If an acoustic drum kit already sounds great, why do so many drummers, even professionals with custom top of the line acoustic kits, put triggers on them?

Most drummers who trigger from acoustic (hybrid) drum kits are blending both the acoustic and perfectly processed electronic drum sounds. This will commonly “color” the sounds and “fatten” your overall sound up. Electronic drum sounds can’t “go out of tune” like an acoustic drum. Drummers also commonly use a mix of acoustic and electronic drums to add sound effects or the exact sounds they had previously recorded in the studio.
