drum parts p at your fi ngertips. Its 16 velocity-sensitive pads are perfect for playing the drum sounds in
your favorite fav software, launching loops and samples, or even controlling video projections—and applying
pressure pressur to the pads can generate any MIDI controller you wish. You also get eight knobs and four
faders freely f assignable to MIDI parameters such as volume, pan, pitch and effects. Pre-programmed
maps for f Live, Reason, GM Drum, XG Drum, iDrum and more make setup a snap. Connection and
power is via a simple USB cable.

You’re in Control
Trigger Finger is designed to put you in full command of your drum programming sessions. 16 pads give you immediate
access to plenty of drum sounds or other events you wish to trigger. You’ll fi nd the pad size provides just the right balance
of compact space and perfect touch. Speaking of perfect touch, Trigger Finger’s pads are both velocity and pressure
sensitive—and, unlike many control surfaces, you can map the pressure sensitivity to any MIDI parameter you desire for
that extra measure of expressive control. Its eight knobs and four faders are also fully assignable to any MIDI parameter
you want. With Trigger Finger, you’re in control.
Control Anything You Want
While our main focus in designing Trigger Finger
was drum programming, full programmability
means that you can use it to control any MIDI
devices you wish. Launch Clips or Scenes in
Ableton Live, trigger video clips in VJ software,
or fi re off samples in your favorite DJ software—or
anything else you can think of. There’s even
a MIDI Out jack that lets you connect external
MIDI gear.

“I used to lug around an MPC2000 on tours and it was a
staple part of my studio. Now it’s collecting dust because
the Trigger Finger replaced it years ago. M-Audio gear helps
me capture ideas quickly and easily.” —Morgan Page (DJ/
producer/remixer; Delerium, Nelly Furtado, Stevie Nicks)
M-Audio
Trigger Finger
is the drum pad
controller of choice
for pros like Linkin
Park, who can use any gear
they want. That’s because Trigger
Finger is about more than just the ability to trigger
sounds, samples and video clips—it’s about total performance
and total control. Other drum pads use piezo sensors that are susceptible
to vibration during performance, which can lead to false triggers. Trigger Finger uses superior FSR
(Force-Sensing Resistance) technology for rock-solid performance and dependability. Add that to the onboard
knobs and faders and we’re talking ultimate creative control—on stage and in the studio.
”With today’s computer platforms packing all the drums,
samples, and synths you need, the Trigger Finger is the
missing link between you and your fi rst great computer
beat.” —Scratch
