Sensor sensitivity on Evans dbOne vs dbZero?

I’m considering trying out a dbOne head in place of the dbZero on my kick in particular, and I was wondering more generally if the presence of additional foam dampeners on the dbOne line affects the sensitivity of the sensors?
Curious if anyone’s tried both and has any thoughts.

Thanks!

Hi @rrv24 - shouldn’t be a problem on the kick. Sensitivity is not as much an issue on the kick as drums you play with a stick.

In general, we prefer not to use the dBOne heads on the snare, though, with Sensory. We find that the double layer design can cause some odd issues with the sensor signal. With regular snare drums, the wires are on the bottom head and don’t affect the signal, but with the dBOne “snare” built into the top head you get unpredictable results.

This is good to know, thanks @tenoch !
