Hello all. I've recently purchased Pulse Percussion's Red Hot triggers (see pic) to pair with my fancy new Roland Octapad. I have one trigger on my snare, and one on my kick.
Here's the problem: I cannot, for the life of me, get the snare trigger to stay on my snare for longer than an hour or so. What sticks to a snare drum?
The double-sided tape that came with the trigger was completely ineffective. Since then I've tried:
- Stronger double-sided tape;
- Duct tape;
- Silicone caulking; and
- Carpet tape
None have lasted longer than an hour of playing. I've had silicone adhesive and gaffer's tape recommended to me, but I'd love to hear some first-hand recommendations of What Works.
My kit is an older Yamaha Stage Custom; snare is a Yamaha steel with a coated Evans batter head.
