100% Birch Shells with Internal Triggers
Layering live drums with samples is more popular now than ever - both onstage and in the studio. And ddrum has responded in a way that only a creator of world-class drums and triggers could. The ddrum Hybrid 5 is a fully acoustic kit made from 100% birch shells with a crisp and modern tone that really cuts through a mix. Each drum in this shell pack is pre-fitted with ddrum's Acoustic Pro drum triggers with integrated XLR outputs. This makes it convenient to blend or completely replace drum sounds with samples from a workstation or drum module.

ddrum has been a leader in drum triggering since 1983. And in 2005, it changed the acoustic drum market again by offering boutique-style shell packs and hardware options to drummers of all levels. The ddrum Hybrid 5 is the natural marriage of these two ideas. Not only is the ddrum Hybrid 5 a pro acoustic kit, but it features top-class triggering to capture the real feel of your every performance.
100% birch shells deliver a crisp, cutting toneThe ddrum Hybrid 5 boasts modern shell sizes with a smart satin finish. We at Sweetwater especially liked the red hardware and badges - a nod to ddrum's trademark drum modules and triggers. The toms, kick, and snare in this shell pack are all made from 100% birch plies (6, 8, and 6, respectively). This gives the ddrum Hybrid 5 a cutting attack, a slightly scooped midrange, and dry overtones. The bass drum is full and responsive. And the snare and toms have a lively quality and quick decay that make them ideal for close-miking.
ddrum Acoustic Pro triggers are at the top of their classArtists from Butch Vig to Ginger Fish rely on ddrum's elite triggering to capture the feel and energy of their drum performances. The ddrum Acoustic Pro triggers mounted inside each shell in the ddrum Hybrid 5 shell pack exhibit a realistic dynamic response and good resistance to false triggering. This technology is far superior to triggering drums with microphones - one that makes it onvenient to blend sounds from a drum module or laptop for demanding live and studio applications.
