Bass drum pads are electronic drum kit parts that play the part of the bass drum in your electronic drum kit. You can use a bass drum pad with any regular bass drum pedal. When your pedal's beater hits the pad, it will send a signal to the drum module, which in turn triggers the kick drum sound (or anything else you want it to play). It works just like the snare & tom pads. Do you have an acoustic drum kit that you want to embellish with electronic sounds and effects? Then why not check out our assortment of triggers, which includes bass drum triggers.
