Hearing Stephen play drum always reminds me how much I suck, so its about time I took him out of his comfort zone. Back when we were planning the 2nd kids drum set video I was asking about his double bass chops. Well, turns out we both aren't the best so we ditched that idea. So I thought it would be fun to check out The Duallist D4 pedal and see if it made us any better. This thing is trippy... It works like a normal bass pedal BUT theres an extra beater that plays on the up-stroke when lifting off the footboard. It DEFINITELY takes some getting used to and probably a bit more setup time than we did. We played on it for about 15 mins before recording the tracks, and well, its pretty obvious 😂 From playing on it for that short amount of time I don't think we will be replacing out double bass pedals anytime soon...

It's a completely different way to go about double bass. It's a device that has a learning curve of its own, and many drummers cheat with this pedal by putting no power in and instead triggering their drums. Some people can do some good stuff with them, though, like quad bass.

@Ortho-leaning Really? Tell that to Dave Lombardo, Nico Mcbrain, Gene Hoglan, and many of the old school drummers who somehow managed to do so just fine without any shortcuts. Thrash metal drummers play at high speeds without triggers all the time, yet they sound good. On the flip side, you get all the crappy modern metal (core/tech/djent) drummers who flex their drumming skills and shit but half of them use triggers to shortcut their way into achieving the desired velocity and consistency, leading to drums that sound the same with every hit and have no life or dynamics to them. Why would you bother micing up a bass at that point and not just get an electronic pad? That would save you so much space and money and the sound engineer's wouldn't have to mic up and fuck around with a drum you'll never really use, since you'll just replace it with a sample.

You have just relieved an underlying anxiety issue that I’ve had for 4 years. LOL. I purchased this pedal only because of the claim of producing doubles with a single pedal and because I am also an above the knee amputee (left leg). Man I buried myself into this pedal for 3 weeks straight and actually started to get it. That flies out the window the minute that you go back to a standard single pedal. Your quote is true, one must commit completely to this pedal only. I have come to the conclusion that I don’t need to rip double bass that much. Carry on……

Play around with your floor Tom. Getting more bass out of your Floor Tom tone and getting it more punchy, then hitting it with a stick between your kick hits, will create the illusion of double bass drumming. Moreover, it will sound better than any double bass pedal as you're using two drums. There's a reason why amazing double bass drummers like dave lombardo, Gene hoglan, Paul Bostaff, etc. Don't use double pedals and instead use two drums with regular single pedals - according to an interview with Dave Lombardo, he basically said that if you're hitting one drum over and over again fast, you're deadening the previous hit with the next hit, as this next hit will essentially stop the drum playing, which means you don't get as good and full of a sound as using two drums, where both drums get hit independently and get to ring out nicely before the next hit, giving a fuller tone. You can also use two different sized drums or tune them differently to get more nuanced sounds. The floor tom trick is pretty popular, but a drummer who uses this really well is El Estepario Siberiano, who even covers metal songs that contain loads of double bass drumming with one foot, using his floor tom as a second bass drum. Recently, I've also seen that he put up a bigger bass/gong drum up on legs like a floor tom to be able to get those sounds easier.

I know a guy who epoxied a shoe to his one so that he could have some control on the upstroke. It actually worked pretty well until one show when he forgot his carpet and the bass drum started creeping forward, we all thought he was going to get dragged with it and have a horrible time but he was able to yank using his foot and drag the drum back into position. The downfall came after 25 mins of pushing and pulling, the shoe became unstuck and then he couldn't play properly, or drag the drum back from the edge of the riser. Fond memories.

The Dualist has been occasionally making some fuss in the metal community for something like 10 years. For every one person who can *Kind* of play it, you have 500 others who wouldn't even bother because of how inarticulate and un-intuitive it is. The fact that most drummers can't name a single notable drummer who uses regularly should say enough. Also, even when you learn to play it correctly - you need to use triggers of some variety to make up for the totally inconsistent power that the pedal produces. Which of course artificially inflates the price to use the pedals in any sort of environment where your bass drum needs to be heard.

The only drummer I know by name who uses one of these regularly is Will Calhoun of Living Colour: He uses two kicks, his main is a 22 with a Sleishman double pedal (the pedal where both pedals are offset from the center) and a 20 on his left with this Duallist pedal. It's an interesting design and he makes it work, but I don't think I would ever buy this for myself as it doesn't feel natural for me or like something I'd personally have a use for. But if it suits you then by all means go for it!

You know what I like about this video? It goes against the idea of perfectionism. We see all these videos of all these awesome drummers and we just assume they sit down at the kit and magic happens. We don't see the practice or the struggle when something new challenges them. You both weren't afraid to post a video of yourselves not playing at 100% and it's such a refreshing change.

As "difficult" as playing with that pedal was for them the video was endlessly hilarious! Lol. An experience like this can make an seasoned drummer remember was it can be like to be a beginner. Also it would force someone to practice like a beginner when they may not have in a LONG time. Lol. Cool video. Thanks for posting.

More than 20 years ago now, at the British Music Fair, I saw a pedal called 'VRUK', which was a heel/toe strike arrangement with just the one beater. The demo guy was incredibly good on it and if you're into that sort of stuff, I would have thought that drummers would love it, but it just seemed to fade away!
