Because of the DST-1’S unique design it has been the go to for drummers around the world as the creative force in their drumming arsenal. Famous Hip Hop producers have used them to create on the spot drum loops by attaching them to everything from mixing consoles to the arm rests of studio chairs. Drummers have attached them to drum racks, cowbells, wood blocks, cajons, and countless other applications to facilitate the creative artist in each of them.
Magnatrack’s DST-1 is capable of triggering any drum regardless of the head type or size. All other drum triggers rely on a firm playing surface just to function. Many of them contain bits of foam and rubber that causes velocity gaps and an unnatural feel.
The DST-1 by Magnatrack stands alone in unrivaled performance, and it’s ability to eliminate malfunctions common to other drum triggers.
When compared to the expensive high end drum pads the DST-1 is able to produce a much more fluid human like response. Since the DST-1 mounts to both sides of the drum head it doesn’t rely on foam cones or stiff multi ply drum heads in order to trigger properly. Magnatrack’s DST-1 puts you the artist in control of your drum kit. You can now focus on your style and performance. The DST-1 from Magnatrack will be there to capture it.
