Welcome to the beginning of the “kick drum technique” series, where we’re breaking down all the core aspects of bass drum technique in 4 consecutive lesson videos. Today we’re learning how we can make any bass drum pedal feel more high-end and expensive by optimizing some key adjustment points on the pedal. If you aren’t happy with how your pedal feels right now, we’re gonna fix that today.
The coolest thing about what we’re learning today is that you can make these particular adjustments on ANY pedal, regardless of whether it’s a $50 pedal or $350 pedal. That’s why I’m incorporating my all time favorite pedal, the DW9000 pedal...as well as the cheapest pedal I own. We’ll see how similar we can make these feel to each other.
The most powerful factor in pedal adjustment will always be beater length. Beyond switching out the beater, spring tension and beater angle probably tie for “second most important” adjustment points. Try these optimization techniques out for yourself, and see if you don’t love your pedal more afterward.

hot tip that nobody seems to ever cover: on a double bass pedal linkage, the angle (seen from above) needs to be the same between the slave pedal and linkage as between the master pedal and linkage. this maximizes the efficiency with which torque is transferred through the universal joints, so that less additional resistance is added

Exactly. Just adjusted mine. Slight learning curve but perfect action now on the slave pedal.

@helemaalnicks6215 4 жыл бұрын

I've tried different angles, and for me, the sweet spot is as much angle as I can catch it consistently without hitting myself on the top of the foot. Angle gives you some "free" return-energy. Usually you need to use more springtension to get the beater back quicker, but more spring tension = more energy/power needed for a stroke. Angle on the other hand, won't increase this need for power, so if you want the beater back quickly, increasing angle is the place to start I think.

Got a DW 9000... that is what they had at the pawn shop LOL! Cleaned and oiled it and it feels like new. I shortened the beater by about 1" to match my size (5'1") though I am playing a 24" kick and that made the pedal much quicker. It also no longer hits me in the shin. Don't mind if it isn't as loud as it could be, and neither does family when I am practicing. I can always mike the drums when I need to.

Fresh out of the box (3 months ago), my pedal was a little tight (although I didn't notice assuming a new pedal would be ready to go). After seeing Stephen do the spring/beater rhythm test in another video, I finally tried a little 3-in-1 oil, but it didn't seem to do much...maybe I didn't use enough, but I didn't want to drown it, since it's wet. Yesterday I went out and got some white lithium grease (just WD-40 brand), and there's a noticeable difference. 👍

Your comment "you don't want the beater to slow down before it hits the drum-head" helped me understand why my pedals felt the way they do. This one sentence caused me to experiment for a good 1/2 hour! A bit too much resistance right before the beater reaches the drum head. Apparently mine were timed a little too early. Alternatively, if I go beyond the apex of the beater swing I'm burying it too much and limiting the stroke.

The red hinge on the DW makes a bunch of difference it has bearings in it that keeps your foot pedal straight and that keeps things from wearing out and gives a more focused feel.

@wickedmartyn 3 ай бұрын

Push out the bearings in the pedal and replace with correct sized ceramic, or even just high performance steel bearings and press them back in. It's a never ending battle between spring tension, head rebound and friction, eliminate friction from the equation, will also make them feel smooth as silk!

Stephen, have you vere had the urge to play a Double Bass drum Pedal? Is it worth the effort, if one doesn't play Metal or other Alternative music that require Speed Drumming? I purchased a Mapex DB 500TW. Trying it now with mixed results. Yes, it allows to achieve faster double strokes or triple strokes, but I am conflicted on moving the left foot to switch form the Hi Hat to the second pedal...

@theredbaron057 Жыл бұрын

Another tip, since you showed adjustment using the beater memory lock, is to use those locks as weights to fine-tuning the beater feel. Slide down, lighter beater. Slide up, heavier beater. It's not a big difference, but it's noticeable. Then I just use a permanent marker to mark the memory location.

Steve, How do I stop my Tama 600 pedal from Bouncing against the Batter head of the bass drum. I have purchased both the Griffin you show in the Vid (which is really well made and sturdy), and a Tama Cobra 600. I can return either one since they were purchased via Amazon. The Tama beater is harder that the GRiffin beater and also the felt marshmallow one that came with the standard drum kit (relatively a cheap starter Grammon kit received as a XMAS gift from my wife to get back into drumming after 50 years - I'm 68 now). Any ideas? The Tama is very light and responsive, the Griffin a bit more stiffer with double chain drive, but a the beater really doesn't bounce the way the Tama does?

Good info! In my case my pedal was state of the art when it was new, the Slingerland take on the Ludwig Speed King, the Tempo King. It's a great pedal, but I noticed some squeaks so the info on the type of lubricant to use is great. I suspected dry, but as there is some rust on my vintage 70's relic some WD-40 would probably also be good.

Great job. Your advice on proper double pedal maintenance would be great as well! What needs to be done to keep them performing like new? Do the bearings, springs, chain-links, pins, shafts, couplings and universal joints need to be oiled/lubed? How, what and when to do it? Useful energy is lost via friction, especially on the slave pedal side, so it's important to reduce it as much as possible. Proper bar setup, lubrication and universal joint angles should be discussed as well. I have never seen a comprehensive video on this overall topic. PS: WD-40 attracts moisture that will cause rust. Thanks!

Thanks for the tips bro! I've got a DW MDD and it's a fantastic pedal, but I learned a BIG lesson last night. I'm play for several worship teams and I play on different kits; which, at times, is quite maddening! I had back to back rehearsals last night and rather than take my DW bass drum pedal with me for both rehearsals, I used the house pedal at my church and left my DW on my own kit at the ministry where I play on Friday nights...... HUGE MISTAKE! Even though I have tried to get the settings as close a possible, there is still a drastic difference between a chain driven pedal and direct drive. I could.barely get my doubles to fire effectively. I'll never make that mistake again! I look forward to the rest of this series... PEACE!!!

@jphifer2848 3 жыл бұрын

Every new pedal takes getting used to. To jump from a super high end DW MDD (an awesome feeling pedal!) to a house kit chain pedal is a substantial difference in terms of weight & smoothness. Not better or worse, just different. Most people won’t get acclimated to a very different pedal in a few minutes. Lots of touring cover band drummers who are constantly using back line kits take their own pedal for exactly this reason.

That ‘memory lock’ is actually a beater balancer used to get a double kick’s beaters even but it’s also used mainly to alter the moving weight. The higher you have it, the more weight which means you don’t have to change the beater length

The best quiet lube can be found at any bicycle shop. Spray or drip bottle of high quality full synthetic (clean) lube for bicycle chains. It will go on wet and then dry on its own in an hour or two with no need to wipe it off. This lube should last at least a year before needing any extra application.

@yqisq6966 Жыл бұрын

I wonder if there is some magic formula for the beater length, beater weight, and spring tension based on physics? Theoretically, a spring system can be either over-damped, critically damped, and under-damped. If it's under-damped, the beater will wobble back and forth a lot and mess up with your footwork. If it's over-damped, it'll feel heavy and slow. Between them there is a sweet spot for critically damped oscillator, where the beater should reset to it's neutral position fast and responsive.

Dry line will build up over time and junk up and restrict movement if overused. I prefer to #1 keep moving parts CLEAN. And to use a synthetic lubricant like a Tri Flow or any light lubricant meant for bike parts. Tri-Flow smells like bananas. I’m cleaning up a snare drum right now that have tons of a dry line used and there’s build up all over the tension rods, threaded inserts and even a bit on the outside of the lugs. The previous owner must have used another wet lubricant that reacted with the dry powered lube that resulted in a sticky paste.
