I just bought the 310 dbl. At first it felt uncontrollably fast but now that Im used to it I love it. I like it even better with the Cobra Coils that I added.
310 it's a good choice. I practice at home with them a lot. But now i move to Dyna-Sync and its a whole new level. Don't forget to subscribe John and thank you for watching.
I noticed that too, but, I don't know if I trust the audio because the two setups are so different. It's clearly not the same day, and the microphone is in a totally different place (because apparently he got a lefty version of the 910?). I know they don't have the same beaters, but the pad sounds completely different (much more different than I'd expect). The metronome even sounds different. I would love to hear from Francis: is the difference in mechanical noise as drastic as it comes across in these videos?
The noise of 310 and 910 are almost the same. Once you buy it doesn't have any weird noises, but after 2 years it gets some noises. I realize the new version (dyna-sync) it's much much better in that field. I've use the same camera and equalization, the 910 have 3 years of practice, the 310 it's like brand new.
@@francisfernandezcappolaWhat makes it best for practice ? I have the mapex falcon double pedals and I feel like they're slow so I wanted to upgrade to 310 for more speed and control. I'm using an e kit alesis strike pro. I would be using it primarily for covers and recording
Had these bad boys for only about 1 hour and am floored at the smoothness and quality of the pedal! It’s extremely light and just easy to play fast on. Don’t let the price tag scare you off. They blow my dw double bass pedal outa the water for being smoother and less bulky.
Very cool comparison. It would be great if you could do a comparison with the new dyna-sync direct drive and the 910 speed cobra also! I love my 910s, but I've never tried direct drive and it is tempting... Damn Gear Acquisition Syndrome :D
Be aware that while direct drive is seen as an improvement to most folks, it is simply different. There is no lag in the direct drive vs the chain (primarily noticed in the return part of the stroke) which will improve the feel of very high speed (say 230+ bpm) strokes...however, many people have learned to play on a chain drive and there will be a new learning curve for direct drive. I find mid tempos (150-200 bpm) to be harder to play with direct drive because the rebound of the beater drives the footboard upward to my foot causing me to actually speed up when I'm not intending to. Whereas the slack in the chain drive creates a "helpful" lag that allows me to control the speed.. One could always learn different technique to compensate, just be aware it WILL feel different. How much that matters to you is up to you.
And if you ever have doubts about how much speed can be generated with a chain drive, there are plenty of metal drummers using them....just look at Gene Hoglan as an example.
I’ve put speedo’s on Iron Cobra jr’s. Just need to find the right sized mini bearings I imagine it would be the same kind of upgrade for the Speed Cobra 310’s.,
@@ПавлоВенгерко well it could be choice! But i don't agree with speding money on a great low budget pedal. Instead we should save money to buy Dyna Sync and that should be the real upgrade to do!!

Just a follow up now that I've got the pedals. It's a world of difference from my el-cheapo pedals, so smooth and feelsome, and the foot-boards are BIG, perfect for my big feet, and just what I hoped for :D
I am having problems hitting consistent doubles with my 310 on the right single side of the pedal, It is becoming super annoying and I have changed beaters and adjusted it almost every time I use it.. Beginning to think this pedal was a bad choice, can anyone help. Again I have adjusted the cam beater angles, beater heights, and springs from loose to slightly tight and too tight. IDK???
The pedal is never the problem. Work consistently on your doubles. From 100 to 200 bpm 1 hour a day. After 1 month let me know if the pedal is still bad!!
Nah it's the pedal, i can hit doubles consistently with my old Iron Cobra all day, look at the reviews on this pedal people complaining about accuracy. @@francisfernandezcappola
Hi Francis.. thank you for this thorough Comparison video for both pedals nearly not möush have done like this.., i also was looking for 310 series for practice purpose (i am using Mapex Reptor direct drive in years..) also my aim to upgarde it by changing the righgt one "noneangle adjustable beater" with TAMA HP94N beater (Tama 900 series) and Cobra coils underneath of both pedal boards, so i think it will be more or less 910 series :) do you think that i could achive my intention?
Hello @ww The most important thing is your muscle memory and your ability to control. However, every detail is important. Soon I'll make a video about bass drum beaters, because I think they also have a lot of influence. Regarding the Cobra coil, this has some importance, but it won't make a big difference. Don't forget the bearings on the speedo ring.... that's important... :) Good luck!
@@francisfernandezcappola Thank you for the warning.. i have a acouple of experiences at assamble and disassembles these lovely things and maybe i will skip the cobra coil thing, thanks again... :)

IMO, The 310 is not as noisy, which makes it better for the studio.
I noticed that too, but, I don't know if I trust the audio because the two setups are so different.

(I didn't watch the entire video before commenting. Please ignore me, hahaha. He immediately answered all these questions.)
That's weird. My 910s are sliky smooth and silent.
Probably because it's still new.

It's the best double bass pedal to practice.

Hi i am new to drums but I loved the feel of speed cobra is it good for single pedal? Because everybody talking about double
