So I've had my DW9000 single pedal for about 2 years now and in not so typical fashion for me I've had a tendency to want to tinker with my setup and not just my pedal.
So anyway I decided I wanted to give the strap that comes with the pedal a try this morning I've heard it has a little lighter feel to it than the standard double chain drive. Mark my pedal for the footboard angle so I can get the chain in the same position if I switch back and so I can get the strap lined up in the same position I had the chain. Swapped them out hooked it up to my bass.................................
Ummm WOW what a difference! Definitely provides a lighter and dare I say slightly quicker feel. I honestly felt this pedal was butter smooth before but now it's like gliding on ice. First impression after an hour of playing is the strap is staying on, though time will tell.
If you haven't tried a strap drive it might be worth your time to do so ;-)
