There are three triggering modes: Simple with minimal CPU load works perfectly for about 90% of the time; Advanced (available in both the Pro and Platinum versions) provides the best performance possible and includes a smart algorithm that minimizes false triggering and maximizes sensitivity; and Live (available in both the Pro and Platinum versions), a zero-latency mode for using Drumagog as a "drum brain" for drum trigger pads.

One of the mainstays of Drumagog has always been the dynamical, random and positional multi-sampling (the .gog file system) for the ultimate in acoustic drum and drummer realism. Another unique feature is Visual Triggering that simplifies the adjustment of the triggering controls using a scrolling real-time waveform display that shows which incoming hits will trigger Drumagog and which will not.

I installed Drumagog into my Pro Tools rig and was instantly replacing kicks, snares and toms with ease. It's so easy and fast that it does not cut into my quick-paced mixing process with time-consuming trigger tweaking. BFD Triggering (only available in Drumagog Platinum and BFD versions) triggers the whole library of BFD's sounds--cool! I like everything about Drumagog: the ability to mix the original track with a new sample--even if there is wanted leakage on the original; and Drumagog's way to convert drum hits into MIDI for triggering of external drum machines and virtual instruments like Halion and GigaStudio.
