Glad it helped!

Thanks for sharing!

see how he has the pedal set to the long pedal.. that's how mine are but it feels "difficult" to do this technique.. wondering if I should change the pedals over to the older mid hinge

That is indeed genius

It’s called spiking, used in Musical Theater

Was a stagehand for a while! :)

Never seen someone not do that on their drum carpet

Cameron. What pedal is that?

Exactly!

The best

You're welcome!

I'll leave the fingers out of the video next time. 🤓

You're very welcome!

Yes it is quite high. Definitely helps with the rebound like you mention.

It's possible on all pedals.

Wonderful opener to a song

I was thinking there must be a way to make those strokes more even

I also thought there were easier ways, but the secret is pedal adjustment and a lot of practice until reaching the right time

There is. You need to strengthen both of the strokes individually.

Practicing the RIGHT things.

I was just asking about this. Spring tension needs to be really high, right? I've tried the technique with a mid and low spring tension and controlling the beaters is a lot more difficult. It does not bounce back fast enough. Although when I want to play with the ankles I find it harder, but that must be a matter of technique and strength.

Hey man! Yeah it's pretty tight. If you need step by step help with learning the technique check out my free mini course: academy.cameronfleury.com

Spring tension is pretty high.

Haven't tried one! Why might it be beneficial for this technique?

@@CameronFleury VRUK is a bassdrum pedal extension that let's you benefit from a good heel/toe technique, so it might be something for you as you're already working on your technique. Check out their site.

Of course!

The beaters are wood and the patches are Kevlar I believe. The reso head is also tuned finger tight.

@@CameronFleury thank you for your response! In the video the batter head appeared to be under moderately high tension. I apologize if my assumption is wrong. Either way, the sound is amazing! I have been trying to tune my bass drum to sound like that, if you have any advice, it would be highly appreciated!

@@enayetkhan9397 So there's 2 ways of achieving the metal "clicky" kick sound while still keeping the low end. Get a thick batter head like an emad ebony with the reso rings and tune it up till you get bounce from the beater. Keep the reso head and finger tight and use dampening and a kick port hole to adjust the tone to where you want it. OR you crank a regular double ply batter head up so that you get a lot of bounce, and then you shove pillows into the kick so that it pretty much completely covers the head from the other side. then finger tight on the reso and mic it with the mic facing up and towards the right or left "corner" of the kick about halfway into the depth of your kick drum through the port hole. Either way you basically just want no resonation. Beater heads don't matter as much as getting EQ patches for the kick and muffling it properly. Beater heads are more about what you find comfortable weight wise when you're playing. I use the speed cobra beaters with the rubber beater heads and they're also weighted in a way that you can adjust the weight to get it the way you want it. A lot of metal drummers like really light beaters and others like myself prefer the heavier ones cause you get more punch from the hit. The harder beater material you use, the less low end and more of a pitch you're gunna get out of the kick so remember that and adjust around it and it's pretty easy. the metal kick really is a lazy mans kick drum once you get used to it.

@@Southboundpachyderm thank you for such a detailed guide! I appreciate it and will try it out on my kick drum!

Similar, just different positions on the footboard!

Axis AL 2'S

Awesome!

Axis longboards

3 dots in the top right corner will have "save to playlist". I've wondered the same thing before.

We have apps that can replicate human feel on an instrument?

Pedals like this are not necessary to learn this technique!

Step 3: Alternate between feet.

This position is most comfortable for me!

What might it be?

@@CameronFleury “Heel/toe” technique is when the heel strikes the bottom of the footboard and the toe is striking the footboard shortly there after. Here the heel is not even on the footboard. You can call it what you wish sir. This is just not heel/toe.

@@anthemgunaether2914 Type in heel toe in KZfaq search and checkout where other drummers are placing their heels. You'll notice they're not on the footboard either. Of course I'm sitting back a little further on the footboard than most, but the motion is still the same.

​@@anthemgunaether2914 bro it's heel toe. You need to do more research. Most good heel toe drummers don't use the heel or ball of the foot they use the arch and foot area below toes

​@@MoshNbreakzagreed. you watch almost any heel toe metal drummer and very few actually touch the ground or the pedal with the heel. I've been told the name comes from the motion not the action. I, however, actually do tap my heels on the ground, but this is actually for timing not the actual stroke.

Okay, can do!

Yes a lot of people do

@@sportidiots6587 who?

🤣🤣🤣 wtf?

WTF are you saying? How the fuck no one has 2 pedals?

The aim for this technique is for both strokes to sound even. Nothing fake here, that audio is right from my phone.

bravo! :)

There's also a full length video on this channel for those who are interested in a full explanation.

🤦‍♂️

Im not puten anyone down theres just a much simpler way to play double strokes no effert required. ✌️❤️

Would love to see your interpretation!

@@CameronFleury dude id love to show u but i dont no how to make a vid here on u tube to show u.

@@CameronFleury check out a video by Wyatte Staff. He explaiains it the same as i would.
