I know this thread is from about a month ago, but I would like to say the remote speedy is pretty amazing. I played with the first one that was made. Bill came and did a clinic at the University of Arkansas and had it with him. He offered to sell it to anyone if they wanted it, and had I had the cash at the time, I would have bought it from him. That would have been an awesome item to have. Anyways, the pedal has the reaction time of a normal hi hat pedal, which I don't believe you have with any other remote pedal. That's just my $.02 though. I would highly recommend it over any other pedal though!
