Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
This double pedal fits within a modern hardware approach: more precision in adjustments, faster installation on the bass drum, and enhanced stability on the slave pedal side. The goal is clear: to offer smooth and consistent playing even at high tempos, while maintaining a crisp and familiar "chain drive" feel.
Target Users for This Drum/Hardware
It is particularly suited for intermediate to advanced drummers seeking a reliable double pedal to work on left foot consistency, dynamic control, and speed. Very comfortable in metal, rock, and fusion, it remains relevant in pop and funk when precise attack and stable mechanics are desired.
Features and Innovations
The tension spring adopts a new locking system to secure your settings over time. The narrower base reduces floor footprint, practical for tight setups. Regarding installation, the new hoop clamp system aims for simpler and more consistent tightening on the bass drum hoop. Finally, the universal joint is adjustable with a single nut, saving time while maintaining clean alignment between the two pedals.
Sound
On a pedal, the "sound" mainly depends on the attack and how the strike is transmitted to the drumhead. The two-surface beater allows modulation of the tone: one side often favors a sharper and clearer attack, the other a rounder and more balanced strike. The chain drive provides a responsive feel that facilitates fast strokes, doubles, and accents, with consistent articulation between the main and slave pedals.
