Do drum triggers muffle the sound of acoustic drums and if I put mesh heads on will work well?

Drum triggers do not muffle the sound of acoustic drums, but they do change the sound. Drum triggers are typically used to amplify the sound of acoustic drums, and they can also be used to create electronic drum sounds. When a drum trigger is used, the sound of the acoustic drum is picked up by the trigger, and then the trigger sends an electronic signal to an amplifier or other sound processing device. This allows the drummer to control the volume and sound of their drums, and it also allows them to create different sounds.

Mesh heads can be used with drum triggers, and they can help to reduce the volume of the acoustic drums. Mesh heads are made of a thin layer of plastic, and they are much quieter than traditional drum heads. When mesh heads are used, the sound of the acoustic drums is still picked up by the drum trigger, but the volume is reduced. This can be helpful for drummers who want to play their drums without being too loud.
