The ddrum Red Shot Triggers should be mounted on acoustic drums. They can be used with ordinary
drum heads as well as with mesh heads. When used together with the ddrum4 SE module you’ll get the
same great dynamic response as with ddrum4 Pads. The ddrum Red Shot Triggers come in two different
models: the Tom (and snare) Trigger, and the Kick Trigger.

This one should be fastened to one of your tom or snare tension rods. The Triggers use an ordinary
mono-jack output connector. Use standard mono-jack cable to connect it to the ddrum4 SE module. The
pin configuration is as follows: tip is hot (signal), and sleeve is ground. All snare sounds can be found on
Channel 2 and all tom tom sounds can be found on Channels 4, 5 and 6 in the factory kits. We recom-
mend you to use these inputs for your Red Shot Tom Triggers. The highest pitched tom is usually located
on Channel 4 in a ddrum4 SE module.

Mount the triggers on you drums. Press softly downwards towards the drumhead and tighten the tension
screw that locks the Tom Triggers to the rims. Make sure the screws are firmly tightened but not too hard.
Don’t worry, they will not come off. When mounting the Kick Trigger, remove one tension screw. Put
the tension screw through the hole of the Red Shot Kick Trigger and back on the drum again. If neces-
sary, also apply the supplied distance washer to make the entire trigger sensor surface touch the drum head
(see picture below). You may have to bend the trigger plate slightly to fine-adjust the position.
