to say was from the other few drummers that I've spoken with on here and that I've read throughout these threads... they don't use triggers, preferring natural recording and tones. Nothing against triggers, just not much information we can share. Didn't want you to think that we were just ignoring you in your quest for knowledge.

Very good answer. SLK, why don't you try to help the guy instead of an useless post like that?

Drummer in my band uses Trick pedals (he's an endorsee actually), and is looking into getting a set of these. We like natural tones too, but it'd be fantastic to get some uberclicky sampled kicks in the foldback monitors for ease of use onstage.

But anyway, the technology seems fantastic. Actually having the triggers mounted on the pedal is great for when you're sitting down at random kits every night of a tour or whatever, and don't want to have to calibrate that shit all the time. Plus the feedback in the form of the LED flashing when it triggers is great... means you can rule out things easily when you're trying to troubleshoot why your sample isn't firing. If you've been looking at the demo video that was made by Mike Z from trick, if i recall correctly the design has changed since then (it was made quickly with prototype gear).

Did anyone else think of LA Gear brand triggers reading this? ...no... just me...?
