Drum Throne Systems
Drummers using headphones or earbuds with a personal mixer for live monitoring benefit tremendously
by adding a tactile transducer to their setup. The tactile transducer allows a drummer to feel the low
frequency components of the mix (primarily the kick drum and the bass instruments), adding detail to the
monitor mix that may have been lost in the transition from stage wedges to head-worn monitoring. For
drummers using electronic kits, adding the BOOM-1 along with a drum throne-mounted transducer such
as Aviom’s CTT-1 helps return some of the low frequency energy that may have been lost when switching
from an acoustic to an electronic drum kit.
Connecting a Headphone Output
The first system example uses a personal mixer with a stereo headphone audio output such as an Aviom
A320 or A-16II Personal Mixer. The A360 Personal Mixer’s headphone output can also be set up according
to these instruction, but note that the A360 has a dedicated mono XLR line-level output designed to
make connecting a BOOM-1 even easier. See the second example that follows in “Connecting a Line-Level
Source” on page 19.
The following items will be used:
• Personal mixer
• TRS-TRS 1/4-inch cable
• BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor
• Drum throne
•
CTT-1 Clamp-On Transducer and its locking speaker cable
• Headphones or earbud monitors
Start with the power off on all devices. Follow these steps to connect the system:
1. Connect the CTT-1 Clamp-On Transducer to the drum throne.
2. Connect one end of the TRS 1/4-inch cable to the headphone output of the personal
mixer.
3. Connect the other end of the TRS cable to the

on the BOOM-1. (You can use
either the front- or rear-panel headphone connectors.)
4. Using the locking speaker cable that comes pre-connected to the CTT-1, connect it to the

jack on the BOOM-1 processor rear panel.
5. Connect the drummer’s headphones or earbuds to the Headphone

jack on the
BOOM-1 front (or rear) panel.
6. Set the BOOM-1 DSP Profile DIP switches for the CTT-1. See “Transducer System Select”
on page 13
7. Power up the personal mixing system and the BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor.
8. Create a basic mix on the personal mixer and then raise the level of the

control
on the BOOM-1 front panel to add in the tactile transducer.
