Hello. I am sure that there are many of these threads and that you are sick of them already but I have not found a thread that answers my question and I also find that when it comes to pedals, the choice is very much personal like fitting a shoe. Even though this is the case, some input would be very helpful.
This month, I will be getting the Alesis DM10 Studio kit and I will need pedals for my new kit. I currently play with Iron Cobra Power Glide double bass pedal on my acoustic kit and I am satisfied with them as I know that good technique enables one to play quickly and solidly on even the worst pedals. However, I would like to buy pedals that are slightly newer and smoother than my ICs. I have been looking around at what people have been choosing recently and tested a few pedals including the Demon Drive which is very smooth but a bit too expensive. I have been interested in the Mapex Falcon with direct drive adapter and the Speed Cobra by Tama. I live in South Africa so I cannot get the Axis pedals and all pedals cost double the price here so please keep that in mind. I play metal and some jazz and I am 6 feet tall with size 11 US shoes. If you have any suggestions, please let me hear them.
