Triggering drums

I use a full e-kit set-up myself, but as long as you have a ‘standard’ midi connection from your tabletop drum pad device to your DAW’s standard midi interface, then it will work without a hitch. If you’re using USB, well…there may be a hitch. Though USB should work too, I often find I have to jump through a hurdle or two before it’ll get recognized, where as standard midi works right out of the gate. For this reason, I use standard midi for everything.
