Cheers Moose, I was just trying to explain to Dave that there is NO pad/trigger sound coming out from the module/brain output, any sound exiting the module is generated IN the module, which of course is the complete opposite of what happens to a guitar string sound using an amplifier to amplify the strings sound. This IS correct.
No, it isn't. An electric guitar pickup uses electromagnetic induction. You are not amplifying the sound made by the string. The fact that you can hear the sound made by the vibrating string is wholly secondary. This is exactly the same as the sound you hear when striking a mesh head (particularly if there's a properly tuned full reso head on the drum), which is also secondary to the vibration detected by the piezo trigger. |

Dear Moose, 100%, I will say it again, 100% of the sound output from a drum module IS created from scratch WITHIN the module, try attaching a Piezo to a kitchen table, hit it, trigger the drum module, tell the module to play a snare sound. You will hear a Snare sound from the output, not an amplified kitchen table sound.... You are JUST triggering the sound from the table/piezo.
Now mic up the kitchen table with a mic of your choice, plug the mic into your guitar amp, you will hear a kitchen table being amplified...
Need to move on now, losing the will to live...

What you actually said was "on an electronic drum you DO NOT hear the drum head/mesh/trigger impact sound"
You forgot to add the words "through the module output"
I do hear the impact sound from an e drum but of course not through the module output. Only the effect from the hit is heard.
That ambient impact noise is also not heard much when wearing headphones (unless they are the cheap ones)
Actual Fender string vibe(vibe is sound)is heard through the amp.
Hope we cleared it up ...
Right, so when ya getting the TD30 ? it's Supernatural you know
