Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
For over thirty years, Meinl has established itself as a key reference in modern percussion, with a philosophy centered on innovation and quality. The Cajon Pedal Mount fits within this approach: it is an accessory designed to expand the possibilities of the cajon, meeting the current needs of musicians who want to incorporate foot playing without sacrificing stability or ease of setup.
Who This Drum/Support Is For
This support is aimed at cajon players from beginner to advanced levels who want to add a "drum set" dimension to their playing, especially in acoustic accompaniment. It is particularly suitable for pop, unplugged rock, folk, chanson, modern flamenco, or any hybrid set where a more pronounced bass drum pulse is desired, while maintaining the touch and musicality of the cajon.
Features and Innovations
The principle is simple and effective: you place the cajon facing you on the support, then the rectangular wooden plate positions itself behind the two front legs of the cajon to hold it firmly. This plate is adjustable to fit the depth of your instrument. A rubber contact area where the pedal attaches helps keep it in place while protecting the support from marks and scratches-an essential detail for regular use on stage or in rehearsal.
Sound
Although this support does not alter the cajon's construction, it has a direct impact on the bass response: the dense and rigid Baltic birch provides a stable base and limits unwanted vibrations. The four rubber feet under the support improve floor grip and help preserve the clarity of the fundamental bass tone by preventing the whole setup from "slipping" or collapsing under pedal contact. For a rounder kick sound that respects the cajon's body, using a soft foam beater is recommended.
