Since I integrate my electronics with my acoustic kit fairly often, I'm interested in finding out the following:
- What size (dia) hex arms can the pads be connected to?
- Are the cymbal triggers compatible with a regular cymbal stand or cymbal boom arm from a rack (like Gibraltar for example)?
- Can the DrumIt 5 kick pad work without the rack? I'd like to be able to use it as an auxiliary kick and the rack setup won't permit this.
- Will the hex-rod mounting for the DrumIt 5 module work with a Gibraltar/Dixon style rack clamp, or is it too narrow a diameter to be held securely?
Optimally, I'd like to have 2 tom pads on the right, 2 on the left, the snare and kick on the left (as an Aux snare and kick) when setup with my acoustic drums and cymbals.
I'm also interested in setting up to more closely replicate my acoustic setup for those instances when the electronics would be the preferred choice (due to space, volume control, etc). I use a 1 rack, 2 floor tom setup and the DrumIt 5 rack design just isn't flexible enough to do this.
