Positional sensing with regular triggers, possible?

[overg]

I was wondering if positional sensing is possible with regular triggers ( e.g ddrum red shots) or you must have roland center triggers and pads?

I'm almost sure you need to have a center trigger.

Quartztrigger on EBay sells Roland type cone triggers. They are of good quality and I have used them in many DIY projects.

Same here... excellent quality. I did a conversion of an acoustic Mapex kit several years ago, and the triggers have been working flawlessly ever since underneath mesh heads. Highly recommended as a cost-effective way to turn your A to E.

Yes, you do need a center-mounted trigger, for sure.

Assuming you have a module capable of PS.... Meaning a megadrum with the PS board, td12, td20 or td30.
