I have a question regarding triggers...

Grimortem

New member
I'm a real dumbass when it comes to recording. I just have a mixer hooked up to my computer and I hit record and it records, so thats all I know. I've wanted to learn more about recording drums though. I use an Alesis MultiMix USB thing with 4 mic inputs and 8 channels I think. I have 2 overheads mics that pick up everything, so I hav'nt any need for other mics yet. I've been hearing alot about triggers lately, my question is:
a) what are triggers?
b) how much is a decent trigger?
c) what do they do?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
