Frequently Asked Questions

While it *might* work with other modules, the dual trigger functionality is specifically designed for the TD-6V, so compatibility isn't guaranteed.
The rubber surface is firmer and offers less rebound than mesh, providing a more controlled, dampened feel, but some drummers find it less natural.
You can, but you’ll only utilize the single head trigger, losing the rimshot functionality and potentially missing out on the pad’s full sonic potential.
