which inputs are best suited to bass drums?

Postby bladelawless » Thu Dec 15, 2016 5:05 pm

I have two bass drums on my kit and wondering which inputs are best suited for bass drums on a 56 input MD with positional sensing, obviously I won't need positional sensing on the bass drums.

On the back (from left to right looking from the back) top row:
1. HiHat pedal/controller input
2. Kick
3. HiHat
4. Snare
5. Ride
6. Crash
7. Tom1
8. Tom2
9. Tom3
10. Tom4
11. Aux1
12. Aux2
13. Aux3
14. Aux4
15. Aux5
16. Aux6
17. Aux7


If both kick triggers are identical, then I suggest get a splitter, and use jack 2.

If each kick needs its own settings, then I suggest using jack 2 and jack 11 (or the next available unused aux). Remember to change trigger type to single piezo.

All inputs are equal (if not with Positional sensing addon) so you can use any inputs you want.
