Best Double Bass Drum Pedal

[Ludwig USA]

The modern day pedals have way too many adjustments for my taste. I'm always down on the floor playing with all the settings just to see if I can make something better, It never ends!
Give me a set of pedals that I can take out of the box, clamp them to my hoops, put my feet on them, set the tension and do the frigg'in dance. Now that would be the best double pedal!

Anyone ever see or try these pedals?

No vids, and no worthwhile reviews that I could find...although I didn't do any real deep research. I say it's a no-go.

Plus, I didn't like the website. Now that may be shallow of me...it is, but oh well.

The idea seems....interesting, though!

Ya, not the best website, It hasn't changed in years. I called and talked to the owner some 8 to 10 years ago, he said there is a rubber bladder that holds the air pressure and the bladder is pretty much bullet proof. $225.00 for a single and $575.00 for the double. If you go to the website you can see the adustable cam system.The owner is an engineer for one of the auto companys and plays drums, he said at one point he took the pedal to the namm show and a japanese guy from pearl drum bought one of the pedals and took it back home with him and then the next thing ya know pearl comes out with there adjustable cam system. Pearl just had to do the cam system a little bit different because of the patent, so they went with the plastic changable cams. Pearl must not of been interested in the air pressure idea or they couldn't find a way to redisign it to get around the pattent.

It seems like a cool concept but there just isn't anywhere to try one out and the company dosen't seem to have done anything to promote it.

I've played dozens of different pedals. My favorite is the Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive double pedal. Extremely smooth and I love the fact it can change between a long board and a short board.

You will get a hundred opinions and they are all good for those expressing them . My opinion is this . I think pedals are like shoes, you have to walk with them on! . But here is how I buy pedals . First I spend a lot of time playing one that is set up correctly in the music store . I go back at least 3 times and play that pedal for 15 minutes to a half hour minimally. Then I go back and try the others that I am interested in the same way. Then I find out the return policy , and if it meets with my approval, I buy the one that I like the best and bring it home . I save all the boxes receipts, packing materials, everything and play my regular practice routine for at least three different sittings . I bought pedals one month ago. First, Tama Iron Cobras, then after 3 days I hated them, took them back, then dw 9002 another 4 days liked them a lot but the footboard after tons of different adjustment just didn't feel right, guess what? ,back to the store and ended up with a pair of Tama Speed Cobras that I had tried originally and didn't like them . Bought them, tweaked them and played them over a week and I love them. The guy at guitar center hates me and youi know what I sa, y to h--ll with him. lol. I am happy!

I made a few custom heel risers out of longer screws and nuts.

I cant do this in any other pedal.. its way more comfortable for me
